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.

4. Then copy and paste the following:

if (THIS_SCRIPT == 'adv_index' || THIS_SCRIPT == 'showroster') 
{ 
$tabid = ''; 
}

5. Then make sure you change "Plugin is Active" to yes.
6. Save and reload.

I was hoping this would work on 4.2.0 PL3 but it didn't.

Any Update on this for VB 4.2.0 PL3?

Temp fix:

Go to Settings -> Navigation Manager
Click 'Add Tab'.

Product: Showroster Mod
Title: Whatever the name is for the tab
Target URL: showroster.php
Active: Yes

Worked for me

This may sound like a weird question but

I have a general gaming site and think this would be an awesome tool if...

Say I want to do MMO guilds as well as ARPG Clans.

Is there a way to set up 2 pages, one for clans, one for guilds, possibly a third for a teams page for FSP's like Call of Duty?

Any help on this?

Did anyone work this one out? I have this issue on profile fields and group names and cant get my head around it

I think I managed to get most of the behaviour I was looking for, couple of things that might be interesting for a future version. I've moved the sorting function to the column headers and included an onmouseover highlight for example, felt a bit more intuitive than a pulldown menu. And a selected column will also be highlighted with a (lighter) colour. I've made quite a few code changes and they're probably somewhat messy, but they're all working and if you want to see if there's anything useful in there I can mail you the files.

Hi, can someone explain how to do this? Also i need autogenerated column with row id. Is it possible to add?

I have not looked at the code in this mod in a long time. I'm impressed that it is still used.

Anyhow, I was contacted earlier this week and finalized a deal on a new roster mod last night. I started work on the lite version today. I will have a plus version with additional features as well.

If anyone has a valid request that can get support from at least two others, you can post them over at my website. I really don't follow this thread anymore though, so don't post suggestions here for the new mod.

Thank you.

This kind of slipped my mind... Sarcoth, if you want I can email you the modifications I made to get the above. We're likely to move away from vB soon, but maybe someone else can benefit from them.

@Barteh, I'm not sure how useful it would be to me since I am rebuilding the new mod without even looking at this [old] code. My coding style has changed over the years so I'd rather approach it from another angle. I do appreciate the offer nonetheless. Thank you.

I modified it a bit for my site. Sorry for the blurry pic. Not sure why it did that.

The album icon is click-able on my site and brings up a larger image in Lightbox.
