vBindex · **Released**: 04-04-2002

Latest Version: 1.3

This hack is not very special for me. I just wanted to create a mainpage on which you can see.. (as a member) everything what u like to see. The idea of the script is similar to the vbHome of nakkid and also a little bit to the vBPortal. I tested all of them.. but i was looking for something better

. so i decided to write such a script myself...

Features:

Active threads & newest posts
News & Polls (read from a newsforum and a pollforum)
Quick CP Links on the index-site
Buddies on the index-site
Very easy to customize. Just edit the templates!
Available in english and german!

Summary: On this index-site you can see everything what you as a member would like to see

.

Demo-Sites:

http://partylife.ch [German Version]
http://www.kampfkunst-info.de.vu [German Version]
http://www.ukwinternet.co.uk/forum/home.php [English Version]

Screenshot 1: http://partylife.ch/misc/vbindex1.jpg // the original version and arrangement of the tables.
Screenshot 2: http://partylife.ch/misc/vbindex2.jpg // the nav on the right side.
Screenshot 3: http://partylife.ch/misc/vbindex3.jpg // or if u like 2 navs, left & right
Screenshot 4: http://partylife.ch/misc/vbindex4.jpg // another screen

You need to put the "copyright ?2000 - 2002, Jelsoft Enterprises Limited" back into the footer as you are violating the licence agreement.

i did that and it works .. but there is always a but ..
its images .. they are not showing since all ther refrence is for /images not vbb/images ...
I do not want to manually enter that since it i am using many styles. Any ideas on how to correct that and get the correct path for https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/images?

The solution to this really depends on how you have implimented this hack so far:

If you have added the templates to only one style set, then the one solutuion is to add a new replacement variable called {forumimages} for example and set that as forum/images and replace { images folder } (minius the space before each {}) in the templates to {forumimages}

The second option, change the path of the images to the full URL so http://www.site.com/forum/images instead of just /images

this was exact what I was looking for.
now is it possible to see which page user are on, on "who is online"?

Indeed this is posible, you need to edit the online.php for every page, I'll post the hack add-on with the changes later today for you -=dm=- I may also try and modify FireFly's admin cp locations addon so it works with this if I can.

HI NTLDR ..

You are awsome.
Your answer solved alot more than my question above.

Thanks alot NTLDR.

NTLDR · #**356** 06-16-2002, 07:20 PM

As requested by -=dm=- is the addon for my multi-paged vBindex addon. It allows you to have a location for different pages within vBindex based on the url.

Install Instructions:
------------------------
------------------------

Open online.php

Find:

PHP Code:


			
    case 'online':

      $userinfo[where] = "Viewing <a href='online.php?s=$session[sessionhash]'>Who's Online</a>";

      break;

And add after it:

PHP Code:


			
// Add Location Descriptions For vBindex

    case 'home':

          $userinfo[where] = "Viewing <a href='home.php?s=$session[sessionhash]'>Home Page</a>";

      break;

    case 'vbindex_PLACE1':

          $userinfo[where] = "Viewing <a href='home.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&page=PLACE1'>Description 1</a>";

      break;

    case 'vbindex_PLACE2':

          $userinfo[where] = "Viewing <a href='home.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&page=PLACE2'>Description 2</a>";

      break;

//end Location Descriptions For vbIndex

You need to change the following in the above PHP code:

PLACE1 and PLACE2 with the name of the template for the page that is shown in the url:

[code]http://forums.site.com/vbindex.php?s=&page=PLACE1[code]

Description 1 And 2: Replace with the description of the page.

Next still in online.php

Find:

[php] case 'online.php':
$userinfo[activity] = 'online';
break;[/php

And Add After It:

PHP Code:


			
//And Location Descriptions For vbIndex

  case 'home.php':

        if ($token1 == '') {

          $userinfo[activity] = 'home';

        } else if ($token1 == 'PLACE1') {

          $userinfo[activity] = 'vbindex_PLACE1';

        } else if ($token1 == 'PLACE2') {

          $userinfo[activity] = 'vbindex_PLACE2';

        }

    break;

//end Location Descriptions For vbIndex

Again, place PLACE1 and PLACE2 with exactly the same values as above.

Thats all that is all that is required to add the locations, the following is extra info on adding more than two extra vBindex pages to Who's Online.

Adding extra places:

in order to add more places in Who's Online you need to add a few extra lines to the above blocks of code:

In the first block you need to add:

PHP Code:


			
    case 'vbindex_PLACE3':

          $userinfo[where] = "Viewing <a href='home.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&page=PLACE3'>Description 3</a>";

      break;

Right Before:

PHP Code:


			
//end Location Descriptions For vbIndex

Changing PLACE3 and Description 3 as you did above.

In the second block you need to remove the last { (the one directly before break; and add the code:

PHP Code:


			
        } else if ($token1 == 'PLACE3') {

          $userinfo[activity] = 'vbindex_PLACE3';

        }

And change PLACE3 as you did above.

Having slight problem with vbindex...

Installed Hack per Instructions. Works great...

Problem I am having is now on my main forum page, my:

Most users ever Online area. The value changes as people logoff. The date also changes as well as the time...

Everything else working fine. I names the vbindex page index.php and also the Main index for the vbb Forum 2.2.6 is home.php...

Also, my counter in the vbindex page for Posts Today starts out at 74 and goes DOWN as Members make post...

Help...
