Integration with vBulletin - Mediawiki Edits in Postbit & Profile

This hack enables better integration between MediaWiki and vBulletin.

This hack displays a user's total edits made in mediawiki in their posts and on their profile page (similar to vBulletin post count).

Release Info:
v1.0.0: Initial Release

Requirements:
* MediaWiki
* MediaWiki/vBulletin Single Sign-On integration hack. If there is a problem making it work with vb4, please also see Post 112 in that thread.

To install:
* Add the product using the attached product file.
* Perform the 2 simple template edits outlined below.

Template Edits:
1. postbit_legacy or postbit
Find:

<dt>{vb:rawphrase 'posts'}</dt> <dd>{vb:raw post.posts}</dd>

Add Below:

<dt>{vb:rawphrase total_wikiedits}</dt> <dd>{vb:raw post.wikiedits}</dd>

2. memberinfo_block_aboutme
Find:

<vb:if condition="$prepared['lastposturl']">
	<dl class="stats">
		<dt>{vb:rawphrase last_post}</dt>
		<dd><a href="{vb:raw prepared.lastposturl}">{vb:raw prepared.lastposttitle}</a> {vb:raw prepared.lastpostdate} <span class="time">{vb:raw prepared.lastposttime}</span></dd>
	</dl>
	</vb:if>

Insert Below (change the wiki path to your own: i use /home/):

<dl class="stats">
<dt>{vb:rawphrase total_wikiedits}</dt><dd><a href="/home/Special:Contributions/{vb:raw userinfo.username}"> {vb:raw userinfo.wikiedits} </a>
</dd>
 </dl>

Thats it!


Notes:
1. This hack assumes that your mediawiki install uses a "mw_" table prefix in the same database as vbulletin. If this is not the case, do a search/replace in the product XML file before you install it.
2. If mediawiki is installed in a different database, then replace "mw_user" with "wikidatabase.mw_user" (make sure that the forums' database user has access to the other db).

---
This hack is broadly based off AngelBlue's hack hack for a previous release.

Thanks for the mod, we have wiki connected to vb4 on my forum.

Is possible to add post directly to the wiki on the future?

[BRotondi]

Thanks again for you work! Now installed on the server, with this modification, so it appears not for users with 0 Edits and this one, to also link to the Wiki Edits Page.

<vb:if condition="$post['wikiedits'] > 0">
      <dt>{vb:rawphrase total_wikiedits}</dt> <dd><a title="Beitr?ge Wiki" href="/wiki/Spezial:Beitr%C3%A4ge/{vb:raw post.username}">{vb:raw post.wikiedits}</a></dd>
</vb:if>

Greetings, Bruno

anyone know how this works along side vbMediaWiki?

[BRotondi]

I have vbMediaWiki installed, and now reinstalled this one. Works nice, but you don't have to edit memberinfo_block_aboutme, since this is done by vbMediaWiki.
