Want to create your very own vBulletin powered page which includes the header, footer, and the user permissions system as well?

Well now you can

Want to know how it will look? Take a look at the attached screenshot below!

Now includes the Who's Online modification!
Also, instructions included on how to create your own pages that are integrated with current vBulletin files!

I'm going to give you a generic page but you can easily modify the contents of the page by changing the template

So here we go

Instructions:

Create a new file, whatever you want to call it (let's say test.php).
Open up test.php and add the following (replace TEST with whatever template you want to show):
PHP Code:
<?php

// ####################### SET PHP ENVIRONMENT ###########################
error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE);

// #################### DEFINE IMPORTANT CONSTANTS #######################
define('NO_REGISTER_GLOBALS', 1);
define('THIS_SCRIPT', 'test'); // change this depending on your filename

// ################### PRE-CACHE TEMPLATES AND DATA ######################
// get special phrase groups
$phrasegroups = array(

);

// get special data templates from the datastore
$specialtemplates = array(
    
);

// pre-cache templates used by all actions
$globaltemplates = array(
    'TEST',
);

// pre-cache templates used by specific actions
$actiontemplates = array(

);

// ######################### REQUIRE BACK-END ############################
require_once('./global.php');

// #######################################################################
// ######################## START MAIN SCRIPT ############################
// #######################################################################

$navbits = array();
$navbits[$parent] = 'Test Page';

$navbits = construct_navbits($navbits);
eval('$navbar = "' . fetch_template('navbar') . '";');
eval('print_output("' . fetch_template('TEST') . '");');

?>
Be sure to change 'TEST' to the actual template name, and change 'test' to the filename. Also, change 'Test Page' to whatever you want to show in the navbar, such as 'Viewing Member Profile' (just an example).

Now create the template, called TEST with the following content:
HTML Code:
$stylevar[htmldoctype]
<html dir="$stylevar[textdirection]" lang="$stylevar[languagecode]">
<head>
<title>$vboptions[bbtitle]</title>
$headinclude
</head>
<body>
$header

$navbar

<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center">
<tr>
    <td class="tcat">Title</td>
</tr>
<tr>
    <td class="alt1">Text</td>
</tr>
</table>

$footer
</body>
</html>
All done
Now check it out by going to test.php

Who's Online Modification

Now if you want to show who is browsing this new page of yours, just open up includes/functions_online.php and find:
PHP Code:
    case 'bugs.php':
        $userinfo['activity'] = 'bugs';
        break; 
Below, add:
PHP Code:
    case 'test.php':
        $userinfo['activity'] = 'test';
        break; 
(Be sure to change the values to your own!)

Then find:
PHP Code:
        case 'modcplogin':
            $userinfo['action'] = $vbphrase['moderator_control_panel_login'];
            break; 
Below add:
PHP Code:
        case 'test':
            $userinfo['action'] = 'Viewing Test Page';
            break; 
All done!

----------------------------------

Also if you want to create your own pages 'within' current vBulletin files, do the following:

Open the file you want, and then right before the final ?> in the source code, add the following:

PHP Code:
if ($_REQUEST['do'] == 'xxx')
{
    eval('print_output("' . fetch_template('TEMPLATE_XXX') . '");');
} 
Replace 'xxx' with whatever you want ?do= in the query string to be (for example, replace 'xxx' with 'showprofile' so then someone would type in example.php?do=showprofile to view this template.) Then of course, change TEMPLATE_XXX to your template name, it's that simple!

Have a question for you all???

I have added exactly what you have shown on the 1st page in order for this hack to work, but I'm running into a problem when this page is called up like this:

http://www.gspotracing.com/4x4rigs/s.../cat/516/page/

I added your hack to the showphoto.php page and it only works in the whos online area when the page is being visited by:

This link: http://www.gspotracing.com/4x4rigs/s...o.php?photo=61

And by a direct link to the page, but not by the 1st link I have given you above...

PLEASE HELP ME.. I REALLY NEED THIS INTEGRATED HACK...

Sorry I have this option so new members will register in order to view the images the forum has to offer. Non-the-less, I'm still having the same problem.. And this doesn't effect the coding problem I'm running into, does it???

I dont know what I'm doing wrong here, please can someone help me on this. I have the following file being called: "referals.php" with the .php scripting in it and one template being used as well called: "reflist"... Any help would be appreciated, no matter what I do, nothing is outputed from the database. I see the columns correctly, but no usernames or number of referrals, I know there are many members with referrals at this time also. Maybe it's just something messed up in my coding.. PLEASE HELP...

HTML Code:
$stylevar[htmldoctype]
<html dir="$stylevar[textdirection]" lang="$stylevar[languagecode]">
<head>
<title>$vboptions[bbtitle] - Top Referrers</title>
$headinclude
</head>
<body>
$header
$navbar

<table cellpadding="$stylevar[outerborderwidth]" cellspacing="0" border="0" class="tborder" width="$stylevar[tablewidth]" align="center"><tr><td>

I have found that you don't always get replies to any questions you ask here. I wish the support were better. But this is a hack so I guess we should expect that.

You say you have done exactly as shown in the first page of this post. But you added to the PHP file. The way I understand this hack is that is was created so you can use the template that you create to put all your information in that you want displayed.

I looked at your PHP file and you added to that. I doin think it was intended for this to be done. That is why I think no-one has replied to you on this. You have added the following code in you PHP file:

Code:
//start referral script//
$max=3; //This number decides how many users to display
$referrers = $DB_site->query("SELECT COUNT(*) AS referrals, user.username, user.userid FROM user AS users LEFT JOIN user ON (users.referrerid = user.userid)
                     WHERE users.referrerid <> 0
                     AND user.usergroupid=2
                     GROUP BY users.referrerid
                     ORDER BY referrals DESC
                     LIMIT $max");
while ($referrer=$DB_site->fetch_array($referrers)) {
	$referreds = $DB_site->query("SELECT username FROM user WHERE referrerid = '$referrer[userid]' AND user.usergroupid=2
GROUP BY username
ORDER BY username ASC");
	while ($referred = $DB_site->fetch_array($referreds)){
    $enc_username = urlencode($referred[username]);//get username for href link info below
		if ($referrerlist) {
			$referrerlist.=", <A HREF=member.php?action=getinfo&username=$enc_username>$referred[username]</A>";//make referred members clickable to user info.
		} else {
			$referrerlist ="<A HREF=member.php?action=getinfo&username=$enc_username>$referred[username]</A>"; //make referred members clickable to user info.
		}
}
//show actual number of verified/registered members script
$referredstest = $DB_site->query("SELECT COUNT(*) AS username FROM user WHERE referrerid = '$referrer[userid]' AND user.usergroupid=2
GROUP BY user.usergroupid
ORDER BY referrerid DESC");
	while ($referred11 = $DB_site->fetch_array($referredstest)){
		if ($referreractual) {
			$referreractual.=", $referred11[username] ";
		} else {
			$referreractual = "$referred11[username]";
		}
//end actual # script
	}
}

$vboptions[bburl] works better than $vboptions[homeurl] for those who don't have vB installed in the root directory.

I'm lost can someone try to fill me in? LOL

Ok all I need to do is open up notepad and copy the first set of text in their right? I don't need to add any other <body> tags or anything?

When I want to add stuff I just edit the template or do I edit the so called test file?

Thanks for helping a NewB

Save the first set of text as a .php file in Notepad. Upload to your server.

When you want to add stuff edit the template. You don't need to edit the PHP file again.
