Profile Enhancements - Customizable Roster

Customizable Roster

Introduction:

This Mod is ideal for a Guild/Clan roster, but it is also a great replacement for the memberlist. Customize it any way you like: add or remove columns with just a few easy edits. The installer includes permission control that allows you to set which groups appear on the roster and which ones can view it. The most popular option is the ability to control advanced sorting; check it out!

Installation:

Step 0: If you are upgrading from a previous version, save a copy of your old showroster.php and rename your showroster templates (I recommend giving them an underscore prefix; Example: _SHOWROSTER). When upgrading from version, make a copy of all your templates, then revert the templates back to their default, and then uninstall the older version. Also, make sure you delete the bitfield_showroster.xml file in the /includes/xml directory; this will cause database errors if not deleted.

Step 1: Download the showroster_vX.X.X.zip file and unzip it.

Step 2: Upload the files to their correct directories.

Upload the showroster.php to the /forum/ directory.
Delete the bitfield_showroster.xml in the /forum/includes/xml/ directory (if there).

Step 3: Admincp > Plugin & Products > Manage Products > Add/Import Product

Import the product-showroster_v4.x.x.xml file.

Step 4: Admincp > User Profile Fields > Add New/Update User Profile Field

Add all the Profile Fields you plan to use and keep track of their number(s) (i.e. field6, field7, etc.).

Step 5: Admincp > Settings > Options > ShowRoster Settings

Update the settings for your roster: usergroups allowed to view the roster, usergroups that are displayed on the roster, the title and field# for each of your columns on the roster, and any of the many other settings.

Step 6: Admincp > Styles & Templates > Expand > ShowRoster Templates > SHOWROSTER, showroster_header, and showroster_userbits

You only need to adjust these if you have custom adjustments to make. Otherwise, there is no longer a need to change these.

NOTE: See installation and upgrading instructions in the included corresponding txt files.

Thank You IR15H, I added the information worked out nicely!

I did however notice when I added the xbox and PS3 tags it was a bit too much probably be better to just use icons for those... You can use the smaller xbox icons from the links but if a user doesn't have a xbox gamer card it shows a white error message in the showroster block...

It still is a nice addon to the Showroster!

I have tried to add some extra field to this to show a list of played games using a multi check box bu this will not show on the roster, just a number

anyway to show a list of say 6 games a user playes so it shows on the roster ?

For the benefit of others who are thinking of using this for a non RPG site I'm attaching a screenshot of my roster. This is a great mod and with a bit of template editing is a great improvement for a member list.

I've had a few people contact me so here it is and I'm more than happy to offer help for those interested.

@ betts - Each box is assigned a number within the code. So, when the user checks the box, that is what is given. It is possible to do what you ask, but I it will only give back a single number no matter what. Out of curiosity, does it give you back a different number depending on what is checked or always the same thing, like 1? To be honest, I'm not sure of an easy way to get it to display what you check.

To everyone, school is really busy right now with this being the final month of the semester. I'll return to working on updates after May 10. Unless someone wants to write my economics term paper for me that is...oh well, it was worth a try.

Yes it gives back a different nuber if i select different games

What i am trying to do is have this show our full members only what games they play

so each person knows who plays what games

i can work arround it a different way with many profile field single box but i thought it may work with check box and show, nut seems not

I am having trouble lining up the tables correctly. Take a look:

P.S. I blacked out the names and ID's.

You should do column width's. Open the showrosterbits template and edit the TD area's: add colspan="20%" to each one and then adjust them to the proper sizes as you see fit. Just make sure they total 100%.

Did not work. And there is no "showrosterbits", there is a
"showroster_userbits" template. Is that what you are referring to?

Yep. Copy/paste your showroster_userbits here and I'll edit it for you. showrosterbits is the template call to that template in the php file. I sometimes forget to distinguish them.

BTW, I don't know why I said colspan last night, I meant width. Funny that I was thinking width but typed the other. My macroeconomics class is frying my brain.
