Profile Enhancements - Customizable Roster

Customizable Roster

Introduction:

This Mod is ideal for a Guild/Clan roster, but it is also a great replacement for the memberlist. Customize it any way you like: add or remove columns with just a few easy edits. The installer includes permission control that allows you to set which groups appear on the roster and which ones can view it. See the optional.txt file included in the installation for additional changes that you can make at your discretion. The most popular option is the ability to add sorting; check it out!


Installation:

Step 0: If you are upgrading from a previous version, save a copy of your old showroster.php and rename your showroster templates (I recommend giving them an underscore prefix; Example: _SHOWROSTER).

Step 1: Download the attached showrosterXXX.zip file.

Step 2: Upload the files to their correct directories.

Upload the showroster.php to the /forum/ directory.
Upload the bitfield_showroster.xml to the /forum/includes/xml/ directory.
Upload the spacer.gif to the /forum/images directory if you plan to use avatars.

Step 3: Admincp > Plugin & Products > Manage Products > Add/Import Product

Import the product-showroster.xml file.

Step 4: Admincp > Languages & Phrases > Phrase Manager > Phrase Type: ShowRoster > showroster_title --> Edit

Change this to whatever you want as the title of your roster.

Step 5: Admincp > User Profile Fields > Add New/Update User Profile Field

Add all the Profile Fields you plan to use and keep track of their number(s) (i.e. field6, field7, etc.).

Step 6: Admincp > Styles & Templates > Expand > ShowRoster Templates > showroster_header

This template contains the headers for each of your columns. Add/Edit/Remove columns to your preference. Be sure to update both of the colspan variables to the number of columns you have.

Step 7: Admincp > Styles & Templates > Expand > ShowRoster Templates > showroster_userbits

This template gets the data from each of the fields you want to have viewed on your roster. Add/Edit/Remove columns and/or the nowrap="nowrap" to your preference. Be sure to update each of the field#'s to match the fields from Step 5.

Step 8: Admincp > Usergroups > Usergroup Manager > Edit Usergroup

• Set "Access - Should this usergroup have access to the Showroster page?" to Yes for whatever groups you want to have permissions to access the showroster page.
• Set "Viewable - Should this usergroup be viewable on the Showroster page?" to Yes for the groups you want to have appear on the showroster page.

(All instructions are included in the instructions.txt and optional.txt files)

Any plans on updating this for VB4?

Currently with VB4 I get this:

Warning: fetch_template() calls should be replaced by the vB_Template class in [path]/includes/functions.php on line 3895

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in showroster.php(229) : eval()'d code on line 1

I've been migrating my forum to VB4 for the last week. I'm saving the Roster mod for last because it is mostly just an addon. As soon as my site is fully functionable, I'll work on the Roster mod. Give me a few weeks though. Thanks.

Sorry to say, but that is correct. I spent a lot of time trying to find a way to do more, but failed.

IE: groupid 10,6,20,18,14,21

I am also trying to figure this out. Anyone have any luck?

There isn't an easy way to do it. But, there are alternatives. For instance, I renamed my usergroups to stuff like Guild Leader, Guild Officer, h-Class Leader, i-Enlistment Officer, j-Guardian, and Recruit. That is only the usergroup name though. I then worked out some code to look at the usergroup name for alphabetical order, but later in the code it uses the title of the usergroup instead of the name. Only the admins have to see the name.

P.S. I need to get back into the habit of only replying to those that clicked installed.

I too am patiently waiting for a VB4 upgrade in this product.

Funny you mention that. I am hoping to have it released this or next week. I have the code working, but I want to adjust a few more things.

[Sarcoth]

Upgrade for vB4.0 is posted here. Sorry, but I no longer support the older versions.

is it just me orwhat?

I can't for the life of me figure out how to be able to fill out the info that the thing wants to display. There is nothing in my usercp that shows where to fill out the character name, race etc.... anyone can help me?

Thank you in advance

I'm using this mod and am finding it very usefull. One thing though, I'm wondering if its possible to incorperate members Xbox Live Avatars into it, so when they register and in put their Gamertags, their Avatar will automatically show up on the roster when they are changed into the corresponding usergroup. Any ideas?

i know this isn't really supported but I have no idea what to do. the mod it self works fine. i have it sorted by groupid but when i have it sorted by groupid the group headers are the actual groupids (numbers) and not the group names/titles... i want it sorted by groups but still have the group names as headers... is that possible? anyone know how i can do that?
