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.

I did put it in there but didn't see the <td> for the user name

Hello, i very much like your work and appreciate you work. i use your script for a staff page instead of a roster page. I was wondering if there is way you can make it pull up more profile information. We are making a new console gaming site and it would be great if it could pull there psn ids and xbox gamer tags out of there profile aswell and maybe link in there contact info like messenger, yahoo. don't know if this would be a nightmare for you but you don't know if u don't ask right


you can see how i'm using it here:

Thanks for your reply, I will just do without the Multiple-Selection then

Well after some research I have learned that by default Multiple-Selection options are stored as binary in the db. I also found a post that explains how to get the data, just not sure if it can be implemented in such a manner to work with this mod.

If you have time to review that post and offer any suggestions that would be great. Thanks.

Great mod.

One issue I have:

Is there a way to set a secondary sort from within the settings or does the php file need modding? What ever you pick for sorting sorts by that, but then within those groups it sorts members Alphabetically.

I want to change it to sort by another Profile field.

For instance, on your site http://sacredhaven.org/forumsh/showroster.php you have the default as the Rank. For my clan we have 6-8 different divisions, one for each game we play, so I would like to sort by say Rank and then by the game before doing the alphabetical, or vice versa, by game then by rank then alphabetical.

example: Rank -> Game

-----------------------------------
-Rank Leader
-----------------------------------
--Name A----Game A--
--Name AB---Game A--
--Name B-----Game A--
--Name C-----Game A--
--Name A----Game B--
--Name AB---Game B--
--Name B-----Game B--
--Name C-----Game B--
--------------------------------------
-Rank Officer
-----------------------------------
--Name A----Game A--
--Name AB---Game A--
--Name B-----Game A--
--Name C-----Game A--
--Name A----Game B--
--Name AB---Game B--
--Name B-----Game B--
--Name C-----Game B--
--------------------------------------


example Game -> Rank

-----------------------------------
-Game A
-----------------------------------
--Name A----Leader--
--Name AB---Leader--
--Name B-----Leader--
--Name C-----Leader--
--Name A----Officer--
--Name AB---Officer--
--Name B-----Officer--
--Name C-----Officer--
--------------------------------------
-Game B
-----------------------------------
--Name A----Leader--
--Name AB---Leader--
--Name B-----Leader--
--Name C-----Leader--
--Name A----Officer--
--Name AB---Officer--
--Name B-----Officer--
--Name C-----Officer--
--------------------------------------


Thanks.

That will be so helpful, thank you! Have you tried including them as a string separated by comma's, etc?
