Sports Team Icons v2.3 for vbBux / vbPlaza

Sports Team Icons v2.3 for vbBux / vbPlaza

About This Addon:
This allows you to purchase icons of your favorite sports team and display them in your users postbit. Currently only MLB, NBA, NFL, NHL, NASCAR, Premier League, NCAA, MLS, & FIFA World Cup 2006 icons are available for purchase. This hack adds a new category for sports teams. In the new category are the different leagues that are currently available to purchase. By default I have enabled the "Can Change Always" portion so all of your "bandwagon" fans can come back and change their icon depending on who their favorite team is that week. To remove teams, they will need to go back into the store where they purchased the icon and select remove to remove the icon, it is up to you to decide if you want to allow a refund. To add extra icons to a certain sport (maybe some old school logos) just name the logo in the same manner as the current ones and upload to that leagues folder. It's that easy thanks to the great coding of CMX.

Pre-requisites:
***You must have vbBux / vbPlaza version 1.5.7 or higher installed in order for this to work!***

Installation & Upgrade Instructions:

1. Upload all the files in the Upload folder to your website.
2. Import the .xml file using the Plugin System located in your AdminCP.
3. Perform the required template changes below.

Required Template Changes:
Postbit & Postbit Legacy

Find:

<div>$post[icqicon] $post[aimicon] $post[msnicon] $post[yahooicon] $post[skypeicon]</div>

Below it add:

				<if condition="$show['sports_icons']"><div>$post[sportsicons]</div><br /></if>

You can change the category settings for this addon in AdminCP >> vbPlaza Options >> Manage Categories >> Sports Teams. You can change the item settings for this addon in AdminCP >> vbPlaza Options >> Manage Options >> Sports Team section, just pick the league you want to edit. Make sure you set your usergroup permissions for this. If you uninstall vbPlaza / vbBux for any reason you will need to re-install this addon as well.

v1.1 Changes:

1. Added NASCAR store item - Thanks LadyJo for the icons!
2. Changed the icon names - Make sure you delete the MLB, NBA, NFL, & NHL folders in the /images directory before uploading this. If you don't you will have every icon available in your store twice!
3. Updated the postbit/postbit legacy code - Make sure you update the code in your postbit/postbit legacy with the new code above.

v1.2 Changes:

1. Added Premier League store item - Thanks Gizmo5h1t3 for the help with this!
2. Changed the icon names (Again) - Make sure you delete the MLB, NBA, NFL, NHL, & NASCAR folders in the /images directory before uploading this. If you don't you will have every icon available in your store twice!
3. Added code to strip underscores and hyphens when displaying the team name in the store drop down and when hovering over the icon in the postbit. Now 3-Dale_Earnhardt.gif will show up like 3 - Dale Earnhardt. Follow the example of the names if you have added your own custom icons to certains sports. Only use the underscore (_) and hyphen (-) along with the letters and numbers. Do not use spaces.
4. Changed postbit code - Make sure you edit your postbit template with the new code. I did this so when future updates come out, you don't have to keep editing your postbits. If you don't like the sport you can simply disable it in vbPlaza Options >> Manage Options. Once there find the sport and go disable it.
5. Fixed problem with templates not being cached.
6. I cleaned up the code and a few other things that I can't think of right now!

v2.0 Changes:

1. Upgraded to work with vbplaza 1.5.0+
2. Added NCAA store item - Great work with the icons lordofgun!
3. Changed the postbit/postbit legacy code - I know I said no more template updates, but this one is kinda out of my control. This change should prevent any further updates to templates.

v2.1 Changes:

1. Added MLS store item - Thanks for the icons The Ottoman!

v2.2 Changes:

1. Added FIFA World Cup 2006 store item - Thanks for the icons soulface!

v2.3 Changes:

1. Updated to work with vbPlaza version 1.5.7+.

Is anybody else not getting the MLS team icons when you download this? I get everything else but those.

[fff]

I am not getting the "Sports Team" category listing. I've uploaded everything and that category still will not show up. Any ideas as to what I am doing wrong?

[Deimos]

I get the same problem as FFF, since upgrading to the latest EBux/Estore, the sports team category/items don't show in the Vbux category/item area.
Reinstalling/removing/installing has no effect
Reuploaded all the files, overwrote the existing ones, no change.

[fff]

I ended up just putting the sports icons in the gifts images folder. They all show up fine but they are not in a category. At least we can use them though.
