vBadvanced.com is now open! There you will find more information regarding vBadvanced Homepage, FAQ's, hacks & modifications, and more.


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

my homepage displays only 2 columns. I know, its a question of style of even coding the index template. I just dont know what to do.

1- I wonder see the latest posts/threads in the center

2- Where is the link to the forums itself?

Thx

I am at the part in the install where it says:

Now open your adv_index.php file in this folder and find:
chdir('/home/yoursite/public_html/forum');

I opened up that file and found a similar phrase so I got that far. However, Im not sure what Im supposed to put there. At first glance I would want to put http://www.ultimatuner.com/forum/ because that is the address to my forum but it says not to put a URL in there. What should i put?

Also a second question, whats the difference between this and that CPMS(sp?) Portal management System?

Ok I uploaded it, but I never received an error. Also, I go into my Admin CP and I dont see any options to change vb advanced homepage. Also, in a few of my styles, it doesnt show up right. All the ones from www.vbstyles.com that I have that have flash headers, they dont work. Any idea why all of these things arent working??? *Note* My site is not functional at the moment so I need help quick!!

PS - My arcade doesnt work anymore. Whenever i go to play a game it just brings me to the main page. I have the ProArcade installed.

I can offer paid support for whoever can get all of this working.

Ok update. I installed vBulletin 3.0.5 update, and I uninstalled vBadvanced Homepage and now its all better except for one thing. Whenever I go to play a game it goes to my main page still. Any idea at all of why it would be doing this?

Did you, by any chance, rename your existing index.php to something else, and use the new index.php (the vbA one) in that directory?

If so, of course it is going to go to that page, because arcade.php redirects you to index.php?do=play or something.
