* Is it possible to show a thumbail of the user's avatar next to the text field. Just like on facebook?

* Can I have the friend feed at index.php instead of memberlist.php

* And, how hard would it be to code, so that it also shows if your friend has become friend with andother user, or if a friend has uploaded a picture in ex. Nick vergessen's phpBB Gallery Mod?

ex:

Dave uploaded 2 new pictures in his presonal gallery

Thanks you so much for this great mod! I highly appeciate your work with it :D

EDIT: Installed it now and it works perfect!

I like a lot of your ideas. I will work with some of these and see what I can do. The problem with adding support for other mods is that not everyone has those mods. I can add support perhaps in a contrib folder. However, avatars are standard for PHPBB so I can maybe start with that idea.
thanks a bunch for all the ideas.

But thanks for posting and making it. :)
yes I agree, please if you can, any nice extensions you make please send me and I will package it up and add it to the mod an release a new version.

Also, trickoffs idea of memberA is now friends with memberB is nice. gallery comments and uploads. also some people have plaitnum2007s status update mod.

I like where this is going.

yeah this mod has sooooooooo much potential. It could literally be the mod that has all the updates for users to see what their friends are up to.

For example if I was your only forum friend your recent activity list might look like.....

superj707 posted in thread: "xyz"
superj707 posted blog: "xyz"
superj707 change avatar: "pic"
superj707changed status: "xyz"
superj707 is now friends with: "dave"
superj707 got the high score in arcade game: "frogger"
superj707 upload new images to his gallery: "link"
superj707 commented on gregs profile: "link"
superj707 gave karma to: "kelly" for post "link"
superj707 donated 45 points to: "dave"


ETC ETC ETC .. you get the idea.. there is no end to what you could see in these recent activity feeds.
The potential is just HUUUUUUUUGE ... unfortunately I am not entirely sure how to make all of these things happen. I will keep working on it.

Epic! I thought this would be impossible to achive on phpBB.
Although I think it would be good to have on the index.php page since it's the first page you see when visiting the board.

quick update:

so far I have separate queries that check recent friend activity for Exreactions blog mod and Plaitnum2007s User Status mod. However, integrating these using LEFT JOINS into one useful query is the hard part. I need to do that so I can run one block in the template file. As is these are all individual blocks.

I can easily make tons of queries that are useful for this. Sadly right now I have no idea how to join them all together.


EDIT: now I have written a query that checks nick vergessens gallery mod for recent friend updates. even adds a small thumb nail to the recent friends activity list.

Gotta agree, this is a great mod. One of the admins on my site suggested it should be called "Friends Stalking Mod" XD . Keep up the great work and thanks :)

Well um, sort of.
I have a bunch of modules broke into separate categories. to join them all into one list I think I need to collect data from each query then drop it all into a new array.. then from that new array I can run a for loop and make my template variables from that. This would be a good way to provide template variables to have all the different kinds of recent activity combined into one list.

For now I am getting the mod up on my site. I will give a link for demo purposes when I get it up. but it will be still in separate categories. I am not really sure how to implement all my changes and updates into a version that is compatible enough to release here. ... it's really customized for my site.

It's 4 modules right now each using jquery for show or hide. there is status, forum, blog, and gallery updates in the list. When looking at own profile .. when looking at another users profile you get only that users updates not their friends. (unless you are a mod then you can see users friends updates)


to add the john is now friends with dave idea into the list.... I need to add a date column into the zebra table.. then have it update the date each time a new friend or foe is made. Then we can have the recent activity feed drop this info in the list rather easily.


I was also thinking about ajaxing the whole thing. my friend got a very loose ajax feed working on a test site but it was hard coded only for 1 user.
