Signature Image System

Signature Image System v1.0

Firstly if you use profile pictures on your forum, this hack isn't for you. Basicly this hack uses the user profile picture option in vB3 to upload an image for users to use in there signature on your site only.

This has been tested on vB3 Gamma, but should work on the RC's too.

Upload signature.php to your forums directory and make the following changes:

in includes/functions_showthread.php find:

PHP Code:

$post['signature'] = parse_bbcode($post['signature'], 'nonforum', $vboptions['allowsmilies']); 


Add after:

PHP Code:

                // EDIT ########################################################################
                // replace sig img code
                if ($vboptions['profilepicenabled'] AND ($checkperms['genericpermissions'] & CANPROFILEPIC)) {
                    $post['signature'] = preg_replace('/\[signatureimage\]/i', fetch_signature_url($post['userid']), $post['signature']);
                } 


In profile.php find:

PHP Code:

$previewmessage = parse_bbcode2($signature, $vboptions['allowhtml'], $vboptions['allowbbimagecode'], $vboptions['allowsmilies'], $vboptions['allowbbcode']); 


Add after:

PHP Code:

        // EDIT ########################################################################
        // do sig image
        if ($vboptions['profilepicenabled'] AND ($permissions['genericpermissions'] & CANPROFILEPIC)) {
            $previewmessage = preg_replace('/\[signatureimage\]/i', fetch_signature_url($bbuserinfo['userid']), $previewmessage);
        } 


In member.php find:

PHP Code:

$userinfo['signature'] = parse_bbcode($userinfo['signature'], 0, 0); 


Add after:

PHP Code:

$previewmessage = preg_replace('/\[signatureimage\]/i', fetch_signature_url($userinfo['userid']), $previewmessage); 


In includes/functions.php add the end somewhere above the comment (note the comment varies for everyone:

PHP Code:

/*======================================================================*\
|| ####################################################################
|| # Downloaded: 03:57, Fri Dec 5th 2003
|| # CVS: $RCSfile: functions.php,v $ - $Revision: 1.901 $
|| ####################################################################
\*======================================================================*/
?> 


Add:

PHP Code:

function fetch_signature_url($userid) {

                global $_SERVER;

    return '<img src="signature.php?userid='.$userid.'&amp;sig='.(TIMENOW + 30).'&amp;req='.md5('http://'.$_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'].$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']).'" border="0" />';
} 


In the MEMBERINFO template find:

<if condition="$show['profilepic']">

Replace with:

<if condition="$show['profilepic'] AND $never_show_this">

Now you will need to visit the edit profile picture page in the User CP (profile.php?do=editprofilepic) and edit the phrases in the phrase manager to suit your needs. Searching for the text is easy so I'm not going to list all the phrases.

Now users can use [signatureimage] in there signature where they want the uploaded image to appear. Note you'll need to edit the usergroups permissions for Profile Pictures in the Usergroup Manager, where you can specify image size and file size restrictions.

You can always just simply do this above the sig in the postbit template..

<img src="image.php?u=$userinfo[userid]&amp;type=profile&amp;dateline=$userinfo[profilepicdateline]" alt="<phrase 1="$userinfo[username]">$vbphrase[xs_picture]</phrase>" border="0" style="border:1px solid $stylevar[tborder_bgcolor]" /><br />
