vBadvanced MMO Recruitment Modules Supporting :
Age of Conan, Everquest, Everquest2, Lord of the Rings Online, Vanguard and World of Warcraft, Star Wars Galaxy, Matrix Online, Final Fantasy Online

You should remove the current product and import the new file (not overwrite) for best results.

Some installs require the update template to have $PHP_SELF, some it breaks on. If you get a double URL when updating then remove $PHP_SELF/ from adv_portal_(game)_recruit_updater

Added Age Of Conan Support.

Removed the requirement for numbers in the update fields for some games (LOTR and AOC). I will remove the rest shortly, its a lot of template edits and im out of time for this weekend. (you can put html in the boxes now font colors etc)

Also added beta multigame support.

For this to work you choose the game you want per VBA page as the module so instead of init_recruit.php it would be eq_recruit.php, lotr_recruit.php.

You then need to go to the admin CP and switch to each game you want to use and populate the initial data for it.

The update form works much the same. Put it on a page as per directions below, use the admincp option to switch between games you want to update.

I will be working on multi support more. This is just a beta.

If you changed any of your templates you will need to revert them after the product import!

This is a VBAdvanced add on for the portal home page.. It will display a list of classes you are recruiting for your selected game, it also provides (a now templated) form to update the status, permissions for the form are controlled via group id's (primary group id) in the admin panel.

The zip file has a complete set of instructions for installing and removing the mod.

PLEASE CLICK INSTALL FOR SUPPORT (unless you like cannot install it and need that kind of support)..

Installing the product:

Download recruit.zip from the link provided below.Copy the contents of the upload folder to your forum root, take care not to overwrite directories, but to copy files into them.
Import mmoRecruit.xml from the Product Manager Interface.
Open the settings menu, select your game and submit the form. Once the game is selected choose the last option to import the initial database.

Create the Display vBa CMPS Module:

Add a new module from your vBa CMPS menu, select PHP file as the module type.
Set Module Title to Recruitment or Recruiting or whatever you would like the heading to say.
Select init_recruit.php as the file to include.
Leave Initialize BB Code Parser, Initialize Forum Permissions, Initialize Moderator Cache, Initialize Ignored Users and Clean File Output to no
Chose Use Module Wrapper Template: Yes (this is important, you will break the page with out it)!!
You can set a link for the heading of the module, to point to your recruiting post by filling in Module Link.
Make sure all usergroups are selected and save the form.
You can now add this as a module to any vBa CMPS page.
You will now see the display box on the page you place it on, with each class set to 1. If you do not, go back and check the instructions.

Create the Update vBa CMPS Module:

Add a new module from your vBa CMPS menu, select PHP file as the module type.
Set Module Title to mmoUpdateRecruit.
Select update_recruitment.php as the file to include.
Leave Initialize BB Code Parser, Initialize Forum Permissions, Initialize Moderator Cache, Initialize Ignored Users and Clean File Output to no
Chose Use Module Wrapper Template: Yes (this is important, you will break the page with out it)!!
Set Collapse by default to your preference..
You can now add this as a module to any vBa CMPS page.

Optional (Add AJAX Support to the updater form):

Inside the header OR headerinclude template (where ever your <head> </head> tags exist)

Put: <script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.mydomain.com/forum/clientscript/mmoRecruit.js"></script>

The AJAX has been tested on Firefox and IE7, if the requestor code fails the form will just submit normally.

Troubleshooting:

If the product import fails you can still do it by hand.
The templates are in forum_templates directory, the name of the file is the template name that needs to be used.

Creating the SQL Tables by hand.

Code:

CREATE TABLE game_rec_settings(
	game VARCHAR( 120 ) NOT NULL,
	enabled INT(2) NOT NULL,
	groups VARCHAR( 12 ) NOT NULL			
)ENGINE = MYISAM;

You may need to add the table prefix.

Code:

INSERT INTO game_rec_settings(game,enabled,groups)VALUES('','1','6,7,5');

Again you may need to include the table prefix

UPDATED:
**Beta MultiGame Support
**Added Age Of Conan Support
**Updated XML typos. pft..
**Added Matrix online, FFO and SWG
**In some cases the game would not be set when updating the table, this should not happen anymore.
**Now supports Lord of the Rings Online.
**Update form can now be set to collapse by default and it will actually stay that way!
**Added (optional)AJAX POST support to the update form.
**Fixed bad XML in product file.
**All modules now use vBa CMPS Shell Module Templates
**Added Everquest Live

Would take some work, the major coder is out hiking the Appalachian Trail and I'm on my fourth child in four years, so I can take a look at the mod files but between WoW raiding, pregnancy, full-time Mom and doing Site Admin work, it would most likely take some time. I'm STILL trying to wrap up the WoW Progression Mod for everyone as well, been wanting to get that out for awhile and things keep getting in the way. (Looks at stomach and longs to see her feet again...)

I'll do my best, no promises though. <3

The mod was created with a number in mind, instead of text, so that if you put in zero the class no longer shows (smaller space taken up for games like Everquest and Everquest 2, where showing all of the classes takes up a VERY huge space in a side column... since the module was originally created for an EQ2 gaming site.)

The edit the other poster created will work by essentially bypassing that function for games like WoW, where there are minimal classes. Kudos to him for posting that, and thank you, I missed some of the posts in this thread, I apologize, or I'd have posted much sooner.

When I try to update the recruiting status the URL that is points to is not working - it is doubling up the link.

Code:

http://www.mysite.com/http://www.mysite.com/index.php?do=recruit_update

My index.php is in the root of my site and vB is in a folder called vb. If that makes a difference.

Why is it adding the extra link to it? I am cornfused - and I will say a noob to vBulletin as I just installed it last night. Moving from phpBB3 based portal to vB - and really looking forward to it.

Mother_Dee · #**135** 04-22-2008, 07:15 PM

Open up your updater template and hard code the url to your site, see if that fixes it.

I have only been running vBulltin for 2 days - so excuse the noob in me - but how do I do this?

I used the code provided here to update the mod to include AOC Age of Conan, loaded ok or so I thought....I get this error when I try to load the age of conan to games selection

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_FOREACH, expecting ')' in /home3/bladesw/public_html/Forums/admincp/ap_recruit_functions.php on line 288

I can't find the error.. I am probably overlooking something but can anyone point me in the right direction... thanks

bonewizard · #**138** 04-29-2008, 08:03 PM

I've also been trying to mod this for AoC with no luck and I tried to contact the author with no response so I gave up if you get it going please post it here and share LOL

craigwest13 · #**139** 04-29-2008, 10:19 PM

fixed the one error got the settings completed now I can't create the module using the directions given here...I will try some of the fixes put in the thread and if I can get it to work I will post the update to include AOC...

Upgraded today to 3.7.0 and this is no longer working.

Any chance of a fix?

Here is the error:

Your submission could not be processed because a security token was missing or mismatched.

If this occurred unexpectedly, please inform the administrator and describe the action you performed before you received this error.

quarum · #**141** 04-30-2008, 11:53 AM

I got this working again.

Here is what I did.

Edit wow_form

Find:

Code:

<form name="vbform" action="newthread.php" method="post"<if condition="!is_browser('webtv')"> onsubmit="return vB_Editor['$editorid'].prepare_submit(0, $vboptions[postminchars])"</if>>

After it add:

Code:

<input type="hidden" name="securitytoken" value="$bbuserinfo[securitytoken]" />

And it is working fine for me now.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
