Add Who's Online Locations From Admin CP
Developer Last Online: May 2009 This modification is in the archives.
General Info
This hack was requested to be available on Vbulletin 3. Being bored, I figured I would take the task in hand and complete it, to be better than it ever was before. The original designer of the hack (on Vbulletin 2) is the well known Chen Avinadav, which being the great coder that he is, I dont particularly agree with his methods in this case, which he used a an excess query to select data from a template and loop through. This uses the built in datastore of vb3, therefore using No extra queries. Therefore this hack is Completely original, in every way. I have used a different method, for accomplishing this, and the control panel I have created is intuitive and utlilizes a great many of vbulletins built in controls and phrases. Looking at the code itself on the admin panel alone you will see I didnt just throw this together and slap it on the site. Total creation time was around 4 hours, the code itself not being the main part, just mainly working out issues with the control panel etc.. Features My version which is completely new, allows you to add the filename for the who's online along with the location name, and URL Title of the link. The control panel which was the longest part, is pretty concise in how it works considering what I did to it. Provides a good bit of error checking to keep from accidentally doing stuff you didn't intend to do. Also should note, the deletion part of the script uses JavaScript to confirm whether or not you wish to delete the selected Location. I hope this gets a lot of installs, being as that my other 2 hacks/bug fixes were really just something I did in a few minutes and didn't put a great deal of effort into, judging by the fact I didnt have to "edit" any vbulletin files, to do what I wanted. This is really my first release on this site, that I can say I believe is unique in its effort, and shows some insight on things for the newer coders out there. I have put a great deal of effort into the setup of everything as well as the readme file to be concise and as easy to read and understand as possible. Hopefully hack of the month, lol.. j/k Installation I have provided an readme file inside of the zip, with information on how to install the hack, and what needs to be done to do so. Its a fairly easy installation, as you only have to add things. Other Misc. Files To Modify: 2 Total Modifications: 6 Installation Difficulty: Easy Version Updates Version 1.0 = First Release Version 1.1 = Fixed Weird Query Error For Some People Version 1.2 = Added ability to enable/disable links for locations Click install if you like.

Would this be able to differ things such as, index.php, index.php?page=contact, index.php?page=links all as different who's online locations?
So basically, using vbindex created pages, would I be able to add the extra pages to the who's online with this hack? |

In the array I would have to specify what variable would determine which pages to look for, I obviously wouldnt just make it to match against ?page= only, then i would have to have it loop through sub arrays for that. Thats a lot more than what this hack is generally designed for, its just to add it for different .php files. If you want, a little later I will create a seperate hack and paste it in this thread just for that purpose of allowing multiple locations per .php file.
Is an example of what that multidimentional array could look like...not very pretty, which is why i didnt make this hack to start off like that in the first place.

Hmm, can you paste the error, it should work fine with about any type of vb3 installation. Do you have table prefixes etc..?

Here you go... No table prefixes - I don't like to over-complicate.
