Friends and/or Buddies on Profile · **Released**: 12-16-2006

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!

TODO

Looking into avatar/profilepicture display/detection
Online status of friends/buddies
?SEO compatibility?

Got no SEO, so I can't test/fix it.

Doesn't recognize it.. Is it possible to be able to add users by memberid as well or possibly fixing this?

This needs some editing in the Script. But I think its possible to go with the memberid. I will write that request down and implement it, when we updated to the latest vbulletin version (we're waiting for 3.6.5).

Great Hack!

Is it possible to set that the admin is by default a friend of every new user?

Thank you!

I have 3.6.5. I have the mod installed but I don't see the avatars. My images are stored in my database. Here's my profile

It has been released finally.

Lars-Christian · #39 03-14-2007, 02:02 PM

I thought I'd just confirm that this is running fine on 3.6.5 - As you can see here.

How can I get $FNB_HTML to display in the homepage of the UserCP. Can someone please either post or PM me.
