MySpace Profile Mod

[perplexed]

this looks very nice.

How will it interact with other mods like the buddylist mod, the blog mod, the custom profile fields, profile comments etc?  I have all those installed already so will there be some overlap or conflict or will they all play nice together?

Profile picture would be good if you could restrict the height and width and also the file size in kb

People don't use the profiles enough (probably because they are a little boring) except to change their avatars/banners.

I would be very interested in this mod. I have a few custom profile fields so I'd be concerned that it doesn't have any issues with that, otherwise it sounds awesome!

Any progress with this?

Hi! I am very interested in this mod and think that many other admins will be when it gets finished. This type of mod could easily bring more users to your site.

Here is a list of my wishes:

1. At least two additional text fields (e.g.: About me and Interests)
2. User pictures (but limited; e.g.: five images per user, max resolution 800x600)
3. Buddy list (which will also display buddies' avatars, similar to MySpace)
4. Profile comments (with user avatars too, like above)
5. Customization. For example, user will have only one text field in which he will be able to input appropriate CSS customization code. Other users will be able to change whether they want to see customized or plain profiles.

As for the music and videos, I think that there is no need for enabling users to upload their own content to site because there are a lot of sites providing that feature using flash players. Mod should only allow using [flash] BBC for embedding various media available on the net. Also, use of HTML and JavaScript should be forbidden.

Thanks for the input and as far as music/videos (and or any multimedia types) are concerned we have/had already decided that this could pose a security problem.

this looks very nice

Another developer was working on that?

We're running IPB on SG but SM is still SMF.

If anyones interested in helping with the development or beta testing this mod please email me (shomazta / gmail). Also we had postponed work on this mod temporarily due to the supposed claims of SMF 1.1.3 offering what this module is capable of offering.

Here is an example of my mod: http://www.gradnis.net/forum/profiles/JovanT-u1.html. It is in Serbian language.

Its nice to see this mod really taking off! 

So how many people do we have working on this mod?

Any final releases?

[ian1]

Jovan - where can I download it?

Did the myspace mod ever get finished? If so does it work with 1.1.3? And if it does, where can it be downloaded from?

I just downloaded the 0.4 version from the listed link and when I attempted to install, I received two failed errors.

2.    Extract Tree    ./Sources    
3.    Extract Tree    ./Themes

9.    Execute Modification    ./Themes/default/Profile.template.php    Test failed
10.    Execute Code    profilev2_install.php

I am going through with the installation and modifying the two files manually. Will post if this works on a default SMF 1.1.3 w/ TP .9.8.3
