vBExternal v1.6

Well, this doesn't modify any php, nor use a plugin, so i wasn't sure exactly where to stick it

Anyhow, this is a port of the vBExternal for vb 3.0.7, so look at this thread for more information: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...threadid=81943

Enjoy

Is there any way to have this pull code that displays random profiles or possibly random profile fields?

What I want to do is have it pull one profile field, and it be random for whatever user has it filled out.

require_once('./vBExternal.php');
?>


<?php
output_NewestMembers(5);
?>

<table cellpadding='0' cellspacing='0' border='0'>

</tr>
</table>

<?php
output_NewestMembers(5);
?>

For Newest Threads the default pulls from all forums if left blank. Is there a easy way to pull from all forums accept for select ones.
i.e. I want all Newest Threads from all forums accept for number 1 and 5

Any ideas on how to make this happen?

You need to put in your forums path in the

PHP Code:

<?php
chdir('./forum');
require_once('./vBExternal.php');
?>

section

create a blank php file and enter this into it

PHP Code:

<? print $PATH_TRANSLATED; ?>

name it path.php and upload it to the root of your server

now browse to your path.php file in your web broswer and you will see your servers path, this is what needs to be entered into that section eg:

PHP Code:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<?php
chdir('/<server path from path.php file goes here>/forum');
require_once('/<server path from path.php file goes here>/forum/vBExternal.php');
?>
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">

Some servers can be case sentive so make sure the file name on the server is in exactly the same lettercase as the code above. also your page needs to have the .php extension, not .html

another way is to create a blank php for it - save the file with any name eg: vbexternal_script.php

PHP Code:

<?php
chdir('/<server path from path.php file goes here>/forum');
require_once('/<server path from path.php file goes here>/forum/vBExternal.php');
?>

and then insert this into your webpage

PHP Code:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<? include 'vbexternal_script.php'; ?>
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
