Steam Connect



INFO


-- Steam Connect Addon for vBulletin 4.2.x;
Development Platform := vBulletin 4.1.3 - 4.2.0, Debian Linux, PHP5, MySQL5, apache2;

Dependencies := lib cUrl (PHP), openid (included);

Author := Andreas "Radon" Rudolph, Disasterpiece;

Contact := radon@purgatory-labs.de, https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/member.php?u=198844

Homepage := http://purgatory-labs.de


WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW BEFORE INSTALLING

This addon is Unsupported as of 2015 until further notice. I have not enough time or interest in vbulletin to keep this alive.

This addon provides a framework for future extensions which make use of the Steam API.
It helps to determine the SteamID of an user. Unless older methods of inserting the steam
id into a user field, the addon lets the user authenticate with Steam OpenID, therefore
you can trust 100%, that this particular user is the same user as the Steam-ID provided.

Users can link their Steam ID to their forum account or they can create a new account
using details pulled from their Steam Profile.
Like the Facebook connect plugin, it allows users to quickly set up a forum account without
having to define a password or an email address. This option can be disabled in the AdminCP,
however it is encouraged to allow users to use this quick-register feature, since they
already authenticated themselves through steam, so any additional password or email
authentication is just unnecessary.

If the user decides to un-link his forum account with his steam-profile, he has to set up
a password and email first, so the forum account remains usable after this.

At the moment, the addon is in its second RC state, which means that the current versions contain mostly bugfixes and are candidates for a full release.
Until now, the product worked without major problems in productive environments.
Although it is stable as is, the author doesn't provide any guarantee.
Due to the nature of the addon and how vBulletin manages 3rd party code inclusion, additional
login and register methods have been provided by the plugin. It is discouraged to use the
plugin on high profile communities in this early development state.

If you have any further questions, feel free to post in this thread.


F.A.Q. / General Issues / Error Messages

"There has been a problem with the OpenID libary: No OpenID Server found at http://steamcommunity.com/openid"
- Additionally, a 503 HTTP error is thrown. Simple solution: Wait. Steam Community servers are overloaded/down right now, there's nothing you can do about it

Do NOT uninstall the mod if you want to keep the linked users records. Upgrading means uploading the new product xml file for the new version and choose "overwrite" in the upload dialog.
The Installer will handle the update process by its own. Uninstalling the product will erase all the table fields which contain the steam link data.

Hit a weird bug, with any user who's signed in using steam, if you click on their profile picture, then from within the players profile, click the profile picture again, you get: "This user has not registered and therefore does not have a profile to view."

The URL links the player wrong for some reason, not sure why.

Can you show the url as it should be and as it is redirected to the broken profile?

for example, while on the profile, the link

http://example.com/member.php/48-Perty509

When hovering over the profile picture from within the profile, it links to:
http://example.com/member.php/Perty509

^ this is the invalid link that then takes you to the page where it says: "This user has not registered and therefore does not have a profile to view."

Glad I'm not the only one having a similar issue, I reached out to vbulletin.com support thinking it might have been a bug there but they seem stumped so I'm assuming it may be the result of this addon?

At any rate Disaster, thank you for the assistance in this and for the wonderful addon, it's been great thus far.

Vbulletin support's feedback:

"Hello.

I've just uploaded a profile picture to the vBSupport account however it's not showing on the profile which would suggest that something is modifying the code and preventing these from displaying correctly. When I upload an image on my 4.2.1 test site, it works correctly and displays the correct URL."

Hi,

I've recently installed this onto our forum and when I try to sign in using the sign in with steam button, I get a http error page with this message:

Quote:
The website encountered an error while retrieving http://www.st0rm.net/forum/login2.ph...FE4NjfX2MN0%3D. It may be down for maintenance or configured incorrectly.
I've followed the install steps precisely and changed the permissions for the files :-\ Anyone know how to solve this?

Extra Info:
Forum System: vB 4.2.0 running on Debian 7 Apache 2.2.22 PHP 5.4.4-13 MySQL 5.5.28-1
The SQL entries appear to have been created successfully. In vb_user it's added steam_link and steam_code fields and in vb_datastore it's created steam_softlinks which just contains a:0:{}

The buttons appear to work, as when I click on them, I can log into the Steam Page, it's when it returns me to our forum/login2.php URL that it throws the error.

Disasterpiece,

I was just curious if you were able to look into the issue I reported a bit ago, was wondering if you found the issue.

Thanks!

For some reason it does not show up in our header or registration area. Were not seeing any errors. Help?

I'm having a problem where people trying to register end up with the following error:

Quote:
There has been a Problem with your input:
  • A required field called Nationality is missing or has an invalid value.
  • A required field called Enter the first character of the word "Monkey" is missing or has an invalid value.
I've checked my register_steam template is up-to-date with the default template and it contains the inserts for the custom required fields but they aren't being populated.


What can I do to a) override the required fields for people using Steam Connect or b) include those fields?

EDIT:
Two points:

1. After further investigation it appears that the code to retrieve the custom fields is missing from login2.php. I seem to have fixed the issue by copying lines 1034-1315 & 1317-1319 from register.php and inserting them at line 754 of login2.php - works for me as a temporary solution but no promises on it's reliability or safety.

2. This mod is uncompatible with the Spambot Stopper mod and results in a php error at final submission for users. Not sure if the author wants to add support or just put a warning somewhere.

What's the best fix for this DisasterPiece?
