WHAT's THIS
  • This product adds a public friends and/or buddy list in the profile.
  • What are friends? Friends means you are on each others buddylists. It is no seperate addition/addon. It's all based on vb's buddy system.
  • Need more info? Look at the attached screenshots, or the live demo(s).
  • Avatars/profilepics will not show up, if stored in filesystem!
  • Need some kind of informing the users, which have been added to a buddy list? Look at the AutoPM after addBuddy Plugin by Antivirus
  • The product adds 2 queries to the profile page


INSTALLATION

Install with product manager.

Set your preferences in the acp (vBulletin options)

Add
PHP Code:
$FNB_HTML 
somewhere in your MEMBERINFO template. Whereever you'd like to show up the friends or buddies. If you're not sure what to do, search for
Code:
<if condition="$show['signature']">
in your MEMBERINFO template and add it before that line.

OPTIONAL (User selectable)

If you want to have this user-selectable you need to add a custom profile field. Create the new field as a radiobutton, give it a name and description of your choice, the options yes and no and use the following code instead of only $FNB_HTML:

HTML Code:
<if condition="$userinfo[fieldXX] == yes">$FNB_HTML</if>
(if user wishes to show up)
or

HTML Code:
<if condition="$userinfo[fieldXX] != no">$FNB_HTML</if>
(show by default, user can deactivate it)

Remember to replace XX with the number of the new profilefield!

TODO

  • Looking into avatar/profilepicture display/detection
  • Online status of friends/buddies
  • ?SEO compatibility?


LIVE DEMO(S)
