Buddies List 1.0 by live627


Ever wondered why SMF is so hush-hush about who is your buddy? Looking for a simple way to change that? Use this mod which lists all the buddies of a given member.

Features:

• A simple  list of buddies
  
• Permission for viewing said list
  
• A great example of using a few of the new hooks introduced in SMF2
  
• And most importantly, no file edits!
  
  Why is the usage of hooks and no file edits so important?
  
• No matter the language, no missing text and telltale errors all entries are present
  
• No edit conflicts - it doesn't matter if this mod is installed first and uninstalled third; it will just work.
  
• Less files to edit means less permissions hassle. Your Packages directory should still be word-writable, though.

I really like them too. Is there a list or something of all mods that use hooks?

[live627]

No. But here's the thing: some mods that use hooks also use file edits. Like SimpleDesk 2.0 or Dream Portal 1.1. The truthful reason they use both is because SMF lacks so many hooks it's unbelievable. I, as well as Arantor, tried to convince Norv to add many more hooks into 2.0 but he refused, citing the feature freeze as the reason. Only, every concurrent RC has admittedly broken said rule. So history has proven that claim useless.

One thing I should note for mods that avoid file edits is that they generally do not deeply integrate with existing functionality such as deeply interacting with topics or PMs because of the blatant lack of hooks. They mainly add new sections to enhance SMF. Although, as SimpleColorizer shows, the buffer hook can be used to work wonders.

[live627]

Can you open your own support topic in the SMF2 support area? I doubt this mod caused it.

This is a very cool MOD.  But after installing ( no install errors) , when I view another members buddy list, I get about 145 errors in the error log.  Added attached pic below : The member's name doesn't appear next to the user icon ( circled in orange)  and the list of common buddies, you can tell not all names are loaded cause of the excessive commas, circled in green.

That's why i believe the errors are coming from.

^  that line has a different number at the end for each member's id not found.

Would pretty URLs have anything to do with the errors?  I only ue pretty URLs for profiles, so not sure if that could be what is causing the problem?

[live627]

I guess members might have buddiies that have removed their  accounts.

[hcfwesker]

Can't be that because members cant remove their own accounts.  and only members I remove are unactivated accounts older than 30 days.

[live627]

I'll look into this further later when I have some free time.

Thank you for this mod.

The member's name doesn't appear next to the user icon.

I have this problem too in 2.0.2. Was solution ever found?
