vb.org Archive - Easiest way to display username and avatar on external page?

Thanks for the response Lynne. Below is the code in the PHP file I used to use:

Code:



<?php

 //Change chdir to fit where your forum is. 

$real_path = realpath("index.php"); 

$real_path = dirname($real_path); 

chdir("$real_path/"); 

require('./global.php'); 

require('./includes/functions_user.php'); 

chdir("$real_path/");



echo "<body bgcolor=#D2E9FF>";



if ($vbulletin->userinfo['userid'] != 0)

        {

        echo "<p align=\"left\"><font size=\"1\" face=\"Verdana\">";

        echo "Welcome back ";

        echo "<br><strong> ";

        echo $vbulletin->userinfo['username'];

        echo "</strong>";

        echo "<br>";

        echo "<a target=\"_parent\" href=http://www.kirupa.com/forum/search.php?do=getnew";

        echo ">";

        echo "New Posts";

        echo "</a>";

        echo "<font face=\"Verdana\" size=\"3\">&nbsp;</font>";

        echo "| ";

        echo "<a target=\"_parent\" href=http://www.kirupa.com/forum/usercp.php";

        echo ">";

        echo "User CP";

        echo "</a>";

        echo "  ";

        echo "</font></p>";

        echo $vbulletin->userinfo['avatarid'];

        echo $bbuserinfo[username];

}

        

if ($vbulletin->userinfo['userid'] == 0)

        {

        echo "

        

                <p><font size=\"1\" face=\"Verdana\">Welcome, <strong>Guest</strong>.<br>

                Please log-in.<br>

                [<a target=\"_parent\" href=\"http://www.kirupa.com/forum/register.php\"><font color=\"#0000CC\">Register</font></a>]</font><font face=\"Verdana\">

                </font><font size=\"1\" face=\"Verdana\">[<a target=\"_parent\" href=\"http://www.kirupa.com/forum/login.php\"><font color=\"#0000CC\">Login</font></a>]</font><font size=\"1\"> </font></p>

                

                ";

        }



// setup avatar if exists

$avatar = fetch_avatar_url($vbulletin->userinfo['userid']);

if ($avatar != '' AND $vbulletin->options['avatarenabled'])

{

    $avatarurl = $avatar[0];

        echo "<img src=";

        echo $avatarurl;

        echo "/>";

}  



?>

Thanks,
Kirupa

Actually Lynne - this is really bizarre, but it works now. I just tried it out again, and everything works perfectly.
