vBFriends - View your social network and surf to others in vBulletin 3

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.

are there any plans to update this hack in any way shape or form ?

[sabret00the]

something i was both wondering and hoping, especially in regards to caching the queries via a function, i like this hack and i have something similar planned but i honestly think that it would just seem more of an add-on.

the features i was looking for was;
adding a friend requires their acceptance
and then you go click ona link to display all the friends instead of the admin set amount.

ofcourse that would make obselete the "is linked too" and "is linked from" columns and queries

Oh I am sorry see the is linked to and from? Its fatter than the others. It only happens when there isnt anyone mutually linked.

When there are avatars uptop it works or I should say looks perfect. I also would like it so it doesnt link to other peoples buddies profiles. just shows who I am linked to and who linked to me. and who reciprocated. Thats it. I would rather if you click on a name in the list it just goes to thier profile page.


If you can show me how to do that that would be awsome!

Oh you hucked it up. I would like to make a donation for that. (it wont be big) but I mean that is exactly what I wanted. for saber and Cloud-Warrior.

The only thing I ask is what ever you did to fix the tables can you do it as well when there isnt anyone listed? If there are no buddys at all the tables go fat as well. That is about it!!!

Thank you very much. please both users PM me a paypal to send to.

[sabret00the]

ya know... like if you have people on the link to side (far right) it says link next to thier name.

if I hit it now. they will be added to my ingore list not the add buddy list. it has to be something small. they are going to the oposite thing. Same thing if I try to unlink.

something small you changed in the code.

here is a new pic of fat tables with out any data.
