vb stats (registered members, online, etc...) on external non vb page

[virtualraceday]

I searched the forum for this but had no luck... I now it's possible... someone made this already ??

[idwf]

i need this also please.

I have to say that I was a bit suprised and disappointed that this was not included in vBulletin. When I found out that there was no extension for this - I was shocked.

I'm also cheering for someone with coding knowledge to correct this mistake - and I'll promise to give my vote when it's nominated to as an extension of a month!

What statistics are you missing?

What I'm looking for is to do something like in *** Link Removed since it try to install software ***. If you'll have a look at the right side of the page you'll see forum statistics. That's what I want to add to the frontpage of my website.

Most stats are available either by querying the session table, or in the datastore as a serialised array.

[hellekim]

But to be honest, I believe that most of the people who come around here are not able to create these queries by themselves (like me!) and therefore they are trying to find an plugin and / or extension. If I would know how to make a query or look for serialized array, I would have done that by now. This kind of thing is probably simple for someone with the knowledge, but not for me.

Then you're asking in the wrong forum - you should be asking in the requests forum.

I respect the fact that you may not know how to create such details, but you have to respect that people who have the ability to help may not have the time or the energy to type out a step-by-step response. If thats what you want, then you have to make sure you get that across, because unless you said that, how was I to know your skill level?

First of all those stats are standard available in vBulletin, just look at the bottom of your Forumhome.

If you want to show them on an external page, you could use one of the Portal solutions offered, or create custom code for your site (you could look at those portals for examples on how to do it).

Not sure, but there might even be a topic on this in our Tutorial section (well actually this is really basic integration stuff, so start with topics on how to use vB environment on your own pages), or maybe even a finished hack that could help you with this.

These stats are standard included with vB.

I guess you're right - I just found this thread through search and decided to continue this one rather than open a new one.

My intension was not to disrespect anyone with the skills - I understand that people don't have the time or energy or don't find this kind of project intresting. I now read my messages again and I guess you're right that I might have been a little "aggressive", but I throughly apologise to everyone!!! Sometimes writing in foreign language and writing in general makes me write things the wrong way.

I'll have a look at the Portal solutions - I hope they mean something else than anything CMS related :nervous:

Thanks for the other tips as well - I'll have a look with these keywords (another thing witch is hard for a foreigner...).

Yes - in the bottom of the forum. Once again - like Merk said - I haven't got my message across. In InvisionPB they have a file called SSH.php or something like that and when you go to that page you're able to customise the stats, create login forms, make listings of who is online etc. and click ok, and it will create you a php include file which is easy to integrate with little knowledge. That's what I was looking for.
