Profile Enhancements - Social Networking - MySpace & FaceBook additions to profile, postbit & member's list!

Released with permission from the author of this modification.

This is a re-write of his original code, adapted for myself to add FaceBook & MySpace fields to my users profile & postbit's without the usage of dirty profile fields. This mod is unsupported, but if I have the time I'll try to help.

What you must do to get this working is modify values under Social Networking in the respective FaceBook or MySpace varibles:

FaceBook: You would put in your profile id, so if your FaceBook profile link is..

http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?...40&ref=profile
You would paste 1638992840 in the UserCP on your forum.

MySpace: Similar to FaceBook, you would put in your profile id, so if your MySpace profile link is..

http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm...ndid=236497885
You would paste 236497885 in the UserCP on your forum.

Changes:

1.0: Initial release to public
1.1: Added ability to click to MySpace/FaceBook profiles within user's profile
1.2: Bugs fixed & "Connect With $username Using.." added!

[Strike-Force.ne]

Installed and then Uninstalled until it's a little friendlier. Users of things like this won't use it do the pain required to get the ID number instead of a simple copy and past of the profile URL.

How about an update. The new name profiles for Myspace do not work, can we get a fix or workaround please.

I am currently working on adding you tube and twitter to this mod.
As I am not the original author I will post changes I make to the mod in here.
The changes are for anyone to try and the author to add to his/her mod freely.

Both of the existing site fixes are easy, the urls are merely different.

Face Book Fix
:
Look for:

PHP Code:

<a href="#" onclick="openWindow('http://www.facebook.com/home.php?#/profile.php?id=$userinfo[sn_facebook]&ref=profile'); return false;"> 


Change it to read:

PHP Code:

<a href="#" onclick="openWindow('http://www.facebook.com/$userinfo[sn_facebook]'); return false;"> 


-----

MySpace Fix
:
Look for:

PHP Code:

<a href="#" onclick="openWindow('http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=$userinfo[sn_myspace]'); return false;"> 


Change it to read:

PHP Code:

<a href="#" onclick="openWindow('http://www.myspace.com/$userinfo[sn_myspace]'); return false;">

Attached is an update to this product. I contacted the original author and received no response so I went ahead and made it do what I wanted, which happens to be what many of you want.

Changes:
Added Twitter and YouTube
Updated field types in database to varchar(25)
Changed code to test for each existing table and either make it if it did not exist or alter it to the new type.
Fixed the broken links for MySpace and Facebook in post bits.
Added links to profile.
Changed wording on profile input fields.
Changed image type for icons to PNGs

Things you will need to do:
I provided you some free for use icons, I did not make them I just found them.
Put them in /images/misc with an ftp client.

You should be able to install this as an upgrade over the previous version so look as you allow it to over write. As I said before I did this for me, well honestly one of my members but hey if it helps you out too then cool beans.
