VbBuddies RC 1

Hey,
This is basicly a port of the vbbuddies for vb 3.0.x you can find here:
Also all screenshots you can find here
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?p=816720

Altough I have added an approve wannebee option and maybe more will be added in the future.

For people who don't know vbbuddies for 3.0.x:
vbbuddies gives every user a page with his buddys, they can set whether it's public or not.
You can set for every usergroup if they can see the buddy page and you can also set what to show on the page and some other options.
Vbbuddies only show people if you have added them and they have added you. If there is only one link, the user shows up as a wannabee and the other one can see the wannabees and add them as buddys...


This is a beta, but I tested it on a 3.5.0 and 3.5.1 and it worked, but you never know.

thanks for update any idea what's making my username show up multiple times in other peoples buddy lists, and or how to fix it?

demo link: http://www.orbsydia.ca/forum/member.php?u=1

if you click any of the users in my buddy list, some times I show up more than onces as being online and offline in their lists. Not sure why it's doing this. Either that or I'm overlooking some of the code. (I used optional.txt) for vbbuddies code block.

hey, that's a known bug, I don't know why it's happening, but probably because a member is visiting multiple pages.
However, in the new version, I filter double users.

Hey i've double checked and pms are working if adding buddies from the add remove buddies link in usercp however a phrase is missing as i've checked the plugin. So what was this phrase supposed to be ?

$title = $vbphrase['autosystemmessage'];

EDIT pm system suggestions

I thought i'd just add one suggestion for when u add buddies via their profile

[noonespecial]

Any chance of an update soon? I really only want the bug about "approving a buddy" that gives a MYSQL error if the user doesn't have anyone on their list yet - fixed.

Anyway to add custom profile fields to the buddies_listbit template?

Add this below

	// ===========================================================================================
	// Additional information from database (Edit by: Lucas)
	// ===========================================================================================

PHP Code:

        $custom = $db->query_first("
            SELECT *
            FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "userfield
            WHERE userid = " . $inuser[userid] . "
        "); 


And then place $custom['fieldX'] in the buddies_listbit template where you want the custom field to display (replace the X with the field number)

There is probably a better way to do this, this is just the solution I came up with myself.

Hmz, srry to all folks it takes so long, I really, really didn't see this coming, but private life is taking loads of time right now.

Everytime I finish something, there's 2 new things coming in.

So, I won't give a eta right now, but it won't be that long anymore.
