PS3 Gamercard in postbit
 

This is a mod i made several Months ago it should work on any version on VB.
The Good part about my code is that if a person don't enter their PS3 info nothing will show up.

Special note: To Get this mod to work and show the ps3 gamercard, your users will have to go to www.us.playstation.com and login with their PSN info, which is their email address and password. Once they do this they will just need to click on "Portable Id" and this will make the PS3 gamercard show on your forums. Even forum members from the UK will still need to go to the US playstation site.. no need to go to the EU playstation site.

There is a few options to consider with adding this ps3 gamercard mod.

If you don't have a Field ID that allows user to add in the PS3 gamertag you will need to create one.

Heres how:
Create a new profile Field (remember the field id number)
Directions:
1. In adminCP go to user profile fields
2. Click on add new profile field
3. add The following
Title - PS 3 ID
Description -Type in PS3 GamerTag.
Default Value -leave blank
Max length of allowed user input - set to whatever you want
Field Length- Set to whatever you want
Profile Field Type -Single-Line Text Box
Field Required - yes or no ..up to you..i set mine to no
Field Editable by User - YES
Private Field - NO
Field Searchable on Members List - Yes or No ..up to you
Show on Members List -yes or no ..up to you
Regular Expression - Left mine blank
Which page displays this option - select "edit your details" from the menu
Finish - Click save and remember you fieldID number

Here is the Code, Add it to your Postbit Legacy.
Look for this
Add this code under it and replace the X in fieldx with the field id you just created.
Now here is another option.
If you have the Gamefields Icons mod installed you will use the following code.
Gamefields mod is here

So if you have the above mod installed use this code in your postbit legacy.

Look for this
Add this code under it

Also if you want to install Xbox Live Gamercard Block in Profile

You can add the code to show up in your profile under the xbox card.
You just need to edit the memberinfo_block_gamercard ..If anyone needs help with this just let me know.

Here is a demo of this mod in action

This works very well with UK and USA members.Just make sure all your forum members go to www.us.playstation.com even if they live out of the USA.

For some reaosn when users still go to the us.playstation.com site it still doesn't show. Mine works and i didn't need to go there but seems everyone else does why is this? How do i fix this?

No way to fix it..you have to go to US.playstation.com and login and then click portable id...sony's website has been acting up the last few days....just keep trying.
I can change the code to another site and if sonys site keeps acting up i will post an update.

As for your card working ..it is because at some point you did login over there..may even have been a long time ago

thanks

i told people to login they said they did but it still doesn't show up. Do they need to re-add it or something else?

It has to be just like their gamername..meaning it is CaSe aware...other than that just keep trying to login to sonys site...and it will work.

thanks

How do we put it on their profile..!? (what do we edit)

Just add "$post[musername]" to template.?
There is no XML to import.?

I have the Xbox Live Gamercard Block in Profile installed & the Gamefield Icons, but i dont see any directions on how to add the PS3 Gamercard to Profile.?

Maybe i missed it, but ive read this 5 times. lol

Thanks

you just need to add this code to it

<if condition="$post[gf_playstation]">
<img src="http://fp.profiles.us.playstation.com/playstation/psn/pid/$post[gf_playstation].png" scrolling="no" frameBorder="0" height="140" width="204">
</if>
</if>

under the xbox code in your memberinfo_block_gamercard

Thanks

PS- also click installed.

If I add a 2nd </if> there needs to be an added <if> at the beginning.!?
So this still does not work, & i will gladly click installed once it does work.

I realize the mod does work. I've seen it in use, but the directions on how to make it work are VERY sketchy at best, unless you are a coder & these errors are obvious.


Here is what is in that template now...
I'm guessing HERE is where im supposed to add the code.? (i tried it both before & after the </div>)


Thanks :cool:

Here is what the code should look like...i took out the extra "if" ...it is just a copy error i made. You should be able to just copy and paste this code now,It should work perfect.let me know if you need more help. Thanks

I dont know what else you changed, but it definitely did something. lol
I tried it without the extra </if> & that didn't work, but whatever you did i is working... Except.. the place it is supposed to show up is there, but it is a blank box with a red x that links to the trophy room (on PSN) of the correct account, just no image showing up on my site.?

Any idea.?
Where does that image come from.?

Thanks
