MyBB Community Forums

After moving from PhpBB to MyBB on our own forums, we decided to release this small mod.. It allows your users to show what they are playing with a simple modification to your forum. They must sign up at Gerpok.com in order to use this feature.

Usage: [playing]Gerpok Username[/playing]
Example: [playing]Quiky[/playing]
which results in the image below.



Note, the Now Playing bar only displays once per page.

Installation:

inc/functions_post.php

// AFTER
	while(preg_match("#\[list=(a|A|i|I|1)\](.*?)\[/list\]#esi", $message))
	{
		$message = preg_replace("#\[list=(a|A|i|I|1)\](.*?)\[/list\]#esi", "dolist('$2', '$1')", $message);
	}

// INSERT
	while(preg_match("#\[playing\](.*?)\[/playing\]#si", $message)) 
      { 
           $message = preg_replace("#\[playing\](.*?)\[/playing\]#si", "<script src=\"http://gerpok.com/view/js.php?username=$1&bgcolor=CCCCCC&fcolor=000000\" ></script><br />", $message); 
      }

Remember, change BGCOLOR and FCOLOR to match your forum!
(BGColor is background, Fcolor is the text).
