What do you have to do ? It's very simple. Here are the instructions:


Open your vbindex.php from your webroot directory and do the following:

vbindex.php:

Find:

PHP Code:

// #############################################################################
// unset vB's default template vars, do this at the end so any standard error
// or redirect calls still have the vars for use in the templates.
unset($header, $footer, $navbar, $headinclude); 


Above add:

PHP Code:

// ############## PROCESS RANDOM PIC #######################################

$profilepic = 0;

       while ($profilepic == 0 )
    {
       srand ((double)microtime()*10000);
       $randval = rand(1,1000);

       $images = $DB_site->query("
        SELECT user.userid, user.username, customprofilepic.profilepicdata
        FROM ".TABLE_PREFIX."customprofilepic
        LEFT JOIN ".TABLE_PREFIX."user USING (userid)
        WHERE visible=1 and user.userid = $randval
       ");

        $rows = $DB_site->num_rows($images);

        if (!$rows)
        {
            // do nothing because i assume that you have at least 1 picture in your database
        }
        else
        {
            $image = $DB_site->fetch_array($images);
            $output_pic = "<A HREF=\"./forum/member.php?u=$randval\">$image[username]<BR><BR>";
            $profilepic = 1;
            $output_pic .= "<img src=\"./forum/image.php?u=$randval&type=pthumb\" border=\"0\" width=\"150\" 

height=\"150\"/></A>";
        }
    } 


Templates:

Open vbindex_customblock_3:

Find:

PHP Code:

Block $box Content 


Replace this with:

PHP Code:

$output_pic 


Now enable your custombox_3 in your vboptions in your ACP and all set all done. Have fun !!!


P.S.: If you are using another portal software then you could adopt this script for your use. You just have to find the correct template from your portal software and insert the variable for the output.

Cheers,

I tried this on vBadvanced and although it worked great the query count went through the roof on the homepage.
