Integration with vBulletin - [Mod-Mall] Wibiya - Facebook like toolbar (with forum user options)

What Wibiya Does
Wibiya adds a bar at the bottom of your forum, that you can use for almost anything from rss feeds, premoting content/facebook/twitter, chat, games...

It has too many features to list but if you go to there website you will get a decent idea..

What This Mod Does
This mod inserts the javascript in your header template, saving you from having to edit or revert your templates every upgrade.

It also has built in conditionals to allow you (or your users) to configure who the script is active for

Currently supports

• Disable for guests
• Allow users to enable/disable from their options
• Set which usergroups to show the bar to (i.e only to members who have donated)
• Set a postcount at which the bar is available
• More coming soon...

How to install

1. Import the xml
2. Register at wibiya.com, and configure your toolbar
3. It should give you some code that looks like the below to insert into your header
   

   <script src="http://cdn.wibiya.com/Toolbars/dir_####/Toolbar_#####/Loader_######.js" type="text/javascript"></script><noscript><a href="http://www.wibiya.com/">Web Toolbar by Wibiya</a></noscript>

4. copy and paste this into the script box found in your admincp under Settings>Options>Add Wibiya Script
5. Activate and configure the add on in the same screen

To allow users to turn the bar on and off

1. Do all the steps listed in install
2. in your admincp go to "Add New User Profile Field"
3. Select "Single Selection Radio Buttons" and fill in the following
   (you can change these as you see fit but these are my setup)
   • Title: Wibiya (or whatever you like)
   • Description: Turn the toolbar at bottom of page on or off.
   • Profile Field Category: Doesn't matter
     
   • Options:
     • On
     • Off
   • Display Order: Doesn't Matter
   • Field Required: No
   • Field Editable by User: Yes
   • Private Field: No
   • Field Searchable on Members List: No
   • Show on Members List: No
4. Save that, and note down the name (note this isn't the title and should be something like "field13"
5. Go back to Settings>Options>Add Wibiya Script
6. Fill in the What is the fieldid box with the name of your field
7. Fill in the disabled text (in the example above this would "Off" without the quotes)
8. Select Yes to allow users to enable/disable toolbar

How to upgrade

1. Import the xml, set overwrite to allow/yes/on
2. Check the settings at Settings>Options>Add Wibiya Script

Releases
V1.0 - Initial Release
V1.1 - Extended Features, now allows for options other than on/off
V1.2 - Bug fix (please note you now must enter the disabled text in settings)

To Do List

• [S]Additional user checks (User ID, Usergroup)[/S] - Done V1.1
• [S]Allow different field options (i.e different to on/off)[/S] - Done V1.1
• Additional forum checks (Forum ID)
• Additional style checks

Notes
I will support this modification but not Wibiya... if you need help signing up or using the service... You can find help on the wibiya.com website.

Do not remove the attributation link...

Please note I have nothing to do with wibiya, I just needed this for my forum and thought I would be nice....

Nice add-on and different from "apture" ...

Note that it has the same problem "apture" mod has in that it needs to be activated by each user going to profile and saving settings at least once. Perhaps do the same change you did with "apture" with default ON?

Thanks ...

Yeah I haven't upgraded the xml yet (expect one today)...

Unfortunately this is to do with Wibiya not my script... it all depends on how many other pieces of Javascript you've got running on your site

[BadgerDog]

Installed update for testing .. thank you ...

[angeljs]

This is a very welcome mod, thanks!

[BadgerDog]

Un-installed ....

Many add-ons don't work properly with FireFox and Wibiya support in trying to solve the issues was awful.

Thanks for the developer's efforts though ...

I really love this, but my forum is SSL (https). It looks like Wibiya has an SSL option:

In order to install the Toolbar on websites that have SSL/HTTPS web-pages use the following script instead of the usual script:

<script type="text/javascript">
if(window.location.protocol != "https:"){
var f=document.createElement("script");
f.setAttribute("type","text/javascript");
f.setAttribute("src", "http://cdn.wibiya.com/Toolbars/dir_XXXX/Toolbar_XXXXXX/Loader_XXXXX...");
document.getElementsByTagName("body")[0].appendChild(f);
}
</script>

This line :"http://cdn.wibiya.com/Toolbars/dir_XXXX/Toolbar_XXXXXX/Loader_XXXXX..." should be replace with your toolbar source.

What can I do to use this on my site? I'm dying to try this out, but the SSL issue is roadblocking me.

You paste the whole script so just follow the guidelines and put in the script box what you've just qouted...

it seems there a conflict between wibiya and vBulletin's Facebook feature. When wibiya is enabled Facebook doesnt work. wibiya is disabled for the moment.

[Niak_Judge]

Can someone else confirm the Facebook conflct ?

Just go on one of the websites that have said thanks....

i.e http://www.braniteljski-forum.info/forum/forum.php

I can't see any toolbar/chat ...Should I need to register ?
Can someone give me an other demo ? Thanks

[SNATCH3R]

can we have a chat feature with only my friends in my forum....not like yahoo or facebook friends....

Excellent mod....
