Mini Mods - Unknown Location

Description:

This modification will let you define a name for your external files replacing the Unknown Location message, usually in Who's Online & Members Profile pages.

Tested With:

• vBulletin 3.6.8
• vBulletin 3.7.0 Beta 4

Changes:

• [v1.0.2] fix a minor bug and support for multiple queries.
• [v1.0.1] added a 3rd optional parameter to identify the page with a query string.
• [v1.0.0] first release.

Installation & Upgrade Instructions:

Upload the product & configure the settings for the product Unknown Location.

Notes:

The location of your files are relative to you web root.
With multiple queries, using the standalone file simultaneously, you must ensure that the standalone file comes first:

/file.php:My File
/file.php?do=hello:My Hello:do=hello
/file.php?do=hello&do=goodbye:My Goodbye:do=goodbye

The change is made in the "online_location_unknown" hook. If your page doesn't call this hook, nothing will be changed. To know wich hooks are called, run your board with debug mode on.

How to Use:

File Name:Page Name:Optional Parameter for Query String

/portal.php:Portal
/forum/misc.php:Misc Page
/forum/misc.php?do=hello:Hello:do=hello (using 3rd parameter for misc.php?do=hello)
/forum/misc.php?do=thanks&do=something:Thanks:do=thanks (using 3rd parameter for misc.php?do=thanks)

Please Mark as Installed!

/index.php?page=Franklin -> this is what you see in user CP or WOL?

If so, "/index.php?page=Franklin:Franklin" or "/index.php?page=Franklin:Franklinage=Franklin" should work.

What is index.php file?

[DDad]

No, it tells me I'm "Viewing Index" and my Forum home name. I did try them both before but I tried them again in case it was me.
index.php is the name for cmps (vbadvanced)
I'm running 3.7

[DDad]

If I removed index.php from my url it will still take me to my address.

?page=Franklin
so I tried this
/?page=Franklin:Franklin
and this
/?page=Franklin:Franklin:page=Franklin
with and without the /

(i put it in the code to get rid of the smile)
and it still didn't work.

I will try on our live site and get back to you, unless you can suggest something

[nfn]

It's not possible to do that with this mod.

[DDad]

To bad for me
You have a good mod here!

Something strange here
I'm using vBa too and the mine gives me Unknown Location!
Are you sure that index.php is vBa?

[DDad]

That's the address that directs me to My cmps page.

both these take me to our cmps page
/index.php?page=Franklin
/?page=Franklin

[nfn]

If /index.php?page=Franklin shows Viewing Index, then it doesn't call the hook where the plugin is executed.

[DDad]

I have an index for cmps under public_html and I have a index under our forum.
The one showing on WOL is the index for our forum home not cmps
FORUM
url.com/forum/index.php?
OR
url.com/forum is our forum "veiwing index" **** forums
CMPS
We have a url.com and
url.com/index.php?page=Franklin
OR
url.com?page=Franklin is one of our cmps pages and states the same thing "veiwing index" **** forums

If theres something I have to chance in my files i will to make this work.

perhaps I'm doing something wrong, but all I get when I define locations in the ACP is "viewing" and that is it.
