Profile Commenting

[Ultimative]

Hey there,

I am currently developing a MySpace kind of system for my vBulletin using various hacks and modifications but also some of my own. I was searching all last night, looking for a Profile Commenting System. As on MySpace they allow others to comment their Profile's Homepage.

A lot of people have been request one from me, as they enjoy to have those fun little chats from profile to profile.

I think I did find one commenting system but I wasn't granted access to it.

Anyone know where to get one, or has one at hand? I'm running vBulletin 3.6.4 by the way. Incase that matters.

Thanks,
Greg.

I'm looking for the same thing. I assuming the commenting system you saw was deleted.

i was going to try and install the shoutbox & modify it for profile use. it seemed like I'd only have to add a profile userid to the db. when saving shouts, it would store the profiel userid and when listing shouts, limit it to the profile user ID. I'll let ya know how it works out

im also looking for this.

There already is a "note system" on the profiles, maybe this can be used ?

my shoutbox plan doesn't seem feasible. it does use the DB to store shouts but it also uses an html file. it looks like I'd need a different html file for each profile and that's not an option.

my next option is to look into making a profile comment forum and have 1 thread automatically be made for each profile. then it seems I'd be able to list the replies to that thread in the profile with a modified postbit & the quick reply box.

problem with that is it lacks alot of the features this mod should have to empower the person who's profile it is. they should be the mod of thier comments.

I found this commecial hack. it seems like it has everything I need. I don't mind buying it but so many times I install a hack and uninstall it moments later becasue I didn't like it. I just don't know how well it works. since it's not listed here on VB.org, I'm assuming there's some issue with it.

it has the profile commenting system. allows the user to mod thier profile comments. they can set it so only their buddies / friends can post comments. it lists their buddies on your profile, shows if they are online, and includes an invite buddy system.

anybody know anything about it? I have a really large board and don't want to install something that might crap things up. is this well done?

That hack has no issues at all. It is not listed at vb.org because vbulletin.org doesn't allow any commercial hack listings. I am using that hack for a long time and it is really a good system.

Just off the top of my head, you could probably hack this...

1. create a forum for the profile comments
2. hack the forumdisplay template to not include you profile comments forum (it probably can't be a hidden forum, as then the threads wouldn't be visible to your users)
3. use a hook to create a new thread in this forum whenever a new user registers (to make this retro active, you'd have to run an SQL query to create a new thread for each of your current users)
4. hack the profile display template to include a display of the user's thread below their profile. (depending on how you access the threads here, you might be able to skip #2 and use a hidden forum [don't check permissions when displaying/posting to these threads])

That's not really polished, but can probably be done without too many problems...

I used the usernotes - changed the templates - used an ajax include.

Strange. First time I visited the page, a duplicate of your header/navbar was there in place of the profile comments. A refresh cleared that up. How'd you accomplish the new Add/Remove friend system?

Ultimative, there is always vS Interactive Profiles. It does a lot of "MySpace-ish" things. It's a free hack now in the 3.6.x Add-Ons section.

Can you post HOW you did this? I tried to add the contents of the usernote template to the memberinfo template, but it didn't work.
