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.

Avatar is not displayed I think because of an incorrect path to the avatar. And no matter where it is stored or base or in the folder as a file

[Sarcoth]

Gotcha. It probably has something to do with avatar settings then. Since I have my settings a certain way, it is working for me. I need to figure out a way to get it to work for everyone though. Can you tell me all your avatar settings?

[Front Range 4x4]

If the avatars path relates to the profile rather than postbit that would probably explain my issue since I don't have the avatar visible in the profile.

[Sarcoth]

@Front Range - Ahha! I think I understand the problem now. I'll see what I can do about the avatars then. But, I'm also concerned about your joined date and last activity not working either.

Also with Fixed theme "Member Count" is pushed outside the table...

Also would like to see is the sort table spread out with the display tables...

[ViktorDA]

I also found a variable already in the code page:

PHP Code:

<table cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="1" bordercolor="#565545" width="100%" align="center"> 


variable $stylevar probably not processed.

I'll have to re-visit those Sarcoth, I'll edit the templates again and see if it's my error which it very well may be. Unregistered users can view it now if you'd like to see it.

[Front Range 4x4]

Joined date is now working even though 'on in ACP - I just removed just the <if> </if>

I'll have to do some more editing for the last activity but suspect that will work the same.

edit: Last Activity is also working, removed <if> statement as above

[Front Range 4x4]

As mentioned previously my modification to the Profile is probably the cause if the avatar not showing and not worth figuring out. I'm extremely pleased with it now that the Joined Date & Last Activity are displayed. Thank you for the great mod & support, I hope I didn't waste your time on what appears to have been my error.

:up:

[Sarcoth]

@ Front Range - NP. I'm curious about those IF statements. I do have some in there now because there are new options that you need to set in the ShowRoster Settings which turn the Joined Date/Last Activity on. Although, they are on by default.

@ Viktor - Thanks, I'll take care of those.

@ Cosmik - Can I see your roster so I can look at what you mean? I think I know, but I'd like to see what it is doing. You'll need to give unregistered users permissions to view.
