vBonjour

Easy Customizable Portal System

Brought to you by www.peterska2.co.uk

Welcome to the launch of vBonjour. This is the base package which is required for all installations of this system.

What is vBonjour?
vBonjour is an alternative to vBAdvanced. It is an easy to install, modular portal system designed as a gateway to your site.

Why vBonjour?
This is pretty simple really. As the front page is the first thing that your visitors see, it is a welcome page. The first few names that were thought of were either very boring, or far too long winded and not at all catchy.

This is a base package. What is included?
The base package includes a news feature from up to two forums. The news from the first forum will be displayed first, followed by the news from the second forum. It also includes the left and right columns which can be activated or deactivated via some simple settings in the ACP. These columns can be customised without using any of the Add On Modules, or Add On Modules can be installed to expand on the functionality.

Why is it so modular?
vBonjour is extremely modular to allow for maximum customization of the page. The idea is to make it as easy as possible to install the items that you want to have included, and not have anything which you would be simply turning off. By using a modular method it means that every site can easily achieve their own custom portal without having to know any coding.

I want to add something that isn't already included. How do I go about this?
vBonjour makes use of the plugin system and includes it's own hooks. This allows easy devlopment of additional Add Ons and maximum flexability.

What about the ACP? Is it really complicated?
Unlike other systems, almost all the settings for vBonjour are collected in one setting group in the vBOptions. Because you only install what you want to use, you don't need to have lots of settings. Anything which does not use settings in the Portal settings group is highlighted in the documentation for that Add On.

Ok, so where are the screen shots?
Why have screen shots when you can have a live demo?
The demo is available at www.peterska2.co.uk

What versions of vBulletin does vBonjour work with?
vBonjour will work with vBulletin 3.6.0 and above. Support for sites running versions earlier than 3.6.0 will not be given.

I had never been able to open that demo page, and I have been trying for days now.

IMO all the add-ons should be in the same product. They can easily be turned on/off by going to the Plugin Manager. Also the main portal.php file has some issues:
  • define('NO_REGISTER_GLOBALS', 1); // this is no longer used
  • there is no portal_articlelist template
  • if (forumid1) { // this is missing the $ on the variable
  • if (forumid2) { // this is missing the $ on the variable
  • $news['pagetext'] = $parser->do_parse($news['pagetext'], 1, 1, 1, 1); // this is set to parse HTML
  • these should be initialized: $currentsection, $portal_articlebit, $portal_left_column, $portal_right_column
  • $getnews1 and $getnews2 are basically the same query so try WHERE t.forumid IN ($forumid1,$forumid2)
  • vB doesn't store slashes so stripslashes is not needed
  • look into strip_tags, htmlspecialchars_uni, or use title_clean if available instead of the preg_replace regexp
  • is there a need to GLOBAL $parser; for something
  • what setting is this: $vbulletin->options['vbcms_totalrows']
  • $rownum serves no point as the query already has a limit
  • use $navbits[''] = 'Portal'; not with $parent and phrase the word Portal
  • eval('$portal_articlelist .= "' . fetch_template('PORTAL') . '";'); // this serves no purpose
The attached is an untested revision of the portal.php file, though it may need tweaks or fixes as well because it's untested, so it's up to you to test. Hope it helps.

Cheers for that Calorie.

It needs some issues fixing, and is not recommended for use at the moment.

Is there a way to make it so that the news functions can pull from more than just 2 forums? (I have a category with 4 forums but I want to display all 4 of them as news posts, don't ask me why)

And is there anyway to get the combination to alternate back and forth? Not just, first forum news posts then second forums news posts, I'm talking first forum news post, then second, then first, or if more are involved (up to for, first forum news post, second forum news post, third forum news post, fourth forum news post, first forum news posts, etc.)

Any info or help on this would be great .

Peter,
I'm looking forward to installing this on my live site in a week or so. I've been looking at VB CMPS for a while but never installed it or know what VBadvanced offers that you do not.

1) I assume your mod will use the default skin of the forum ? Will the header banner from the forum be on the front page ? I'm looking for something like we have here on Vb.org

2)Do you have mini calendar modules ? Current poll ? Today birthday ?

3) I mostly need latest 10 thread modules, mini-calendar, news, events, etc

thanks
