Latest Blog in Postbit Using Carp for vBulletin 4.x
![]() Developer Last Online: Feb 2021 ![]() ![]() ![]()
![]() This is an update for nevetS' mod for 3.5 at http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?t=91781 and gotlinks' update for 3.6 at http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?t=163718 to make it work in 4.x.
If you already have Carp Free or Carp LE or Carp Evolution, great. If not, you'll have to download a copy from http://carp.docs.geckotribe.com/download.php (Carp Free is now renamed Carp LE). If you need to install Carp first, golinks has some instructions at http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?t=163718 and there are of course more detailed instructions at http://carp.docs.geckotribe.com/ Now, modify your vBulletin installation. 1. Add three custom profile fields - in my setup, they are as follows, but make a note of the field# for later in case yours are different:
2. Create a new plugin called Carp Configuration and attach it to hook location: global_bootstrap_init_start
3. Create another plugin called Get Users Blog Entry and attach this to hook location: postbit_display_start
4. Edit postbit (and/or legacy): Find:
Add after:
Remember to change field6 and field8 to correspond to the numbers of the custom fields for your forum. For postbit_legacy, use this code instead (thanks to 993ti who posted this here:

Hello,
When using Legacy (Vertical) Postbit Template the blog feed will not show, any way around this? No members have liked this post.

2. Check that you have the right field# in the additional code. That said, I'm not sure how well suited this is for postbit legacy forums... at best, the blog post title is going to have to wrap condierably. I've never really liked and never used the postbit legacy format so I can't tell you exactly how to modify the display. You may need to play with it a bit. Can you post a screenshot of (1) what the legacy display looks like now and (2) the code in your legacy postbit?

Is this possible to grab blogs made in the vb-blog stuff on the suite - I only want members most recent blogs from there to show in the postbit.

I've never tried it but you should be able to use any valid RSS feed.
