(This hack is for vb version 3.7.x & 3.8.x ONLY. For vb 3.6.x, 3.5.x, 3.0.x and 2.x see my profile for relevant threads.)

"WebTemplates" is a vBulletin integrated Content Management System which allows you to create vb integrated "HTML" pages in your vb admin cp very easily. The pages can inherit your vbulletin skin/style, can recognize logged-in user, can be applied permissions per user or usergroup basis, can keep visit logs, hit counts and do many more.

VB4 version Update (9.9.2010): Please find 4.x version of WebTemplates4.x in its own thread.


WEBTEMPLATES 3.7.x BASIC FEATURES:
  • Very Easy Installation : Webtemplates can be installed to your board without modifying even a single vbulletin file. It is coded as a vb product and can be imported very easily.
  • Apply VB Permissions: You can ban any webtemplate to any user or usergroups easily. So for instance you can design a webtemplate which only members can see while guests can not, or only user A can not see etc.
  • Page Counter : Each webtemplate has a built-in counter and you can display page count to your visitors and you can edit it or turn it OFF/ON per webtemplate basis.
  • Visitor Logging&Tracking : You can track certain users' (by usergroup or userid) webtemplate visits to see who visited a webtemplate and when. This is configurable per webtemplate basis.
  • Site Contributers (Editor) Support : You can grant editing permissions for certain users or usergroups for your webtemplates individually and they will be able to update these webtemplates using their own editor interface. vB's WYSIWYG editor is supported in Editor interface.
  • Page Browsers & Who is Online Display: Webtemplates can display who is browsing that webtemplate while visitor is reading them (like default forum browse display of vbulletin). Webtemplate visits can also be monitored in who is online page.
  • Header/Footer Inclusion : Webtemplates can automatically use headers/footers (your default vb header/footer or custom ones)
  • Help Documents : The script comes with an extensive help document.
  • Admin Panel in Webtemplates : Your webtemplates can include an "admin panel" displayed to only admins and by using them you can access many details and stats of your page while you are browsing them.
  • SEO friendly URLs: You can make webtemplate URLs seo friendly in vb settings (Requires apache server).
  • XML Import/Export : XML Import/Export feature allows you to backup your webtemplates and use other hack users webtemplates in your board.
ADVANCED FEATURES FOR ADVANCED USERS:
  • Webquery Feature : With advanced "webquery" feature you can create dynamic webtemplates which include database query results. For instance you can easily add "last 10 threads forum X", "most active users list" etc. to your webtemplates with default webqueries that comes with installation or you can create your custom webqueries with basic SQL knowledge.
  • Multi Parsing : Webtemplates can parse PHP or HTML or TEXT (=smilie/img tags/bbcode parsing like vb posts). This means you can design a page just like vb posts (TEXT parsing), standart HTML (HTML parsing) or even in PHP (PHP parsing).
  • PHPINCLUDE per webtemplate : Every webtemplate has its own "phpinclude" field which you can run PHP codes before loading the Webtemplate
  • Theme Support : Webtemplates support "themes" which are parent webtemplates which include child webtemplates in them. For instance if you have 20 similiar pages which uses the same visual look, you can make a single theme for all of them, then just insert their content into this theme. If you change theme later, all 20 pages' visual will change automatically.
  • Conditionals : Webtemplates supports VB3 template conditionals so you can design webtemplates which change their display under different conditions.
  • Default variables : You can use/display certain variables in your webtemplates like username of the visitor, visitor email address, last visit time, page creation time, page last edit time, Last visitor name, last visit time etc.
Sample WebTemplates from Sites using this hack:
(Some 3.5 and some are 3.0 versions but WebTemplate look and feel didn't change much so both will give you the idea.)

(Actually this hack is one of the most popular vb hacks so it is used by hundreds -if not thousands- of vbulletin sites and you can easily find them if you go to google and search "Logician's WebTemplates" WITH quotation marks)

3.5 version Admin CP screenshot attached to this post. 3.0.x screenshots (here and here) also still applies for this version.

If you use the hack, clicking here will make sure you'll know about updates&bug fixes. It will also help me understand how many people is using the hack so please click the install button if you use it. Thank you..

About this 3.7.xx Version: This 3.7.xx version is same as previous 3.6.x version. 3.6.x version was already working in vbulletin 3.7.x except a few minor bugs and these bugs are fixed in this version to make it dedicated solely to vbulletin 3.7.x. Please see "what's new" in the next post for more details.

Version Updates:
29.July.2008 - > Version 3.7.00
* Hack 3.7.00 is released.

I don't know how to do conditionals. But if you tell me where to look I will learn it.
When you use seperate webtemplates as you do now, you have priviledge to set different options for each webtemplates as you enter them in "edit webtemplate" page.

For instance webtemplate A can use theme A, webtemplate B can be BBcode parsed, webtemplate C can be banned to user C etc.

However when you use single webtemplate for all usergroups obviously you are bound with the settings you entered in that webtemplate so you can't set them seperately for each usergroup.

But if this is not your concern and you are just interested in displaying a different content in that very webtemplate to different usergroups, it is possible via "conditionals". You can see the usage of one conditional in builtin webtemplate named "test". It appears with "hidden text" remark when you login as admin.

Webtemplates inherit the default vb template conditionals syntax so you can use if else conditions just like you use them in your styles:
PHP Code:
<if condition="$bbuserinfo[usergroupid] == 6">
show this text to administrator
</if>
<if condition="$bbuserinfo[usergroupid] == 2">
show this text to registered member
</if> 
etc.

And more info can be found in vb's manual about conditionals.

Thank you for the lovely clear explanation. I have read your documentation again. Then I copied the php from the test page, switched it to html, and it WORKS! HURRAY! I have conditional view pages!

But my first page is using the usergroup tickbox options in admin rather than a conditional php in the webtemplate. It looks to me like that is safer as this is a shared edit page with my mods who might accidentally mess the php conditional at top or bottom.
Does that sound right?

WEB EDITOR .....................................
There was a small problem with the webeditor.
The link already on the page generates a double URL!

http://www.mysite.com/xyz/www.mysite...=edit&pg=testa

I placed a bbcode [URL] link at the top to the editor and it's fine.
I just wondered if you can think of why the code supplied is doing this?
It's OK in View Source, just one URL.

I do have a slightly nonstandard filepath for my vbulletin - it's in directory xyz as you see in the URL. Perhaps this is difficult for your editor script command?

This is great. I'll work on the conditional page to replace forumhome later.

Thank you for everything. This is a very exciting mod. It does powerful things AND the instructions you give are extremely good.
A lot of coders do powerful things but their instructions are not clear. That makes their work useless. I understand why - instructions are my profession and it's a different brain training to code. So someone like you who does both code and instructions well, is rare - an unusual treasure.

You just entered "$WT_Editor_link" in the webtemplate right? This variable is suppose to give you the correct editor link for this page. If you appended it like "http://www.mysite.com/$WT_Editor_link" please dont do it. Just use "$WT_Editor_link" as is. I hope this will fix your problem.

And thanks for kind words!

"$WT_Editor_link"

No I used http://<a href="http://www.mysite.co...g=testt <br />

This link works fine.


It was the little font link that appeared automatically via your script that gave the funny double result.
It's not your code obviously as the View Source link shows it properly.
Probably something on my site.
Unless you can think of something it might be I'll just go on putting the link in manually.

You deserve nice words. I meant it you're very very good.

I have set up my chat room on a web templates page and is working well. The only thing I would like to do now is to include a list of usernames that are on the chat room page (i.e. chatting in the chat room) in the "What's Going On" box at the bottom of the forums home page.

Is there any way that I can adapt the WebTemplates_NowBrowsing template that has the variable $activeusers to specify a page or is there any other way to achieve this with this great mod?

Thanks for any advice.

Well, unfortunately there is no very easy way to do this but if you are familiar with sql queries, you can create a new webtemplate which displays only a single webquery result in it and then in this webquery you can adopt this:

PHP Code:
                                            SELECT user.username, user.usergroupid, user.membergroupids,
                                            session.userid, session.inthread, session.lastactivity,
                                            IF(user.displaygroupid = 0, user.usergroupid, user.displaygroupid) AS displaygroupid,
                                            IF(user.options & " . $vbulletin->bf_misc_useroptions['invisible'] . ", 1, 0) AS invisible
                                            FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "session AS session
                                            LEFT JOIN " . TABLE_PREFIX . "user AS user ON(user.userid = session.userid)
                                            WHERE 
                                            session.lastactivity > $datecut AND  (session.location LIKE '%".$Search_Word_for_session_TB."?%' AND session.location LIKE '".$idSQL."') OR  (session.location LIKE '%".$Search_Word_for_session_TBURL."%')
                                            ORDER BY session.lastactivity DESC 
which is the default query to return a specific webtemplate's visitors.

Then you can put this webtemplate in a iframe to display in any place you like.

I'm sorry it is not very easy and I couldn't find time to do it for you but I at least tried to show you the correct route.

Logician dear man

Plese advise about images in the templates.
Obviously I can hard code with a full site link
http://www.mysite.com/pics/imagefile.jpg

But isn't it better for loading to use relative links?
If I knew where the webtemplate pages are saved I could create a subdirectory in that directory for my pics. Then my image links could be
../pics/imagefile.jpg
which is quicker neater coding.

If you tell me I'm making an unnecessary fuss and just using a full site URL
http://www.mysite.com/pics/imagefile.jpg
then I will do that.

You can use all vb style variables that are used in regular vb templates.

Eg.
$stylevar[imgdir_misc]

Dear Logician

I have a long complex page but just for me to edit. It has to be html - lots of tables and some php conditionals.

One area is not complicated, just plain text, font size, colour, line breaks.
There is one picture at the top.
The text is all in one table cell
<td>Text content</td>

I want to frequently update this by changing the text content.

Your interface in the admin cp and your wyswyg html editor online are both very good indeed so obviously I can already do that.
I REALLY love the online web editor.

But it would be wonderful if I could set tags around this quick-edit text section which the online editor recognises.
Then I can open ONLY that section of simple text in one table cell, to edit.

Plus if possible, replace the picture by changing the URL.

Possible?

Your respectful admirer UK.
