Custom VB Profile Hack

[kyle]

Looking for a custom VB Profile Hack to use on my forums. Dose anyone have one? I love sitepoints ( hint :D hint ) It's just what I need.

Any Help out there would be greatly appreciated?

[eva2000]

just edit your templates ;)

[Wayne Luke]

That is mostly what I did... You will have to be more specific about what you want that is like my user profiles.

[BradC]

wayne I showed him what I have done.. told him to get more specific on what he wants besides everything lol..

Kyle ask any questions you have... there is a lot of people around here that will help. But get into more detail of what you are looking for..

[kyle]

I don't need a hack to do this?:confused:

I would like to have a Photo, Last Ten Posts, All About user, Contact Details and Statistics.

Ok guy's" I was asked to get that hack from a partner that's helping me build my forums, I'm still not great at all this so I will have them interject on this thread if he need more help after I inform em it's not a hack but just a edit / template issue.

Thanks" :D

One more thing guy's"

Would it be possible to have that custom profile granted to only certain members, Something Like a VIP profile?:D

[BradC]

anything is possible bud. :)

I would create another user group.. then put in an if else statement in the member.php saying that if they are in this certain group, they get a different template

like getinfo2 instead of getinfo.

As for this being hacks.. not really.. the design or layout is just template changes, adding things like last ten posts, is just doing a little editing to the member.php file, so is the photo.. well depends on which way you want to go. There is the way where you can edit the modifyoptions template and add that they can paste in a url to a photo.. and that url will be displayed in their profile.. which is like 2 or 3 lines of code adding in the member.php file.

My way is to have the photo uploading using my script... which will be released here soon, but if you want more info on that email me and I will let you play with it. :)

I will be more than happy to help you with any of these things that you need... just gotta ask, and maybe emailing me to remind me or tell me what you want.. cause I check my email all the time and have a better response time with that it seems :)

I'd recommend a similar thing - but not quite.
Create a new template, that will only contain the new field you are adding.
Then, on member.php, add an if statement, something like


Code:
---------------
Code is only visible to licensed users, and only when logged into the forums.
---------------


when 6 is the ID of the usergroup, register_vipfield is the template that contains the new field, and you put $vipfield in the main register template.

All credit still goes to Brad on this!

[BradC]

it is probably sitting in my mail account or my outlook.. on my home pc.. lol.. damn mail gets pulled off before I can pick it up half way between.. anyways I will help in anyway that I can :)

[TheComputerGuy]

I think maybe he is asking more for a hack that does this:
Make someone special like they are a moderator typee person but do not have mod powers just a private type forum, or maybe a different type thing when they log...

Is this what you are saying Kyle
?

[kyle]

Almost right" I just need a custom profile to be granted to certain VIP people that are working to better the forum.

One something like the one sitepoint uses
http://www.sitepointforums.com/member.php?s=&action=getinfo&userid=10134

And one as thay are on vbulletin.com." http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/member.php?s=&action=getinfo&userid=3829

Can you do this?

[BradC]

easily.. oh wait I mean I have already done all that.. :)

I am sure TheComputerGuy can too.. :)

but I told him to ICQ me if he needed help..

[kyle]

Thanks BradC" Your a big help Not only to me but from what I ssee to many people...:D Can't wait to see 3.0 It looks like thay are relay hacking it up nice..:D

[BradC]

yah 3.0 is going to be great!!! wajones is the man.. :)

and last night.. I was around for a bit, but then was gone.. for the rest pretty much cause of a freak storm.. hitting my laptop.. lol, so I was tinkering with that.. taking it apart to see what got hit..

[kyle]

BradC, Watch out for the lighting, I had a bolt hit my garage back in 93, Wow :eek: . It destroyed my classic 1969 vette that I since I was 19:mad:

BradC You may be able to help me with advice I need" I'm planning on putting a real cool a useful Financial Charting Applet on 3.o You may be able to understand how this is done, or if it can be done. Here is the Documentation & Description (http://129.142.225.146/netdania/NewSite/docs/FinanceChart/Intro.htm) do you know if this could be easily installed within VB and phpportals.com?

Thats if you have the time to check it out":D

[BradC]

Yah lightning is a pain.. here is what it got so far..

my Nokia Cell Phone, Sony ($700) reciever, Sony ($3,000) laptop.. well was.. hehe..

and I have not even looked a few other things..

I feel sorry about your vette :(... mine was actually by the breaker that blew... so I am lucky!!!

As for your page, yes it can I do believe easily be intergrated... will just take a little time :)
