Friend in postbit

[felixthekat85]

is can show $block_data[friendbits] (template: memberinfo_block_friend) in postbit?

Amigo, why would you want that in the postbit? It kinda makes no sense. :/

[felixthekat85]

My idea is to show how many friends you have.($post[friendcount])
and below, 6 images at random avatars of his friends.
any ideas?

It's possible, but it would definitely slow down the load of threads. I wouldn't recommend that, but count of total friends is acceptable - and I assume you already know how to add it to the postbit. I'd personally stick with that.

Thank you friend.
consider your suggestion to not load the show threads.
Equal, if you know it, I would like it you share it. and I evaluated whether it is worthwhile or not.

Another question.
The condition of MemberInfo
<if condition="$prepared['isfriend'] OR $post['userid'] == $bbuserinfo['userid']">
content
</if>
is possible apply in Postbit??

I put this together by taking code from vb scripts. If you make a plugin using hook location postbit_display_complete you will have the information for up to 6 of the the posting user's friends:

PHP Code:

if (!function_exists('get_random_friends'))
{
    function get_random_friends($userid, $random = true, $max = 6)
    {
        global $vbulletin;
        static $cache_friends = array();
       
        if (!is_array($cache_friends[$userid]))
        {
            $cache_friends[$userid] = array();
            $res = $vbulletin->db->query_read_slave("SELECT relationid
                                    FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "userlist as userlist
                    WHERE userlist.userid = $userid 
                    AND userlist.type = 'buddy'
                    AND userlist.friend = 'yes'
            ");
            while ($user = $vbulletin->db->fetch_array($res))
                $cache_friends[$userid][$user['relationid']] = array();
        }
        $ret = array();            
        if (count($cache_friends[$userid]))
        {
            if ($random)
            {
                $ids = array_rand($cache_friends[$userid], min($max, count($cache_friends[$userid])));
                if (!is_array($ids))
                    $ids = array($ids);
            }
            else
                $ids = array_slice(array_keys($cache_friends[$userid]), 0, min($max, count($cache_friends[$userid])));

            $idlist = "0";
            foreach ($ids as $id)
            {
                if (count($cache_friends[$userid][$id]) == 0)
                    $idlist .= ", $id";
                $ret[$id] = &$cache_friends[$userid][$id];
            }
            if ($idlist !== "0")
            {
          $res = $vbulletin->db->query_read_slave("
        SELECT user.userid as userid, username, avatar.avatarpath, NOT ISNULL(customavatar.userid) AS hascustomavatar, customavatar.dateline AS avatardateline, 
                         customavatar.width AS avwidth, customavatar.height AS avheight, customavatar.height_thumb AS avheight_thumb, 
                         customavatar.width_thumb AS avwidth_thumb, customavatar.filedata_thumb 
                  FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "user AS user
                  LEFT JOIN " . TABLE_PREFIX . "avatar AS avatar ON (avatar.avatarid = user.avatarid) 
                  LEFT JOIN " . TABLE_PREFIX . "customavatar AS customavatar ON (customavatar.userid = user.userid) 
        WHERE user.userid IN ($idlist)
                ");
                while ($userinfo = $vbulletin->db->fetch_array($res))
                    $ret[$userinfo['userid']] = $userinfo; 
            }
        }
        return $ret;
    }
}

$friends = get_random_friends($post['userid']);
//echo "<pre>" . print_r($friends, true) . "</pre></br>"; 


You can uncomment the echo line to see what is available. I'll leave it to you to figure out how to display the avatars
Also, if you don't use the thumbnail images, it's probably a good idea to remove the "thumb" fields from the query to cut down on memory used.
I should probably add that I'm not a database expert, so this may not be the most efficient way to get the info you need.

Another question.

The condition of MemberInfo
<if condition="$prepared['isfriend'] OR $post['userid'] == $bbuserinfo['userid']">
content
</if>
is possible apply in Postbit??

No, $prepared is not available in postbit.
