Seleleth provided the forum with a great mod for WoW Roster that put a Armory link before each guild members name, check it out here. I wanted to take that 1 step forward and just make each members name a direct link to their Armory page. You do lose a little info compared to the user uploaded data, like for example a members known crafting recipe, but from my experience most members are too lazy or just don't care enough to update their info, so this is a great way to take care of that.

NOTE: This was tested and works on version 1.7.3 but my work on any 1.7.x version.

NOTE: Original credit goes to Seleleth for creating the Armory link inside of Roster

Install:

1) Open memberdetails.php

2) Go to line 442, and you should see the following code:

Code: Select all

        if ( $row['server'] )
        {
            return $tooltip.'<a href="char.php?name='.$row['name'].'&amp;server='.$row['server'].'">'.$row['name'].'</a></div>';
        }
        else
        {
            return $tooltip.$row['name'].'</div>';
        }
    }
    else
    {
        if ( $row['server'] )
        {
            return '<a href="char.php?name='.$row['name'].'&amp;server='.$row['server'].'">'.$row['name'].'</a>';
        }
        else
        {
            return $row['name'];
        }
    }
} 

Replace that code with:
Note: Replace www.wowarmory.com with eu.wowarmory.com for European Servers

Code: Select all

        return $tooltip.'<a href="http://www.wowarmory.com/character-sheet.xml?r='.$roster_conf['server_name'].'&amp;n='.$row['name'].'" target="_blank">'.$row['name'].'</a></div>';
    }
    else
    {
        return '<a href="http://www.wowarmory.com/character-sheet.xml?r='.$roster_conf['server_name'].'&amp;n='.$row['name'].'" target="_blank">'.$row['name'].'</a>';
    }
} 

See it working HERE

Is this the best way to do it? Probably not, but it does work. But for those of you who are sick of lazy members who don't update their info, this is a good fix.

MOD EDIT: Simplified the replacement code since you don't need to check for server when making links to the armory
Also added a note about the EU armory

This is an excellent mod! Also, just to let you know, a few of us originally wrote this mod a month before Seleleth HERE. We pretty much found there are a few different ways to have it, with the name as a link, with a link infront of the name, and both. I recommend looking through all the threads on this mod to find the one that suits your guild best!

Thanks TurnX and Seleleth for your continued work on this mod and to the others that also pioneered this mod.
