The query would be:

PHP Code:


		
			
SELECT userid

FROM user

WHERE username = 'xxx'

xxx being the username

Use a script like this:

PHP Code:


		
			
<?php
error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE);
require_once('./global.php');
$getuser = $DB_site->query("
 SELECT userid,username
 FROM user
 WHERE username = 'admin'
");
$user = $DB_site->fetch_array($getuser);
echo("The userid for $user[username] is <b>$user[userid]</b>");
?>

xxx being the username

PHP Code:


		
			
$link = mysql_connect('host', 'username', 'password') or die('Could not connect to mySQL-server');

mysql_select_db('vbdb', $link) or die('Could not select vBulletin database');

'host' and so on must be replaced by the actual values of course.

Save mine as script.php and upload it to your forums directory and then go youforums.com/script.php. It should work
