General SMF Forum / Re: Rebuild IDs?
« on: August 08, 2007, 06:45:11 pm »
I don't think having completely contiguous user IDs will be any problem for Joomla or SMF.

Its quite common for their to be missing numbers in the sequence as users get deleted or inactive user accounts pruned.

You could write a script, but it would have to renumber not only each user, but also all references to it which link it to posts/topics/arcade scores/pms/edits etc etc.

My advice is not to bother.  It won't be a problem.  Mine has no problem with it (using smf).  If your still unsure about joomla, you could always doublecheck over at their forums.

Simple & Easy, install. (DONE!)

NO Theme edits are required whatsoever for ANY themes as ONLY source files are altered.

Support
Please use the modification thread for support with this modification.  (Please don't ask me to do the manual edits for you)

Referrals Mod
SMF Version: 1.1.3

Description:

REFERRALS MOD v1.3
By Karl Benson





Introduction
A simple referral modification (with upto 60 day referral tracking cookie).

People using version < 1.3 are recommended to uninstall the current version and re-install 1.3 to get all the bug fixes for proper stats tracking.

Warning!
This mod is an initial release. Please report any bugs you find, no matter how trivial.
Remember to backup your database AND files before installing any modifications, especially initial releases and betas

Installation
Simply install the package to install this modification on the Default theme.

Manual edits will be required to install this modification onto custom themes which have custom templates of the following files;
- Profile.template.php
- Display.template.php
- Register.template.php
- Stats.template.php
- Xml.template.php
(Most custom themes will not have custom versions of all of those files, only where a custom version exists, will you need to perform the edits)

Profile.template.php
Open Themes/{themename}/Profile.template.php, and FIND:
Code: [Select]

// Messenger type information.

ADD BEFORE:
Code: [Select]

// ADDS THE REFERRAL/REFERRED USER INFORMATION TO THE PROFILE SUMMARY
echo '<tr><td colspan="2"><hr size="1" width="100%" class="hrcolor" /></td></tr>
<tr>
<td><b>'.$txt['referrals_referrals'].'</b></td>
<td>'.$context['member']['referralsno'] .'  ';
// SHOW IN DROPDOWN USERSNAME OF THOSE REFERRED
if(!empty($context['member']['referredmembers']))
{
echo '<select>';
foreach($context['member']['referredmembers'] as $x) {
echo $x;
}
// FREE KEVIN
unset($x);
echo '</select>';
}
echo' </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><b>'.$txt['referrals_referralshits'].'</b></td>
<td>'.$context['member']['referralshits'].'</td>
</tr>';
if (!empty($context['member']['referredby']) && $context['member']['referredby'] != 0)
{
echo' <tr>
<td><b>'.$txt['referrals_referredby'].'</b></td>
<td>'.$context['member']['referredbylink'].' '.$txt['referrals_on'].' '. date("jS M Y",$context['member']['referredon']).'
</td>
</tr>';

}

echo '<tr>
<td colspan="2"><b>'.$txt['referrals_link'].'</b></td></tr>
<tr><td colspan="2" style="text-align:center;"><input type="text" value="'.$scripturl.'?referredby='. $context['member']['id'] .'" style="width:330px;"/></td>
</tr>';


Display.template.php
Open Themes/{themename}/Display.template.php, and FIND:
Code: [Select]

// Show how many posts they have made.
echo '
', $txt[26], ': ', $message['member']['posts'], '<br />
<br />';

REPLACE WITH:
Code: [Select]

// Show how many posts they have made.
echo '
', $txt[26], ': ', $message['member']['posts'], '<br />';

// show how many referrals they have made
echo $txt['referrals_referrals'].' '.$message['member']['referralsno'].'</br></br>';


Register.template.php
Open Themes/{themename}/Register.template.php, and FIND:
Code: [Select]

// Are there age restrictions in place?

ADD BEFORE:
Code: [Select]

// IF REFERRAL INFORMATION IS SET IT WILL HAVE BEEN PASSED USING THIS VARIABLE
global $referrals;
if (isset($referrals))
{
echo ' <tr>
<td width="40%"><b>'.$txt['referrals_information'].'</b></td>
<td>'. $txt['referrals_youwerereferredby'].' '. $referrals['referredbyname'].
' '.$txt['referrals_on'].' '. date("jS M Y",$referrals['referredon']);

// NOW WRITE THE INFORMATION INTO HIDDEN INPUTS TO BE PASSED TO THE NEXT FUNCTION
echo ' <input type="hidden" name="referredby" value="'.$referrals['referredbyid'].'"/>
<input type="hidden" name="referredon" value="'.$referrals['referredon'].'"/>
</td>
</tr>';
}


If your theme has a custom Stats.template.php there are several additional manual modifications required to make the stats show on that theme (although it doesn't stop them being recorded)

If you are still having trouble, I recommend the Modification Parser by Daniel 15

Features
o Adds a referral link to each users profile area
Code: [Select]

http://www.youposted.com/index.php?referredby=1
(where 1 is the user id)

o Users can then paste the link to whoever they want to invite - suitable for email, signatures, messengers, webpages, forums etc
o When a guest/visitor uses the referral link a 'tracking' cookie is placed on their computer, so they can browse away from the link and register on your forum upto 60 days later (unless cookies are deleted) with the referral credited to the referring user.

o Adds 2 Referral stats section showing;
 :: Top 5 Referrers (By Referrals)
 :: Top 5 Referrers (By Referred Members Posts)
 :: Daily/Monthly/Yearly Referrals Stats
o Total Referrals of each user shown in the poster information of each post
o Referrals information shown in Profile Summary
 ::  Shows referral link in profile
 ::  Showing No. of Referrals
 ::  Dropdown showing each member user has referred
 ::  Referral Hits (a.k.a No. of Clicks on your referral link)
o Referred member information also shown in Profile Summary
::  If user was referred, shows the user who referred them and the original date of referral

Support
Please use the modification thread for support with this modification.  (Please don't ask me to do the manual edits for you)

Before you request a crazy feature addition...
... please remember that this is a SIMPLE referral mod. I intend to keep it as simple as possible with only minor tweaks, bug fixes and updates for future SMF version support.

'Buy Me A Beer' Mod
SMF Version: 1.1.3, 1.1.2, 1.1.1

Description:

BUY ME A BEER v1.1
By Karl Benson



Link to Mod | Comment On This Mod


Introduction
Allows users to reward other users for their posts by buying them a beer (or at least donating enough money via Paypal to buy one).

Warning!
This mod is an initial release. Please report any bugs you find, no matter how trivial.
Remember to backup your database AND files before installing any modifications, especially initial releases and betas

Installation
Simply install the package to install this modification on the Default theme.

Manual edits will be required for themes which have a custom profile (1x edit) and/or custom display template (1x edit)
AND you will need to place a copy of the image buymeabeer.gif in the image folder of each of your themes (Themes/{themename}/images/)

Open Themes/{themename}/Profile.template.php, and FIND:
Code: [Select]

// All the messenger type contact info.

ADD BEFORE:
Code: [Select]

// Paypal Address For 'Buy Me A Beer Mod
echo ' <tr>
<td width="40%"><b>', $txt['buymeabeer'], ': </b><div class="smalltext">', $txt['buymeabeer_desc'], '</div></td>
<td><input type="text" name="buymeabeer" size="24" value="', $context['member']['buymeabeer']['name'], '" /></td>
</tr><tr>
<td colspan="2"><hr width="100%" size="1" class="hrcolor" /></td>
</tr>
';


Open Themes/{themename}/Display.template.php, and FIND:
Code: [Select]

// Show online and offline buttons?
if (!empty($modSettings['onlineEnable']) && !$message['member']['is_guest'])

ADD BEFORE:
Code: [Select]

// SHOW BUY ME A BEER
if (!$message['member']['is_guest'] && $context['user']['is_logged'] && !empty($message['member']['buymeabeer']))
{
$priceofbeer = 5 ; // In US Dollars no cents
echo'<br/>
<a href="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_xclick&business=' , htmlentities ($message['member']['buymeabeer'], ENT_NOQUOTES, "UTF-8") , '&item_name=' , htmlentities ($txt['pleasebuymeabeer'], ENT_NOQUOTES, "UTF-8") , '&amount=', $priceofbeer ,'%2e00&no_shipping=0&no_note=1&tax=0&currency_code=USD&lc=US&bn=PP%2dDonationsBF&charset=UTF%2d8" rel="nofollow" title="', $txt['buymeabeeralt'] ,'"><img alt="', $txt['buymeabeeralt'] ,'" border="0" src="', $settings['images_url'] , '/buymeabeer.gif" border="0"/></a><br/>';
}


If you are still having trouble, I recommend the Modification Parser/ by Daniel 15

How Do I Use This Mod?
An additional option is added to the users profile to enter their paypal address.
Where the user has entered their paypal address, a 'beer glass' icon appear in the poster information area of users posts.  The alt text when hovering over the icon states 'Buy Me A Beer Through Paypal' [must be logged in to see] and when clicked takes the user to the paypal page.

Screenshots
On the profile area

In the poster information area of posts


Customisation
$5 for a beer?  Seems reasonable, but if you want to change it you can do so easily by editing the Display.template.php and FIND the line below and REPLACE the 5 with another digit (must be a whole number, no decimals).
Code: [Select]

$priceofbeer = 5 ; // In US Dollars no cents


Support
Please use the modification thread for support with this modification.
(Please don't ask me to do the edits for you)

Changelog
1.0 BETA
o Initial release made per SMF user request.
1.1
o Ensured it removes the buymeabeer.gif image on uninstall (as per SMF Modification Guidelines)

Color Bar V2.0
SMF Version: 1.1.1, 1.1 Final, 1.1 RC3, 1.1 RC2

Description:This modification adds a cool clickable color bar to the post area which can insert [color] and (new in V2) [bgcolor] tags
      



If you have the Enhanced Quick Reply mod by Kirby installed (http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=63) this mod will ALSO install itself on the Quick Reply area. (Kirbys mod needs to be installed first if you want it to appear on quick reply).  You DO NOT have to have Kirby's mod installed, it will simply install the rest of the colorbar and ignore trying to install it on the quick reply area.

It also removes the now redundant drop down color bar.
      
- Install Info -      
Tested and works on 1.1.1, 1.1 FINAL, 1.1 RC3, 1.1 RC2. It may not work on older versions as there have been changes to javascript bbcode since.
      
This mod installs onto the Default theme and any theme which uses the default themes Post.template (and Display.template for quick reply, ONLY if Kirbys mod is installed).
For any skin which has its own Post.template.php, it will need to be manually installed (or it wont appear)
Tested in browsers IE5.5-7, Opera, Netscape, Mozilla & Safari
      
- New in 2.0 -
New Features:
:: Adds support for [bgcolor][/bgcolor] (Highlight) tags
:: Switch between inserting Color & Background-Color using a button to switch
:: Intelligent colorbar to disable all/part depending on whether [color] and/or [bgcolor] tags are enabled
Bug fixes:
:: Black/White Bar Of Death (Caused by css file stuck in cache and not updated upon install)
:: Junk code
:: Images - so images dont have to be copied into each skin folder, use from default skin automatically
:: Changed all spellings of Colour to Color
Tweaks:
:: Reorganised colors to be greyscale(white to black) then in rainbow order
:: More colors to make it look smoother & made a bit wider
:: More alt/title/description info tags to help users a bit more
      
- Customising It -
:: The color bar should fit in with almost any skin without any need for customizing, but should you want to
Customizing the CSS:
:: Use the following css classes: .colorbar, .colorcell, .colorbox, .colorboxspacer
Customise the JS:
:: To change the no. of shades per color, alter the cpm variable in the color.js file (default 26) (not recommended)

great feature.

Sub categories on the links system would be useful.  And maybe a better way of displaying the categories.

PhpLinkdirectory.com is the sort of layout which would be gr8.
