UBB.Developers Forums UBB.classic V5 Mod Questions Memberlist v2.3 - All the Good Stuff

Time for the newest release of Memberlist: v2.3. New in this version is:

• Search by Location, Occupation, or Interests.
• Ability to add or remove any column and organize them however you choose.
• Addition of Y!Mess hack (thanks AJ).
• Smarter, cleaner, faster code.
• Cleaner HTML code.
• COPPA compliant (won't list unconfirmed COPPA registrations).

You can find a demo of the script here:
http://www.magictraders.com/cgi-bin/ubb/memberlist.cgi

You can download the ZIP file here:
http://www.magictraders.com/ubb/memberlist.zip

Or, the TAR GZ file here:
http://www.magictraders.com/ubb/memberlist.tar.gz

Be sure to read the README.txt file before installing or upgrading, as there are new modifications you'll have to make to ubbmisc.cgi. Also, you'll have to run lettercreate.pl again.

Enjoy!

Arrrh - please add cellpadding=1. It doesn't fit with the rest of the UBB.

Leshrac, nice job as always

A small update: the bug where deleted members show up as blank lines has been fixed. This doesn't really warrant a version increase since it only affects one line of code. All you need to do is download the ZIP or GZ again and replace memberlist.cgi.

Oh, and cal, if there's bug you have a fix for or something you'd like to see with the script, I'd prefer if you'd e-mail me. I didn't say anything when you took credit for my New Member Data script, since it was pretty small, but I've spent a lot of time reworking nearly the entire code for this script and I'd like to keep my name attached to it.

Me2Be - The change is to line 207 of memberlist.cgi. The old line was:

if (($thisprofile[4] ne '&') && ($thisprofile[4] ne '&COPPA')) { #exclude banned members

The new line should be:

if (($thisprofile[0] ne '') && ($thisprofile[4] ne '&') && ($thisprofile[4] ne '&COPPA')) { #exclude banned members

It basically just checks to make sure an actual profine was retrieved.

Nice job! I like it!


Dr D:
LOL! Everyone is starting to copy cal now

I would like to make this so only registered members of the board can read the results of this list.

How would I go about password protecting this page?

Thanks,
Parker

Leshrac:

It was just a quick patch for the script for this board only. UBBMaster asked me to post it, so I did. You may also notice that I didn't, at any point, call it "my hack". Rather than waiting for confirmation from you (which would have been a day since we're in different time zones), I just relased some *small* bug fixes.

The next bit really annoyed me:
Could you be referring to the one which is down in the database as "hack by cal, based on Leshrac's reginfo hack". Maybe you were referring to the readme, but wait, that has you name and email in it. Or possibly the source itself. Nope - that has only your name in it. I didn't steal your code - I used it to make a useful hack and at the time you aknowleged that. Why are you getting so tetchy about me releasing fixes for your code - do you think that your code is perfect or something?

Lastly, I would never pass off someone elses code as my own. That's just not fair.

he he he lol

i agree with leshrac, they put ]a lot of work into it, when i first logged into ubb hacks finished i saw your thread first, so I thought you made it.

What, so if you logged onto a CYMPM thread you'd think Mutt had made it. Well he did, but he didn't invent it. His hack was based on other people's code. Exactly the same happened with the New Member Data hack (have you even seen the two version Dollarz?).

Is Leshrac saying that if he releases code, for public use, that someone can't modify it? The New Member Data hack is a stupid example for Leshrac to use. The original (by him) was 3338 bytes long, and outputted a raw text file. My version, in which i fully credited him was 14,030 bytes long and outputting a formatted HTML file - over 4 times longer. It's not as if I stole his code and called it my own. All I did was modify it, with his permission, into a script that people wanted to use.

If your attitude is that people can't modifiy your code, then don't release it.

Yo listen up

oh, now i understand

sorry i doubted you cal

Like I said, I don't really care about the regdata script, I do care about diverting attention away from the main Memberlist script though. Updating a small bit of the code and then posting the entire script right after I just posted the update is in extremely bad form. Sorry if it's being selfish, but I do like getting some amount of credit for the coding I'm doing for free. I'm not saying "don't modify the code," what I am saying is that if it's just a small fix, post the fix so it can be added, if it's a major change, then post the whole script. I'd like to include an option to enable the modifications you've done, but I can't because you didn't post what they were.

Anyway, the real v2.3a is out now, and includes the fixes Me2Be suggested, and an option to have the list only viewable to registered users, per the request of Parker Clack. You can download the ZIP or GZ at the usual locations.

Oops! Thanks for catching that, the files have been updated.

Leshrac:

Thanks so much for the extra code to check for user membership. I just didn't want a bunch of surfers having this information on our members and really no way to track them.

Parker

I noticed that if I have new members sign up and I haven't rebuilt the page it shows up blank spaces across the page where the new members should be.

Parker

Did you remember to make the modifications to ubbmisc.cgi?

This is a great hack!!! Anybody figured out how to center the text under Date Reg., Posts, and ICQ columns? As it is now, the text is left justified.

How do I run the lettercreat.pl in telnet? I am trying but it is not working. I can run Memberlist.cgi and it shows no one. It says 4 members but does not shoe 4 members. Whats up? Version 5.45c of UBB!

God is Awesome

Thanks for any help

I don't know but maybe I'm stupid.....
I installed this hack on my board and when I run memberlist.cgi manually it works great, but should'nt it add a button or link on the main board that linking to that memberspage ?

I cannot find it anywhere on the ubb....
Please help me out..

Need some answers.. you see, I enjoy having the memberlist but it is a bit crowded and cannot seemt to look nice on my ubb. How can i change the size of the title font and what if i do not want to display the interest option? Help me please..

------------------
+ acidstars +

If anyone else have the same problem and want the memberlist link shown up on the UBB page, I think I solved the problem, here is what I did

Open Ultimate.cgi

Search for string

TITLE="Click here to edit your profile.">profile | register |);
}

Replace it with

TITLE="Click here to edit your profile.">profile | register | memberlist |);
}

save and close Ultimate.cgi
open forumdisplay.cgi
and do the same thing in there

Hope this works

Hi, I tought i'd let you know I did this update to get the link the link shows up fine on front page and when you enter a threat but its not in topics.. You can take a look at my site www.dealking.net

Good Job, but if you want the MEMBERLIST to appear everywhere, you gotta do the same step under ubb_library too........
I dunno why, but just do it...

I don't find that in ubb_liberay ???

It's in ubb_library2.pl.

Leshrac, BTW you capitalized the "M" in memberlist.cgi as I recall at least in my ubb directory it's lower case. Just my 2 cents....

You need to do it in Ultimate.cgi, ubb_library2.pl and forumdisplay.cgi

Just a thought

Memberlist.cgi work well fine but no lettercreate.pl..

when lettercreate work than get i 0 user register.. hmmm i have 5 members..

how can solve?

Enable the "ALL" option if you haven't already.

Leshrac Nice Job!
Couple of questions.
How do I make it in a table, with lines in it, like the membership list on this board. Also I have added a new feild on my site "Equipment", can I add this to the membership ?
And I was at your website, who did you put that table on your webpage showing posts on your forum ?
Thanks
