I'm making a timeslip database for one of my car sites. On the page where a user can submit their own timeslip I would like the "driver" name field to automatically fill in with the persons screen name from the vbulletin forum. Is this possible? Can anyone shed some light on how I would go about this? In the displayed results I would also like to have the username linked to their profile as well if possible.

Will this file be in your vB directory? If so:

Make sure your php file contains this:

Code:

require('./global.php');

And then use this as the default input value in your form:

Code:

<a href="member.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&action=getinfo&userid=$userid">$bbuserinfo[username]</a>

99SIVTEC · #3 09-01-2003, 04:06 PM

Ok, I added that, but when I display the results it is just showing $bbuserinfo[username]. Now does it matter if i'm using a different database for this hack apart from my vbulletin db? Should I just go ahead and add the contents of this database to my vb? Maybe that is the problem

btw, sorry i'm pretty new to all of this

assassingod · #5 09-01-2003, 04:09 PM

The file has to be in PHP format (.PHP) also, if you arent using HTML in the file, you use

PHP Code:


			
echo("<a href=\"member.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&action=getinfo&userid=$userid\">$bbuserinfo[username]</a>");

If you are using HTML, use

PHP Code:


			
<?php

     echo("<a href=\"member.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&action=getinfo&userid=$userid\">$bbuserinfo[username]</a>");

?>

here are the contents of my timeslipadd.php which is the part that actually adds the timeslip info to the database. The part that i'm trying to get to display the username is "DRIVER"

PHP Code:


			
<?php

require('./global.php');

include ("mainfile.php"); 

$index = 1;

global $menu_id,$menu,$Pmenu,$activeusers;

$Pmenu="P_thememenu_homepage";

Apologies but I thought you were doing something else, so my code won't work.

99SIVTEC · #9 09-01-2003, 05:10 PM

Not a problem. That's why I just went ahead and put the code up so you guys know what i'm trying to do

99SIVTEC · #10 09-02-2003, 12:14 AM

Ok, so when I use

PHP Code:


			
<?php 

     echo("<a href=\"member.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&action=getinfo&userid=$userid\">$bbuserinfo[username]</a>"); 

?>

In my form as a test it properly displays my username, but the link to the profile is wrong. It takes me to :

http://www.mywebsite.com/vbulletin/m...etinfo&userid=

it leaves the userid off from what I can tell.

When I use

PHP Code:


			
<a href="member.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&action=getinfo&userid=$userid">$bbuserinfo[username]</a>

as the default value for my form it kind of works, but the results page doesn't display the username. It only displays:

$bbuserinfo[username]

Which then links to :

http://www.mywebsite.com/vbulletin/member.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&action=getinfo&userid=$userid

which isn't correct.

Any idea's? I'm trying everything I can think of. I plan to just use the echo command to display the username on the timeslipadd page, then a hidden form to actually insert into the database, or can I actually use an insert command to get the username into that field at the same time they submit the rest of teh data via the form?

Thanks for all the help guys. I think we are close
