vBulletin Dev/Staff Tracker

I have an old "Dev Tracker" that I used when I worked at previous companies that would track the posts from specific posts of individuals in a certain group and post them all out (basically a custom search). It's akin to the "Blue Post Tracker" for Blizzard (ex: http://blue.mmo-champion.com/) but instead lists out the entire post (here's the one I used when I worked on TOR: http://www.swtor.com/community/devtracker.php)

I am looking to get this working in 4.1.12 where my version is from 3.8.5 and will definitely need some changes due to that.

With this upgrade, I would also like to:
  • make the ForumIDs something that can be configured view Options instead of hardcoded
  • make the GroupIDs something that can be configured view Options instead of hardcoded

... this way they can be changed via Options instead of having to upload the file each time a change is needed.

Once done, I'd like the mod released to the community since I see a couple people have been requesting something like it over the years.

Like I said, I have the original version so you wouldn't have to start from scratch but it would need someone that understands both 3.8 and 4.1 versions of vBulletin. I was wondering if there is anyone here who would be interested in helping with something like this.

- Sean

I am aware of the Staff Tracker mod by GeekyDesigns and I am already using that. There mod is different than what I am looking for - it shows in forumdisplay and in the thread itself if there is a staff post. What I am looking for (in conjunction to that) is a custom search as I wrote above.

Who wrote the 3.x version of your mod? Is it available here?

I have it at home (at the office right now). It was written ages ago for me by a community member that I used when I worked at a few different mmo sites/companies.

I can upload it tonight (or make a mod of it) since it was created for me to use publicly (and free of charge). The original guy was going to update it for me but he's unfamiliar with vB4.

Forgot I had attached it when I was emailing him recently about it. Here is the code for it:


Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)  
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

Note that these are the variables I would like to make config options:


Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)  
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.



Should I add it as a mod? Unsure how much 3x is used these days...

I can see there are at least 2 templates also part of the mod (Probably in the product XML file) - someone would need all of it (the xml file) to try an upgrade it to VB4.

And no, as is it's not a complete mod so there is no mod to release.

I'll find the rest when I get home tonight. I have backups of all the sites/stuff I did so it'll be in there somewhere.

Thanks for the help.

I have someone working on this now and it'll become a public mod once done. I'll make sure to post a link to it here then.

Thanks Sean. Did you pay them? If so I'd happily send you a small token of good will via Paypal if you like? PM me if you want. Otherwise, I await posting, thanks.
