very cool, IMHO this is one of the major components roster needs to become an all purpose guild site solution.

I started work on a forums addon for roster, but it didnt get very far as I got caught up with work.

I'm looking forward to seeing your solution Jabouty.

An option for handling addons is to edit addon.php

addon.php already uses ob_start() to capture output of addons
You could write a preg_match on all <a href="" and <form action="" links in the addons

This would make most addons easily portable, some would require more changes

The problem actually lies in the porting for the roster config variables...to use them with vBulletin (ie to have a vBulletin administration compatible admining of the system) the port needs to use vb's native configuration system, so instead of calling $roster_conf['whatever_setting'] it needs to call $vbulletin->options['whatever_setting']. The same for the language, instead of $wordings['whatever'], vb calls $vbphrase['whatever']. There in lies my issue atm.

For the moment I'm going to do hardcode on the ports of addons I'm including with the system, but later on I hope to have the system convert the variables to the vbulletin variables for the configuration and phrasing and then it should be a no brainer...

For a teaser (still very very pre alpha stage):

http://www.astralorder.com/forums/roster.php

Fully integrated on the membeerlist page with exception to a few of the sorting options atm. I'm working on those. If you get a page with only the menu and the GMOTD then that page has not yet been completed...

The system is integrated with vB's templating and phrasing so it fits right into whatever style you have running on your board currently without need of adjustment.

Just another post saying I'm watching and looking forward to this! Keep up the good work!

Great work so far, can't wait to see the finnished product.

Just another quick update. I've figured out my hang up on the sorting on the memberlist backend so now that's been dealt with and working at full (until I find another bug lol).

I've begun work on the keys and the easier pages for now and am leaving the guild bank for dead last as that looks to be the most trouble filled for the page ports at this time.

Ok I am very fluent in vbulletin and wish to see this finished. If I can help just to get this moving faster so that all of us in need of this port can get it then I offer my assistance.

Cheers
Grag
