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!

Before installing the mod what did you see?
How are you setting the file name: "/file.php:My File"?

I want to show the url "http://www.mydomain.de/forum/vbcms.php?area=vbcmsarea_content&name=mircchat&con tentid=10" as "Chat". The setting "/forum/vbcms.php?area=vbcmsarea_content&name=mircchat&con tentid=10:Chat" gives nothing. I use vBCMS and in wol it show still "Ist im Bereich Content". Any Ideas ?

I like this mod, but I have an issue. I use a external link mod. Which takes a link and ads a frame to it. It will take links and encode them link this:
http://forum.myforums.com/ext.php?re...linkinpost.com

So I was wondering if it was possible to rename this to "External Link", but when someone clicked it, it would display the link the other person is viewing. Is it possible? Right now when you click External Link it just takes you to "http://forum.myforums.com/ext.php". So is there a way to add a variable to it?


Also: My profiles are at:
http://forum.myforums.com/username

How can I rig that up with this also?

Awsome mod

Had installed vbadvanced and renamed cmpm file to index and forum index to forum.php so when users viewing forum index page, who's online was showing Unknown Locaion.

added /forum.php:Forum Index into hack and works perfect now.


Well done that man.
