vBadvanced Homepage v1.1 Released! (01.27.04)

vBadvanced Homepage is an advanced homepage / portal that will allow you to include different options from your vBulletin message board on your site's homepage. It also allows you to easily create and manage new pages which are completely powered by vBulletin and vBadvanced. There are over 40 options where you can enable/disable the features, plus everything is template based so it is very easy to customize and change everything through your Admin CP.



Features:
  • Login box for members to log in to your site on the homepage.
  • Post News in a forum you specify and have it appear on your homepage.
  • Create new pages in which the content will replace the news section of your homepage.
  • Show the latest threads started in your forum on your homepage.
  • Show a poll and allow users to vote and see the results on your homepage.
  • Shows users avatar, new private messages, and buddy list for members who are logged in.
  • Shows a list of active users.
  • Shows statistics such as total members, threads, posts, top poster, newest member, and today's birthday's.
  • Shows a mini calendar with links to days with scheduled events, and a box with today's scheduled events.
  • Search box to allow users to quickly search your forums.
  • Set and change all options via the Admin CP.
  • Ability to easily switch on/off the polls, users avatar, buddy list, online users, search box, calendar, custom templates, news icons, news comments, smilies, set the maximum number of news posts, and many other options via the Admin CP.
  • Everything is completely template based so it is very easy to customize.
  • Install file that will make all database queries and templates for you in seconds.
  • Uninstalls in seconds.
  • Tested and stable with vBulletin 3.0 RC.
  • 100% validated XHTML 1.0 compliance
A nice feature of vBadvanced Homepage is that it is optimized and designed for large web sites. vBadvanced Homepage performs only 5 queries with all the options turned off. Some options will cause the script to perform extra queries, but even with all the options turned on it still performs only 17 queries at max.

Here is a list of each extra function that will cause extra queries:
  • News - 1 query
  • Latest Threads - 1 query
  • Poll - 1 query (2 if the user has voted)
  • User's Avatar - 1 query
  • Buddy List and/or Online Users - 1 query
  • Mini Calendar - 3 queries (none for the simple calendar)
  • Stats - 2 queries
  • New Posts - 1 query

Once again you did an excellent job Tigga.. I've installed this. It's missing a Top 10 Posters hack though (like your MyVBIndex used to have..)

I was toying with this but I just can't get it to work.. So far this is what I have..

in adv_index.php I replaced the custom2 section with:

Code:
if ($vboptions['showcustom2'])
{
	$getstats_posters = $DB_site->query("SELECT username, userid, posts FROM ".TABLE_PREFIX."user ORDER BY posts DESC LIMIT 10");
	while ($getstats_poster = $DB_site->fetch_array($getstats_posters))
		{ 
		eval('$getstats_posters .= "' . fetch_template('index_topposters') . '";');
		} 
	$getbgrow = getrowcolor();
	eval('$custom2 .= "' . fetch_template('index_custom2') . '";');
}
index_custom2 template was replaced with:

Code:
<table align="center" border="0" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" class="tborder" width="100%">
<tr>
<td class="tcat" width="100%"><span class="smallfont"><b>$vboptions[blockbullet]Top 10 Posters</b></span></td></tr>
<tr>
<td width="100%">
$getstats_posters
</td>
</tr>
</span>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
<br />
I added a new template called index_topposters:

Code:
<b><a href="forums/member.php?u=$getstats_poster[userid]">$getstats_poster[username]</a></b>
<b>($getstats_poster[posts])</b>
the outcome shows the following attached image...

Sooo close.. yet so far.. Only the top poster and this wierd "Resource id #15" in front of the user's name (user ID of the top poster is #16 if that's anything..)

Any help to get this working would be greatly appreciative..

OK for the news area on the vbadvanced is it posible to make just the news area or other select areas be included in a webpage as well. I am still new so I am not sure how to do some things yet.... sorry if its a stupid question.

I'm not sure I understand the question. Are you asking if it's possible to have nothing but the news as the home page? If so, I don't think it's possible without editing the index php file yourself..

Goto www.vbadvanced.com they seem to have a much newer version available along with mods and add-ons. I wish I'd known this before I installed this but it looks like the writer was too lazy to post it here even though 1.1 is about 5 months older than the newest version. it was my bad that I came here for all my hacking needs first I guess....
