Testing steam integration

Discussion in 'General Discussion' started by szSteam_76561198051919925, Dec 22, 2011.

  1. bump, testing something.

    I was hoping I could accomplish member name linking using just plugins, but looks like I have to do some vB source code modification now :\

    - Steam Authentication - Done!
    - Steam profile linking - done!
    - Admin commands for steam linked profile - done (admins: you can edit the user's profile just as you would with any other profile)

    Todo:
    - More username fixing at profile, usercp, header, etc
    - Points Reloaded integration :)

    It doesn't seem like it works if your profile is private/friends only D:

    It'll work.

    Edit-- Looks like I have to do another vB source code modification and mod fetch_musername();

    Also, I had to clear the lukesteam table, so all posts made by steam-login users now say "Guest"

    Just testing

    Edit: Awww can't delete my own posts? I love how it automatically displays your avatar, looks a little weird with the image showing in the steam title too though.

    I'll modify the program later so that it will not render the avatar in the title. Thanks for reporting the delete post problem. I'll look into it.

    I know that it still says "Last post by szSteam_xxxxxxxxx" in the What's New and member profile and such. I will need to hack the fetch_musername() function in vBulletin to fix all those instances.

    As of right now, do NOT change your password that my mod assigns you, or steam auth will fail and you won't be able to log back on :P It's a bug I still have to fix.

    Thanks!

    I don't know if this has been mentioned or not but when i login using the steam account, i don't have access to the admin section.

    That's because your account has not been linked yet ;)
     
  14. I'm replying to myself now with admin powers ;) So far so good

    Alright, RaisedInHell, I added admin powers to your steam account. Note, however, that you do not know your password to access the Admin CP. This is because the mod intentionally hides your steam details from the eyes of every admin. However, you will have access to all the admin commands in the forum (just not the admin cp as of yet). You will not be able to log in to the admin cp with your steam password-- my mod's assigned password is separate and is not shared. If you fuck up by accidentally changing your steam-linked password via the admin cp, that steam-linked account is good as gone because none of us will be able to recover the account :P I would then just reset your details and have you re-link your steam account to the forum account.

    Note-- regular users will never have to worry about this (just admins).

    "Just admins" and im already confused lol

    What luke meant was .. Since normal users will not have access to admin cp, they are not able to change the password to their steam account via admin cp but if admins do it then their account will have to be reset because there is no password recovery option for this for security reasons i guess.

    Luke, is it possible to transfer things like "join date and posts" from our old accounts to this one or not? Also, our old names had different colours representing who they are or what access they have.. e.g. Blue - Trials, Green - Admins , Yellow/Red - Roots. Will that be implemented in the final release or will everyone have white font names?
     
  19. I've already provided that feature. Just keep the primary usergroup as Luke_Steam and make the display usergroup as Administrator. :) My account importer will import all your posts and join date and such, so not to worry.
     
  20. Hello Luke!
    I got Donor on my Steam account already but I cannot see the Donor section on the forums (on my normal account I can still see it) I don't know if the problem is general or it's just me but I just post to let u know.

    Also I coulnd't see the Who's Online box on the bottom but now i see that was fixed somehow =D

    Apart from that, I still have problems with the Android App =P

    EDIT:
    I just noticed on my post that my avatar belongs to my forum account because the avatar of my steam account (this one) is a "WTF Panda" (don't ask). Either way, just not demanding anything. Just to let u know =D
