As this is a common request for integration purposes, I thought I should write up another HowTo
If you want to add a new user to the vBulletin database, you can use Class vB_Datamanager_User.
This Calss does make sure that everything is OK, it will also take care of the default registration options.
showimages = Show Images, incl. attached Images and [img] BBCode
If this is not set they will show up as links
coppauser = User is COPPA User
adminemail = Receive Admin eMails
showvcard = Allow vCard Download
dstauto = Automatically detect DST setting
dstonoff = DST turned On
showemail = Receive eMails from other Users
invisible = Be invisible
showreputation = Show Reputation
receivepm = PM turned on
emailonpm = eMail notification for new PMs
Value must be 0 or 1 (false or true), depending if you want to set the option or not.
If the Options are not set, the Default Registration Options/Board Default Options will be used.
Important Notice
It is assumed that you are using this code from 'within' vBulletin, eg with the vBulletin backend loaded.
If this is not the case, you must include smth. like the following code in global context:
I finally got a working script to add a user to vB offline. I maintain a separate Membership System. When a user registers in this separate system, an account is automatically created for them in vB.
When they register (again, this is in my own Member System -- on a different domain), I collect those variables that I need specifically (and minimally) to create an account in vB.
I then cURL those variables to a custom script (called bb_add_user.php) which resides in the root folder of the forum. The results of bb_add_user.php are printed, which are then collected in the result of the cURL. If there are errors, the Membership System takes appropriate action. If successul, then I grab the vbuserid from the cURL result and go about my business.
Although I am still proving this system on a development server, my goal will be to change all of the 'register.php' links on vBulletin and point them to the register script on my Membership System.
Here is the bb_add_user.php code.
Code:
<?php
# Add a user to vBulletin (offline)
function qpc_post($varname)
{
return trim(stripslashes((get_magic_quotes_gpc()) ? $_POST[$varname] : addslashes($_POST[$varname])));
}
define('THIS_SCRIPT', 'bb_add_user.php');
require_once('./global.php');
require_once('./includes/class_dm.php');
require_once('./includes/class_dm_user.php');
$userdm = new vB_DataManager_User($vbulletin, ERRTYPE_ARRAY);
$userdm->set('username', qpc_post('username'));
$userdm->set('email', qpc_post('email'));
$userdm->set('password', qpc_post('password'));
$userdm->set('usergroupid', 2);
$userdm->set('ipaddress', qpc_post('ipaddress'));
$userdm->set('referrerid', qpc_post('referrername'));
$userdm->set('timezoneoffset', qpc_post('timezoneoffset'));
$userdm->set_bitfield('options', 'adminemail', intval(qpc_post('adminemail')));
$userdm->set_bitfield('options', 'showemail', intval(qpc_post('showemail')));
$dst_setting = intval(qpc_post('dst'));
switch ($dst_setting)
{
case 0:
case 1:
$userdm->set_bitfield('options', 'dstonoff', $dst_setting);
break;
case 2:
$userdm->set_bitfield('options', 'dstauto', 1);
break;
}
#If there are errors (eMail not set, eMail banned, Username taken, etc.) you can check for errors using
if (count($userdm->errors)) {
for($i=0; $i<count($userdm->errors); $i++) {
print "ERROR{$i}:{$userdm->errors[$i]}\n";
}
} else {
# If everything is OK
$newuserid = $userdm->save();
print "vbuserid:$newuserid\n";
}
?>
OMFG THANK YOU!!!!!!! I didn't require your entire bb_add_user.php, but just the three require_once calls. If the original creator of this thread had just included these three simple lines it would have saved me hours of banging my head against a brick wall. You are the man!!!
