Heh, that was quick.

Here it is: Integrated vBulletin Buddy List, v1.0

Originally coded by Stallion, edited and cleaned up by me.

Download buddy.php here: http://www.enter.net/~rmsullivan/buddy.txt and stick it in your main vB directory.

Make a file (temp.php) in your main vB directory, and put this in it:

Code:

<?php
require("global.php");
$DB_site->query("ALTER TABLE user ADD buddylist TEXT not null");
echo "done";
?>

Run it (it should say done), then delete it.

Add this to your <head> tag in the forumhome template:

Code:

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
<!-- 
function popup (addy) {
  var popup = window.open("buddy.php","_new","height=460,location=no,menubar=no,resizable=no,scrollbars=auto,status=no,toolbar=no,width=310" );
}
// -->
</SCRIPT>

And add this to your loggedinusers template:

Code:

(<a href="javascript:popup()"><b>Launch Buddy List!</b></a>)

All other HTML code is contained within buddy.php

Oh, and I almost forgot to mention - set $pmintegrate to your liking.

I have a check there incase anyway. LOL

WOO-HOO
I'll probably try this tomorrow, time for bed already

Ed and I will be enhancing this as time goes on -- we do have some cool stuff in the works, so try it out and give us feedback on anything you think should be changed/added.

As for why we didn't use templates, I was rushed for time and templates aren't the easiest/most enjoyable thing to code in from a developer's standpoint, so they were left out.

Expect it in a future version though.

That's all for now,

( Actually, they're easy to do - just, as developers, we've learned to hate implementing them.

Go figure.)

Not in the fact you have to go browsing through HTML pages to make a minor interface tweak when you mess up an <a> tag or something

#6 08-28-2000, 05:05 AM

I didn't mean like that - I meant they're easy to implement. It's only a line, and it REALLY shortens your code.

But the fact that you have to either make changes to multiple files and rerun the install script, or browse through the templates makes it annoying as hell.

Since I see no database modifications, and looking at the script, "your buddies" are stored in a cookie. It is not going to be pretty when I move computers or, even worse, my cookie hating users try to use this.

"we don't do cookies"

I try and try to knock some sense in to them but are you going to change this to use the database soon - I can do it for myself but is that in the plan?

#8 08-28-2000, 05:53 AM

I guess it'd be easy enough to have as a server-side option. Add another field in the user database, and instead of using setcookie, just use INSERT.

We'll take that into consideration for the Early Fall Release ;-)

#9 08-28-2000, 07:17 AM

hm... nice hack

As for the database stuff, I might give it a shot

#10 08-28-2000, 07:41 AM

the's fast ... so right now it's based on the cookie on the member's pc ?

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
