Function
These modifications on a vbulletin forum allow you to fully integrate the xbox.com gamercard on your forum next to each and every post a user makes.
This will make it look more or less like the integration on our forum.
Important
First always backup the files that you're going to edit so you can revert to the old version if something goes wrong.
We do appreciate if you gave us the due credits for these functions.
Installation
This modification was tested on vbulletin 3.5.0. You might have to put some codes on another location in your files depending on the version of vbulletin your have.
1. Add a gamertag field to your user (editable in profile) =>
vBulletin features a wide array of input options for you to gather information from your members through the creation of custom profile fields. With these fields you can present a list of options for the user to choose from or you can ask the user to give their own input.
Go to the adminCP and add a custom field => User Profile fields => Add New User Profile Field
You need a "Single-Line Text Box"
Title => Gamertag
Description => Xbox Live Gamertag
Default Value => Leave empty
Max length of allowed user input => 30
Display Size => 30
Display Order => put something like 10 or 15
Field Required => No as default but you can change if you want
Field Editable by User => Yes because gamertags do tend to change
Private Field => No the field is public
Field Searchable on Members List => No
Show on Members List => Yes
Regular Expression => leave empty
Save the field
Go to the User Profile Field Manager and look for your custom field you just added and look for the name column there is an ID for the field.
Something like "fieldXX" where XX is a number. Make sure you remember this value.
2. Go to the template you are using (Styles & Templates/Style Manager) and select Edit templates.
Go to "postbit templates" and select the template you are using (probably postbit or postbit_legacy).
and add the following code:
fieldXX is the field value you got from step 1.
You can embed the code in a div or a special table construction but that is up to you.
