1) setup a dev board, perhaps localhost, run it in developer mode.
1a) install / create a replica of your site, and the stats you need to acces.
------------
2) Create a new product in vb product section.
3) Create a new plugin, and work from the plugin either with str_replace and
find a good spot to edit and make the changes..
---------------------
TIP's :
-----------
- There are no dev guide for vb, only learn by doing.
- Download modifications and install them on your dev board to see how others handle the tasks.
- Donot edit the templates, cause they might be changed with future updates of VB.
thats why the use of the plugin system and replacement's.
- If you edit the templates, it will only work for that style unless you edit it master template
which only is accesable when running board in debug mode, not recommended on live board.
- Start your project, then when you hit the wall, people are more likely to solve
small indivual issues, rather than creating entire modifications.
Alternatly request a modification or hire a vb coder..
- Request modification (unpaid)
- Hire help (requests for paid services)
------------------------------
I can help you a little, this modification adds a "single" link in the postbit via the plugin system..
I made it pr request for some guy..
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=235619
With that atleast showing stuff in postbits should be somewhat simple to add.
Accesing the actuall database and rendering/registering the variables you
need to display, it needs to be done in the plugin itself, it takes php code.
Hope it helps, and welcome.
