Hey people, today I installed my first VBulletin forum and I've a few questions:

How can I show the Reputation in the user's profile in each post? I've tried to play a bit with seetings but I cant make it show up!
How can I get .GIF avatars working. I allow them in each usergroup but when I load them only a static image appears!
How can I generate pages in the navbar but using a forum mask? This means for example, unregistered users can't see X link in the navbar, but a Registered user can, or a higher access ranked member.

Thanks and sorry for the trouble ^^

1. I think that's a mod. I don't use reputation, but I know it doesn't show on vb.com where they use the default vb software.

2. Make sure you allow animated gifs. Usregroup Manager > select Usergroup to Edit > Can Upload Animated Avatar > Yes

3. Use conditionals around the link.
To only show to registered users:

HTML Code:

<if condition="$show['member']">
link
</if>

HTML Code:

<if condition="is_member_of($bbuserinfo,5,6,13)">
link only for those in usergroups 5,6,and 13
</if>

Reputation is set by each user in the default vB installation as to whether it shows in the postbit or not.

I'd go find the settings, but I'm having a server issue with disk space at the moment. **banging head on desk**

Lynne, thanks. Then how do I generate the .php page with the same template and stuff?

About reputation, I allowed it in every damn seeting and its not appearing.

.gifs are allowed in forum options and usergroup options, but they are still not working

Lynne · #5 05-10-2009, 03:32 PM

Generate a php page for what? I don't understand that question.

As for the gifs - do you have any modifications installed? Try disabling your modifications/plugins and see if you still have this problem.
Note: To temporarily disable the plugin system, edit config.php and add this line right under <?php

PHP Code:


			
define('DISABLE_HOOKS', true);

I was trying to say how could I create an empty page with the same vBulletin skin and navbar... all that stuff.

About Avatars, its not a product I checked it. It's probably this:

Image Settings
Image Processing Library
Choose the image processing library that vBulletin will use for processing thumbnails and avatars. GD is more widely available but ImageMagick is more robust, supporting more image types. ImageMagick must have a valid path chosen below.

None
GD
ImageMagick 6

I am using GD. Tried to use ImageMagick but it seems I have to install ImageMagick (I dont know how to). You think this is the issue?

Thanks for the help

It could be the image processing library. When you go to vboptions > Human Verification Manager, do you see images under the Image Verification Library options? It could be you need to ask your host to recompile php with freetype 2 support.

As for creating other pages that have the vbulletin format, check out this - [How-To] vBulletin API Basics: Creating Custom Pages & Misc.

Baigo · #8 05-10-2009, 08:10 PM

No, no image appears on Image Verification. Freetype 2 is now installed too.

BTW Lynne, I really appreciate your help. No way to give you rep or something? xD

If no image appears next to GD, then it isn't installed correctly. To use imagemagick, you just need to have it installed (correctly) and then put in the correct path to the binaries (something you can get from your host).
