vb.org Archive - Everquest 2 Postbit Mod

This Modification will walk you through creating user profile fields that will output Everquest 2 icons in your users' postbit with the addition of the postbit_legacy template. The coding is very similar to a great WoW mod by gmrstudios, found here. This template modification will generate a total of five (5) icons for your users. I have provided the icons from Everquest 2 as well as personally created 1-100 icons for the Adventure and AA levels. The post

To begin, you'll need to add some new single selection menu fields. Make sure you note the assigned ID for each field added, you'll need it for coding input purposes. Also please make sure you remove the asterisks if you cut and paste or the input will not work. ^.^

Options:

Second field:

Fifth Field:

---
Sixth Field:

Options: (List numbers 1AA through 100AA; see post below for cut and paste)

---

Now that you've created the fields, cut and pasted the information into the options box, and made note of the fieldID for each new userfield, we need to modify the postbit_legacy template in your current style:

Find:

Code:

<if condition="$show['avatar']"><div class="smallfont">&nbsp;<br /><a href="member.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$post[userid]"><img src="$post[avatarurl]" $post[avwidth] $post[avheight] alt="<phrase 1="$post[username]">$vbphrase[xs_avatar]</phrase>" border="0" /></a></div></if>

Underneath, add:

Code:

<!-- EQ2 Postbit -->                

<if condition="$post[fieldA] && $post[fieldB]"><img src="images/$post[fieldA]_$post[fieldB].gif" alt="$post[fieldA] $post[fieldB]"></if>

<if condition="$post[fieldC]"><img src="images/$post[fieldC].gif" alt="$post[fieldC]"></if>

<if condition="$post[fieldD]"><img src="images/$post[fieldD].gif" alt="$post[fieldD]"></if>

<if condition="$post[fieldE]"><img src="images/$post[fieldE].gif" alt="$post[fieldE]"></if>

<if condition="$post[fieldF]"><img src="images/$post[fieldF].gif" alt="$post[fieldF]"></if>

<!-- / End EQ2 Postbit -->

Where fieldA = Race, fieldB = Gender, fieldC = Class, fieldD = Profession, fieldE = Adventure Level, and FieldF = AA Level (replace those with the ID given to you when creating the profile field.)

Now upload the attached icons to an appropriate image folder and change the img src coding to match the location. You should be set!
