WHAT's THIS
This product adds a public friends and/or buddy list in the profile.
What are friends? Friends means you are on each others buddylists. It is no seperate addition/addon. It's all based on vb's buddy system.
Need more info? Look at the attached screenshots, or the live demo(s).
Avatars/profilepics will not show up, if stored in filesystem!
Need some kind of informing the users, which have been added to a buddy list? Look at the AutoPM after addBuddy Plugin by Antivirus
The product adds 2 queries to the profile page
INSTALLATION
Install with product manager.
Set your preferences in the acp (vBulletin options)
Add
PHP Code:
$FNB_HTML
somewhere in your MEMBERINFO template. Whereever you'd like to show up the friends or buddies. If you're not sure what to do, search for
Code:
<if condition="$show['signature']">
in your MEMBERINFO template and add it before that line.
OPTIONAL (User selectable)
If you want to have this user-selectable you need to add a custom profile field. Create the new field as a radiobutton, give it a name and description of your choice, the options yes and no and use the following code instead of only $FNB_HTML:
Thx to Cloud-Warrior for inspiration and idea. If you want a seperate friends page, too, get the vBFriends extension by Cloud-Warrior.
vwturbo (for the idea of gettin profilepics instead of avatars), gamebgs (limitting shown friends/buddies to a max number), D|ver (hiding the information who you got in your buddy list and whohas added you to his buddy list), yayvb (show a "no avatar" picture if no avatar is available), ThorstenA (see changelog version 1.0.2)

That would be HUGE! There are a lot of people looking for something like that. I'm not even sure where to begin on that though... I'm not very familiar with the buddy list and how it works in vBulletin. If anyone has any idea of where I could start looking, I'll play around with it, but I really have no idea where to even start!
I know this is a profile plugin but as this has been asked before with no answer I too am wondering if this would be possible to be displayed on the "Buddy / Ignore Lists" page or ..profile.php?do=editlist. Many people will go to that page to add or remove a buddy or put them on their ignore list and it would be cool to see this same pluggin show up on this page.
Great hack BTW. I didn't realize that the one standard in vB was so weak until a member asked me how he could send a private message to someone on his buddy list and there is no link.

You mean that the display of your "friends" should also be available in the usercp directly? I think this would be possible, but I don't have much speartime at the moment. I even got no time to update our board to 3.6 (I have to check lots of plugins/extensions). But as soon as I get it done, I'll port my things over to 3.6 and enhance em a bit
Sounds good to me. As it stands right now if you click on the profile of a member anyone can see who is on their buddy/friends list. I have made it so that only the member or admin can see that in their profile.
The Buddies/Ignore list is only viewable by the particular member and not the whole membership. So I thought it would be a logical place to put your hack right below that list instead of the profile of a member.
