Updated Buddy List Code

<font size="3">Updated Buddy List Code</font>
Because we always don't need to "Add A New Buddy"
============================================

This hack will update the Buddy List coding in getinfo. The old code was displayed always as "Add Buddy". This new code will replace that with either "Currently On Buddy List" or "Add Buddy" depending on whether or not you've added that member to your buddy list.

Compatibility: This hack will work with vB 2.0.3 and higher. This hack will also work with many getinfo (Profile) modifications, so regardless of what you've done it should work.

Install Time: 1-2 Minutes

Download: Instructions are in attachment.

Excellent hack!

Of course, if you're going to do that for the buddy list, you might as well do it for the ignore list ;D

Here's how:

1. In member.php, after (added as part of afterlab's hack):

PHP Code:

  $buddy_list = "-$bbuserinfo[buddylist]";

    if (strpos($buddy_list, $userinfo[userid])) {
      eval("\$isbuddy = \"".gettemplate("getinfo_isbuddy")."\";");
    } else {
      eval("\$isbuddy = \"".gettemplate("getinfo_addbuddy")."\";");
    } 


add the following:

PHP Code:

  // ignore emblem hack
  $ignore_list = "-$bbuserinfo[ignorelist]";

    if (strpos($ignore_list, $userinfo[userid])) {
      eval("\$isignore = \"".gettemplate("getinfo_isignore")."\";");
    } else {
      eval("\$isignore = \"".gettemplate("getinfo_addignore")."\";");
    }
   // end ignore emblem hack 


2. Create two new templates:

Template 1: getinfo_isignore:

<font color="{ linkcolor }">$userinfo[username] is currently on your Ignore List
 [<a href="member2.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&action=removelist&userlist=ignore&userid=$userinfo[userid]">remove</a>]</font>

Template 2: getinfo_addignore:

<a href="member2.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&action=addlist&userlist=ignore&userid=$userinfo[userid]">
<font color="{ linkcolor }">Add $userinfo[username] to your Ignore List</font></a>

3. Edit the getinfo template:

Find the following:

<a href="member2.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&action=addlist&userlist=ignore&userid=$userinfo[userid]">
<font color="{ linkcolor }">Add $userinfo[username] to Your Ignore List</font></a>

Replace with:

$isignore

4. Save, upload, and you're done

Thanks for the hack, afterlab!

Edit: Oops. I forgot I had to add spaces in between the brackets in { linkcolor } (make sure to take those out if you should use this

In the above ignore list addition, be sure to change...

PHP Code:

<font color="#EEEEFF"> 


to...

PHP Code:

<font color="{ linkcolor }"> 


(minus the extra spaces) so that the links show up in the color you've selected for your forums.

Just a few cosmetic tweaks to make the links look a little better for the updated Buddy List code.

In the getinfo_addbuddy template, I put...

PHP Code:

<a href="member2.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&action=addlist&userlist=buddy&userid=$userinfo[userid]"><font color="{ linkcolor }">Add $userinfo[username] to your Buddy List</font></a> 


(without the extra spaces in the linkcolor replacement tag)

And in the getinfo_isbuddy template, a modification of LoveShack's isignore:

PHP Code:

<font color="{ linkcolor }">$userinfo[username] is currently on your Buddy List
 [<a href="member2.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&action=removelist&userlist=buddy&userid=$userinfo[userid]">remove</a>]</font> 


(again without the extra spaces in the linkcolor replacement tag)

And the two then line-up much better!

Thanks for a cool hack, afterlab!

Thanks Loveshack,

but there is a bug :

if you put one user to ignore list and then add him to buddy list!
He is on both lists! Doesn't make sense, right?

Umm...

Seems like a serious bug...

I'll take a look, as I havent installed this...

[Xenon]

this isn't a bug in this hack, more a bug in vb in general

[Chris M]

Is it?

Oh...
