Friends and/or Buddies on Profile · **Released**: 01-13-2006

WHAT's THIS

This product adds a public friends and/or buddy list in the profile.
What are friends? Friends means you are on each others buddylists. It is no seperate addition/addon. It's all based on vb's buddy system.
Need more info? Look at the attached screenshots, or the live demo(s).
Avatars/profilepics will not show up, if stored in filesystem!
Need some kind of informing the users, which have been added to a buddy list? Look at the AutoPM after addBuddy Plugin by Antivirus
The product adds 2 queries to the profile page

INSTALLATION

Install with product manager.

Set your preferences in the acp (vBulletin options)

Add

PHP Code:


			
$FNB_HTML

somewhere in your MEMBERINFO template. Whereever you'd like to show up the friends or buddies. If you're not sure what to do, search for

Code:

<if condition="$show['signature']">

in your MEMBERINFO template and add it before that line.

OPTIONAL (User selectable)

If you want to have this user-selectable you need to add a custom profile field. Create the new field as a radiobutton, give it a name and description of your choice, the options yes and no and use the following code instead of only $FNB_HTML:

HTML Code:

<if condition="$userinfo[fieldXX] == yes">$FNB_HTML</if>

(if user wishes to show up)
or

HTML Code:

<if condition="$userinfo[fieldXX] != no">$FNB_HTML</if>

(show by default, user can deactivate it)

Remember to replace XX with the number of the new profilefield!

The answer is in this post: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....4&postcount=54

Maybe there's another plugin out there who changes something in the output of that profile picture php file and you get the alternative image that way.

I have the defualt picphoto mod but it does not work for this hack. Currently on my site if a member does not upload a profile pic a defualt pic is displayed but this hack does not inherrit that mod

As I previously mentioned in this thread... If you look through this thread Code Red (I think) has posted his version of the MEMBERINFO template which shows a default image if the user doesn't have a photo in their profile.

It works because I've applied the same concept to my MEMBERINFO template and I have a default photo showing on my user profile pages.

Searched and search no code red member. I did see one guy list his memberinfo code but doesnt explain why. Man this is like pulling teeth trying to get support for this hack.

I did say "Code Red (I think)" - the 'I think' meant that I wasn't sure so be on the lookout. "I did see one guy list his memberinfo code" - that's the one. "Man this is like pulling teeth trying to get support for this hack" - it's actually a pretty straightfoward mod. You need to sit down with some time to spare and take it one step and a time, apply some logic and it'll work ok.

Hiya mate

I'm no coder either. I say apply some logic for a number of reasons... Quite often someone can't get something to run simply because they haven't read the instructions (and set a variable such as the base directory). One should always read the instructions at least twice, three times is recommended before starting out.

When you're trying to get something to work read the error message... don't just copy it into a thread and ask for help. Quite often the error message is staring you in the face. All too often people look at an error messgae, they don't read the error message.

Little things... look at a line of code... if there's opening quotes look to see if there's closing quotes, if there's a < is therea a > closing off the line? It's the little things... the attention to detail. Give it a go and you'll find that eventually you'll be able to climb up one rung of the ladder to becoming a coder. Coder's have attention to detail and apply logice - without it they aren't coders.

Could you post me the link to the mod, and I'll look if I can find out how to show a default profile pic if no profile pic is available. I'm just too lazy to search for it right now ^^
