MePage Overview
To install member pages (me pages) on a site, only one template is needed mcms_me.php. Every view of the me page is handled by that one template.
Permissions
You can set the default permissions for me page users under the backend site settings. Be aware that any changes made to the default settings would only affect new users added after that point. To change existing user's setting they would need to do that from their me page settings page on the site.
Me Menu
Once the user has logged in they will need to see some options to manager their account and add content. This is done with the me menu.The following getContent will create a typical menu.
<?
getContent(
"member",
"display:summary",
"findid:" . $#,
"restrict:yes",
"show:<p><a href="__profileurl__"><img src="__picthumburl__" width="64" /></a></p>",
"show:<h3><a href="__profileurl__">__fullname__</a></h3>",
"show:<ul>",
"show:<li><a href="__editprofileurl__" title="Edit Profile" class="thickbox">Edit Profile</a></li>",
"show:<li><a href="__messagesurl__">View Messages</a>",
"show: (__newmessagecount__ new)",
"show:</li>",
"show:<li><a href="__blogurl__">View Blog</a></li>",
"show:<li><a href="__friendsurl__">View Friends</a>",
"show: (<a href="__friendrequestsurl__">__friendrequestscount__ pending</a>)",
"show:<li><a href="__galleriesurl__">View Galleries</a>",
"show:</li>",
"show:</ul>",
"nocache"
);
?>
Member Directory
If you want members to be able to search for other members you will need to create a search form or link to the full member directory.
<?
getContent(
"member",
"display:search",
"restrict:yes",
"show:__formopen__",
"show:__searchfield__",
"show: __submitbutton__",
"show:<br />or <a href="__directoryurl__">browse member directory</a>",
"show:__formclose__",
"nocache"
);
?>
In addition, you will need create a mcms_directory.php file (do not need to add via the Template Manager) to display the directory & search results.
<?
if ($_GET['view'] == "directory") {
getContent(
"member",
"display:directory",
"restrict:yes",
"letter:" . $_GET['letter'],
"nav:<div id="letter-directory">__alphabet__</div>",
"show:<div class="person clearfix">",
"show:<p>",
"show:<a href="__profileurl__" class="avatar"><img src="__picthumburl__" /></a>",
"show:<a href="__profileurl__">__fullname__</a>",
"show:</p>",
"show:</div>",
"nocache"
);
}
else if ($_GET['view'] == "searchresults") {
getContent(
"member",
"display:searchresults",
"restrict:yes",
"criteria:" . $_GET['criteria'],
"search:" . $_GET['keywords'],
"show:<div class="person clearfix">",
"show:<p>",
"show:<a href="__profileurl__" class="avatar"><img src="__picthumburl__" /></a>",
"show:<a href="__profileurl__">__fullname__</a>",
"show:</p>",
"show:</div>",
"nocache"
);
}
?>
Default Display
When someone lands on a member's me page, there should be a default set of data that we display about the member like the name and image.
if (strcasecmp($#, $#)) {
getContent(
"member",
"display:summary",
"find:" . $#,
"restrict:yes",
"show:<div id="user-profile">",
"show:<a href="__profileurl__"><img src="__picthumburl__" width="100" /></a>",
"show:<h4><a href="__profileurl__">__fullname__</a></h4>",
"show:<ul>",
"show:<li><a href="__sendmessageurl__">Send Message</a></li>",
"show:<li><a href="__blogurl__">View Blog</a></li>",
"show:<li><a href="__friendsurl__">View Friends</a></li>",
"show:<li><a href="__galleriesurl__">View Galleries</a>",
"show:<li><a href="__requestfriendurl__">Request as a Friend</a></li>",
"show:<li><a href="__removefriendurl__">Remove as Friend</a></li>",
"show:</ul>",
"show:</div>",
"nocache"
);
}
Member Content
For each type of content (blogs, galleries, etc) a separate getContent is needed.
Before the getContents, we need to set a list of system messages and display them when needed.
$SYSMESSAGES = array( 1 => 'Message sent',
2 => 'Message deleted',
3 => 'Friend requested',
4 => 'Friend removed',
5 => 'Friend approved',
6 => 'Friend denied',
7 => 'Blog post added',
8 => 'Blog post edited',
9 => 'Blog post deleted',
10 => 'Profile updated',
11 => 'Password mismatch',
12 => 'Address not found',
13 => 'Gallery added',
14 => 'Gallery edited',
15 => 'Gallery deleted',
16 => 'Gallery image added',
17 => 'Gallery image edited',
18 => 'Gallery image deleted',
19 => 'Gallery image moved up',
20 => 'Gallery image moved down',
21 => 'Gallery limit reached',
22 => 'Gallery image limit reached'
);
if ($sysMessageID = $_GET['sysmsgid']) {
print "<p><strong>$SYSMESSAGES[$sysMessageID]</strong></p>";
}Then the list of getCotents with default display at the end:
if ($_GET['view'] == "messages") {
echo "<h4>Messages</h4>";
