About Developer · **Released**: 11-23-2005

As with vBFOAF, I've just released this mod. (There are no modications needed really, so it's more of an add-on.)

Please note that your buddy list becomes public (to other registered users) with vBFriends, so you will have to notify people of the small change in policy.

Put the attached file in your vbulletin folder, and call with the u=1 parameter, e.g.

http://www.vbulletin.ie/forums/friends.php?u=1

You can surf your social network (similar to orkut), and view connections you have made to others and that others have made to you (similar to FOAF, or as illustrated with plink.org).

Screenshot attached.

The code contains some hardcoded HTML to avoid the use of templates (for now), but it uses standard vB3 CSS classes such as tcat, thead, smallfont, alt1 and alt2 - so should be fine with most styles.

Changelog:

PHP Code:


			
// 0.1 - 2004-06-23 - First version

// 0.2 - 2004-06-24 - Added missing trailing slash

// 0.3 - 2004-06-28 - Added missing TABLE_PREFIX to tables

// 0.4 - 2004-07-01 - Added functionality for enemies

// 1.0 - 2004-07-21 - No comment

// 1.1 - 2004-09-09 - Added mutual percentage, in and out counts, link and unlink options for own account

// 1.2 - 2005-11-24 - Updated for the vB 3.5 series

I have edited my postbit/postbit_legacy template, and linked it from there, e.g. under the reputation part, add in something like:

Code:

<a class="smallfont" href="friends.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$post[userid]">Friends</a>

See attachment, set max_show to 8 in the setup part. If you want to show a link to the friends page edit the line which shows

PHP Code:


			
if ($choicecounter >= $FNB_setup['max_show'] && $FNB_setup['max_show'] > 0) $FNB_HTML .= "<a class=\"smallfont\" href=\"".$vbulletin->options['bburl']."/member.php?u=".$userinfo['userid']."&amp;showall=1\">".$FNB_setup['show_all']."</a>";

currently it just hides all friends/buddies more than max_show and shows them on click and reload of profile page with &showall=1

That would need some sort of saving the preference in a database field. Maybe somewhen later.

Current xml: #102

Well, with the superb and comprehensive help from our hack author here, my issue has been resolved. And it had NOTHING to do with this hack.

I overlooked a simple html tag in my memberinfo template. I am such a moron.

Quite interestingly though, for some reason, this hack's plug in helped keep my memberinfo template "alive"; without it, the whole page really kind of failed, which mistakenly made me think it was this plug in which had caused the problem.

Thanks J! You're an awesome guy.

re-read post #85 carefully, especially the part about the MEMBERINFO template ^^

Thanks for the quick reply. Thanks for all the help and coding that you've provided in numerous spots on this board. It's greatly appreciated.

*BUMP* posted this a day or two ago but still the same problem and no fix. I also just removed old plugin and put new one from post 85.

The usernames are white so they appear invisible, I've tried manually changing the .xml file, the .php file, and my css settings. Anyone have this problem or know what I'm supposed to do?

Also if a user has no avatar I would like a 'no avatar' image, where would I stick that line of code in where?

Thanks in advance!!
Here's what I have so far: www.420boards.com/420kid

If the usernames are white, you have to change you css setting for the hyperlinks in your style

The usernames got the right color on several styles on our board.

Find clear.gif and replace with your noavatar image. If it is placed for example in your images dir replace by images/noavatar.gif

yayvb · #99 01-11-2006, 06:31 PM

Thanks that helped.... I'll try to do this again but the thing is you can see that all the other text on the page, links and all, work just fine. For some reason this text shows white and it seems like no matter what I do it continues to remain white.

see www.420boards.com/420kid

Thanks for the noavatar image answer too, that helps!!
Grrr, I can't seem to figure out what the problem is..

Do you happen to know EXACTLY which css style? What I mean is if I go to my style options and see all the CSS options, etc. I can choose background color, font color, link color, visited link color, hover link color, etc. There are a lot of these that I can modify and all of them seem fine. I change ones that are transparent to green and nothing so I change back.

I think I'm going crazy.

If you can't help further atleast thanks for your help to this point, this hack works great other than this.

Try replacing all 4 occurances of alt1 in the code with panelsurround.

yayvb · #**101** 01-11-2006, 06:52 PM

Thanks... There were only 3 occurrences, and I switched them all to panelsurround but everything's still white or blank.....

Do you think it's because I have a bad file or something? hehe let me try redownloading since you said 4 occurrences and there were only 3. I use textpad so I didn't just overlook it.
