End-User Options - Ajax Check Username

Due to popular demand I decided to put some work into it to make it fully 3.6.1 compliant.

This one uses the phrase system so you can easily translate it without going through the Js-file.
This one uses the vBulletin Ajax Handler, no more custom and buggy solution for connection to the server.
This one uses vB-functions to create the XML file needed for the Ajax magic.

Generally said: This one is the old Add-on taken one step further.

I am a bit handicapped at the moment when it comes to typing but the Add-On is working fine on my forums and so I decided to release it.


Screenshots are attached, for a live demo visit this page: http://www.pagodentreff.de/diskussio...hp?do=register
(PLEASE don't register just for fun! )

What else do I need to say? Well.. make a backup before you start installing this Addon-On. I say it's safe but don't trust the German guy.

Have fun and click install.



Attention:
In order to get this Add-on working you must allow guest access to the file 'misc.php'. That file does the username check and it is important that guests can access that file.

I am confused about what this means, how can I give guest access to a Vb php file i.e, misc.php can someone who are using this modification can enlighten me please.

Now that is really weird, it was working when I posted that it was. Reuploaded the product and it started working again. (it's working right now)

Just clicking 'Register', gives this error:



var phrase_checkusernameok = 'This username is not yet taken. Feel free to use it!'; var phrase_checkusernametaken = 'This username is already taken. Please choose another one.';

Thought it was a java script but it turns out that you can use ajax as well for vbulletin

AJAX is an acronym for Asynchronous JavaScript and XML. So, really, it is JavaScript.

I got bored, so I modified the plugin to perform automatic template edits. I, personally, hate having to reapply template edits on upgrades/reverts/etc. so whenever possible I try to hardcode the template edits.

Just import and enable. Done!

* Note: This was modified using the Default style on a fresh 3.6.2 installation. That shouldn't matter, but still. :P
