This hack allows the user to specify an image from anywhere on the internet to appear under their user name. It was initially requested here.

This is my first public hack that serves a purpose, so be gentle. It's a little rough around the edges, possibly my good friends Mike or freddie could take a look and see if I forgot anything.

Here is an example:

http://www.bronx-bombers.com/vb114/s...php?threadid=2

Here is the code:

First, run the following SQL query to create a new field in the user table:

ALTER TABLE user ADD imgurl VARCHAR (100) not null

Next, open showthread.php:

Find:

Code:

$temps=$DB_site->query("SELECT title,template 
                        FROM template 
                        WHERE title='error_invalidid' OR title='error_nopermission' OR 

title='$foruminfo[rulestemplate]' 
                           OR title='forumrules' OR title='error_forumclosed' OR 

title='showthread_numpages' 
                           OR title='postbit_useremail' OR title='icq' OR title='aim' OR 

title='yahoo'
                           OR title='postbit_homepage' OR title='postbit_profile' OR 

title='$usetemplatebit' 
                           OR title='firstunread' OR title='showthread_nextnewestthread' 
                           OR title='showthread_nextoldestthread' OR 

title='$foruminfo[headertemplate]' 
                           OR title='$foruminfo[footertemplate]' OR title='$usetemplate'");
while ($temp=$DB_site->fetch_array($temps)) {
  $templatecache["$temp[title]"]=$temp[template];
}

Replace With:

Code:

$temps=$DB_site->query("SELECT title,template 
                        FROM template 
                        WHERE title='error_invalidid' OR title='error_nopermission' OR 

title='$foruminfo[rulestemplate]' 
                           OR title='forumrules' OR title='error_forumclosed' OR 

title='showthread_numpages' 
                           OR title='postbit_useremail' OR title='icq' OR title='aim' OR 

title='yahoo' OR title='custom_img'
                           OR title='postbit_homepage' OR title='postbit_profile' OR 

title='$usetemplatebit' 
                           OR title='firstunread' OR title='showthread_nextnewestthread' 
                           OR title='showthread_nextoldestthread' OR 

title='$foruminfo[headertemplate]' 
                           OR title='$foruminfo[footertemplate]' OR title='$usetemplate'");
while ($temp=$DB_site->fetch_array($temps)) {
  $templatecache["$temp[title]"]=$temp[template];
}

Find:

Code:

$posts=$DB_site->query("SELECT post.dateline as dateline,post.postid as postid,post.pagetext as 

pagetext,
                               post.allowsmilie as allowsmilie,post.signature AS

                               post.ipaddress as ipaddress,post.iconid as iconid,post.username as

                               post.userid as userid, 
                               user.userid as userid,user.email as email,user.username as username,
                               user.usertitle as usertitle,user.signature as

                               user.homepage as homepage,user.icq as icq,user.aim as aim,user.yahoo 

as yahoo,
                               user.joindate as joindate,user.posts as posts 
                        FROM post 
                        LEFT JOIN user ON (user.userid = post.userid) 
                        WHERE post.threadid=$threadid AND visible=1 
                        ORDER BY dateline $postorder
                        LIMIT $limitlower,$perpage");

And Replace With:

Code:

$posts=$DB_site->query("SELECT post.dateline as dateline,post.postid as postid,post.pagetext 

as pagetext,
                               post.allowsmilie as allowsmilie,post.signature AS

                               user.usertitle as usertitle,user.signature as

                               user.homepage as homepage,user.icq as icq,user.aim as aim,user.yahoo 

as yahoo,user.imgurl as imgurl,
                               user.joindate as joindate,user.posts as posts 
                        FROM post 
                        LEFT JOIN user ON (user.userid = post.userid) 
                        WHERE post.threadid=$threadid AND visible=1 
                        ORDER BY dateline $postorder
                        LIMIT $limitlower,$perpage");

Find:

Code:

    if ($userinfo[icq]!="") {
      $icqnumber=$userinfo[icq];
      eval("\$icq = \"".gettemplate("icq")."\";");
    } else {
      $icqnumber="";
      $icq="";
    }

And After It, Add This:

Code:

    if ($userinfo[imgurl]!="") {
      $custom_img=$userinfo[imgurl];
      eval("\$imgurl = \"".gettemplate("custom_img")."\";");
    } else {
      $custom_img="";
      $imgurl="";
    }

Save and close showthread.php.

Open member.php

In the "Modify Profile" function, find:

Code:

  $timezoneoffset=$userinfo[timezoneoffset];

After it, add:

Code:

  $imgurl=htmlspecialchars($userinfo[imgurl]);

In the "Update Profile" Section, Find:

Code:

  $DB_site->query("UPDATE user 
                   SET password='".addslashes($password)."',email='".addslashes($email)."',
                      

parentemail='".addslashes($parentemail)."',coppauser=$coppauser,homepage='".addslashes($homepage)."

',
                      

icq='".addslashes($icq)."',aim='".addslashes($aim)."',yahoo='".addslashes($yahoo)."',
                      

biography='".addslashes($biography)."',signature='".addslashes($signature)."',adminemail=$adminemai

l,
                      

showemail=$showemail,invisible=$invisible,cookieuser=$cookieuser,daysprune=$prunedays,
                      timezoneoffset=$timezoneoffset,emailnotification=$emailnotification 
                   WHERE userid=$userid");

And replace with:

Code:

  $DB_site->query("UPDATE user 
                   SET password='".addslashes($password)."',email='".addslashes($email)."',
                      

parentemail='".addslashes($parentemail)."',coppauser=$coppauser,homepage='".addslashes($homepage)."

',
                      

icq='".addslashes($icq)."',aim='".addslashes($aim)."',yahoo='".addslashes($yahoo)."',
                      

biography='".addslashes($biography)."',signature='".addslashes($signature)."',adminemail=$adminemai

l,imgurl='".addslashes($imgurl)."',
                      

showemail=$showemail,invisible=$invisible,cookieuser=$cookieuser,daysprune=$prunedays,
                      timezoneoffset=$timezoneoffset,emailnotification=$emailnotification 
                   WHERE userid=$userid");

Go ahead and update those files, now we have to edit templates:

Open the "modifyprofile" template, and put the following code in there somewhere:

Code:

<tr bgcolor="#DEDEDE">

<td><B><FONT face="verdana, arial, helvetica" size="2" >Custom Image URL:</font></B></td>
<td><INPUT TYPE="TEXT" NAME="imgurl" VALUE="$imgurl" SIZE=30 MAXLENGTH=100></td>

</tr>

Save That.

Open the "postbit" template, and add this wherever you want to put the image, specifying the proper height and width:

Code:

<img src="$custom_img" height="xx" width="xx">

That's it, you're all done.

I just noticed that for users that don't specify an image, you get an red x - I'll try to fix that now.

Other than that, I can't provide a lot of support, because I forgot half of what I did

How about setting a default image for everybody then all they have to do is change it. that way you wouldn't get a red x

#3 12-06-2000, 07:19 PM

I could do that, but I want to have it so it only appears if there is a URL specified, like the way the homepage link is setup.

Oh there's a red x? No, no I would rather prefere no images at all if not specified by the user.
BTW tnx for this great hack JimF!!!! :thumbup:

Er... actually the table "user" does not exist.
Also, instead of the image I got a broken image URL linked to my board url (like "http://www.mydomain.com/forums/").

#6 12-06-2000, 08:13 PM

Also
I noticed that the URL image cannot be saved on the profile: everytime I go back to my profile, the "Custom Image URL" field is empty.
Maybe does it depend on the missing MySQL table field?

#7 12-06-2000, 08:14 PM

Is this on your site, or on my demo site?

You need to create the row in MySQL or it won't work.

It's on my site but I'm realizing just now that something may have been fu**ed up. There are some tables missing on my DB! Or maybe phpMyAdmin went crazy...

#9 12-06-2000, 08:32 PM

OK, le't say I made clear that the DB is still working properly. I've only a strange phpMyAdmin problem which is not reporting all tables...

Anyway, I can remember that when I inserted your MySQL command I got a confirm message that everything went fine.

Now, the only thing is the fact that instead of the image I get that broken img linked to my board index...

There is always my Avatar hack which sets a default of no image, instructions for using it w 1.1.4 are at the end of the thread
