I developed this mini-mod having in mind to deliver a better interface, more info and more configurable Memberlist replacement. Of course you can use it as standalone, or change the link to your navbar to redirect to my page.



1.- What I've in mind to improve next days

• To change the info given in blocks for most active with number of posts and other statistics
• To change the profile in listing by adding more info (eg biography etc). All of them can be turn On/Off by admin. Also to place in profile a popup with related options (eg Email, PM, Add to Buddy etc).
• To add Advanced search, but much more powerfull than vB's. This is the reason that I left empty the left side bar.
• To add in profiles other useful information pulling them from popular mods (eg vbCredits).

2.- Installation


Installation is pretty easy:

1. Upload all files and directories including at "vbulletin" directory to the directory where vBulletin is installed.
2. Check at your AdminCP->vBulletin Options->Plugin/Hook System that Plugin system is enabled.
3. From your AdminCP->Plugin System->Manage Products choose Add/Import Product and import the product: product_memberindex.xml
4. Set the various options at: Member Index Options. If you can't see the menu on the left, press F5. Don't forget to choose which usergroups to show.
5. If you want to replace your current member list, you must edit the navbar template to point to memberindex.php instead of memberlist.php Otherwise you can add a seperate menu.

3.- For your info

This is not a Lite version, as I'm not planing to release a Commercial one. But you can find in our site, a Brand Free version for $15, a very fair amount as I believe. I don't like donations, so this is a great way if you want to support my work and to get something back in exchange.

That's all. Hope to enjoy it

This looks great, thank you.
Can member rating be turned off? I doubt I'd use that option.

Sure you can. If the fields are from the standards in user table then just use:
$userinfo[xxxxx] where xxxx is the field name. Otherwise you need to modify the php code too.

Do you mean in Top Posters? That it dosen't shows Admins? That's the way that I coded it. It shows only Top posters from usergroup=2 (Register Members).
I believe that it has no sense to show Admins and Moderators as they're be always there. In all sites always Admins and Moderators are Top Posters. Let's give a chance to real Members.
