LinkMe Hack

OR
How-To-Link-us in a nutshell

I have created a PHP file and one template which creates a new page in the look and feel of your domain. This file searches the directory ./images/banners/ and creates for each file which is found there an image and the appropriate source code in html. This source code can be copied via double click into the clipboard.

The aim of this mini-hack would be, to make it easier for your members to link your homepage/domain. In addition it will make your life easier because every graphic that you copy into /images/banners will automatically be translated into your LinkMe page. Once installed you just add more banners and graphics and you do not have to care any more about any HTML code. :devious:

Installation instructions are in the zip file. Install time estimated: 2 mins

I will only give support if you click on the install button on the right upper corner or you click on this INSTALL link.

But it is in german. :nervous:

Update:
Changes for functions_online.php implemented into the ZIP file and posted below.

hey to make your LinkMe file work on 3.5.x, delete it all and replace it with this:

PHP Code:

<?php

// ######################## SET PHP ENVIRONMENT ###########################
error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE);

// ##################### DEFINE IMPORTANT CONSTANTS #######################
// change the line below to the actual filename without ".php" extention.
// the reason for using actual filename without extention as a value of this constant is to ensure uniqueness of the value throughout every PHP file of any given vBulletin installation.

define('THIS_SCRIPT', 'LinkMe'); 

// #################### PRE-CACHE TEMPLATES AND DATA ######################
// get special phrase groups
$phrasegroups = array();

// get special data templates from the datastore
$specialtemplates = array();

// pre-cache templates used by all actions
$globaltemplates = array(
        // change the lines below to the list of actual templates used in the script
        'LinkMe'
);

// pre-cache templates used by specific actions
$actiontemplates = array();

// ########################## REQUIRE BACK-END ############################
require_once('./global.php');

// #################### HARD CODE JAVASCRIPT PATHS ########################
$headinclude = str_replace('clientscript', $vbulletin->options['bburl'] . '/clientscript', $headinclude);

// ########################################################################

    $advertising = "";

    while ($file = readdir($handle)) {

          if ($file == "." || $file == ".." || $file == "index.htm" || $file == "CVS") {

        &lt;!-- ".$vbulletin->options['bburl']." Advertising End --&gt;
        </code></pre>
        </A>
        <BR>
        <BR>";
        
}

}
$navbits = construct_navbits($navbits);
eval('$navbar = "' . fetch_template('navbar') . '";');
eval('print_output("' . fetch_template('LinkMe') . '");');

?>

Save and reupload...success!

i use .htaccess to avoid image leeching, can this hack work in my host?
