vBadvanced.com is now open! There you will find more information regarding vBadvanced Homepage, FAQ's, hacks & modifications, and more.


vBadvanced Homepage v1.1 Released! (01.27.04)

vBadvanced Homepage is an advanced homepage / portal that will allow you to include different options from your vBulletin message board on your site's homepage. It also allows you to easily create and manage new pages which are completely powered by vBulletin and vBadvanced. There are over 40 options where you can enable/disable the features, plus everything is template based so it is very easy to customize and change everything through your Admin CP.



Features:
  • Login box for members to log in to your site on the homepage.
  • Post News in a forum you specify and have it appear on your homepage.
  • Create new pages in which the content will replace the news section of your homepage.
  • Show the latest threads started in your forum on your homepage.
  • Show a poll and allow users to vote and see the results on your homepage.
  • Shows users avatar, new private messages, and buddy list for members who are logged in.
  • Shows a list of active users.
  • Shows statistics such as total members, threads, posts, top poster, newest member, and today's birthday's.
  • Shows a mini calendar with links to days with scheduled events, and a box with today's scheduled events.
  • Search box to allow users to quickly search your forums.
  • Set and change all options via the Admin CP.
  • Ability to easily switch on/off the polls, users avatar, buddy list, online users, search box, calendar, custom templates, news icons, news comments, smilies, set the maximum number of news posts, and many other options via the Admin CP.
  • Everything is completely template based so it is very easy to customize.
  • Install file that will make all database queries and templates for you in seconds.
  • Uninstalls in seconds.
  • Tested and stable with vBulletin 3.0 RC.
  • 100% validated XHTML 1.0 compliance
A nice feature of vBadvanced Homepage is that it is optimized and designed for large web sites. vBadvanced Homepage performs only 5 queries with all the options turned off. Some options will cause the script to perform extra queries, but even with all the options turned on it still performs only 17 queries at max.

Here is a list of each extra function that will cause extra queries:
  • News - 1 query
  • Latest Threads - 1 query
  • Poll - 1 query (2 if the user has voted)
  • User's Avatar - 1 query
  • Buddy List and/or Online Users - 1 query
  • Mini Calendar - 3 queries (none for the simple calendar)
  • Stats - 2 queries
  • New Posts - 1 query

Having trouble getting Index Page to work. Here's the address:

http://forums.onlinesportsgames.com/...ums/index.php?

So, what should this look like:

// Enter the Full Path (NOT THE URL!) to your forums here with No Trailing Slash

chdir('/home/forums.onlinesportsgames.com/vbportals/forums/index.php');

Your chdir should be something like /home/eajunkie/public_html/onlinesportsgames/forums

your URL should not go in there. The best way to find out is to ask your web host provider to provide you with that info.

Well i've finally finished this mod and it appears to be working okay. Very impressed with it.

If anyone is bored, could you please check it out and just see if anything goes wrong! I'm paranoid it may do somewhere! www.burnleyweb.com

I have the mod 'Petz' and the mod 'Arcade' on my forum. However, when you click on this on the first page, it's missing the /forum/ bit so it wont work. I can't remember which file I need to edit, etc so any help would be appreciated. The other links work obviously.

Nice hack!

Now, when a guest is is viewing the portal, they can see posts from sections that guests or even members are not allowed to see..? Is this a bug?

Also, how do I have it so when a member is on the portal, it shows a link in the navbar for forums, and when they are @ the forums it shows a link for home?

What about the issue with a guest or member seeing forums their usergroups do not have permission to see? The permissions are set correctly in Forum Manager too.

Tigga, could you add a custom user editable box, so it would be something like a signature, every user could enter whatever he wants (without HTML or with?) and it would show up in the predefined place? For exampe some counters or links, or telephones, whatever - what do you think? A custom user filled block, maybe even (in the future) an address DB, because, for example, I've made a SMS sending system over the world and would love to have not only my Buddy names inserted in the TO: field, but other people names as well, not they're phone numbers.

i was running vba 1.0 and vb3rc2, I upgraded vb3rc- rc4 and upgraded vba1.0 to the latest.

now in my admin panel if i look at the vb options it shows this. Also on the main page for some reason the templates are not showing up correctly.

I reinstalled the templates but still no luck, have a look at what for example my Online users template look like in the home page as well.
