Need Help !reports automatically have a link to the players' HLstatsx

Same for people posting in the admin app threads, claiming that they regulars on the servers someone applying to.
 
Inherent problem is that it's separated between three different parts: "TF2", "TF2 Custom", and "TF Trade"

The same STEAMID can have separate IDs in each one. Also, it can show the same person multiple times if they had different names. Maybe just link to the search page? Honestly, HLStats is a really shitty system.
 
I was thinking of suggesting the same thing, but wasn't sure if it would be possible to be done.

Well it would involve some custom coding. You have to map the server they're on to one of the three sets and then assume the first result coming back is the ID then append the ID to the end of the HLStats URL. This would involve the report plugin to query the HLStats DB. Might just be better as a web service to call.

Shouldn't be too difficult to just stick the SteamID into this link.

For example:

http://www.skial.com/stats/hlstats.php?mode=search&q=STEAM_0:1:27332147&st=uniqueid&game=

Then it would bring up the profiles for all possible profiles.

Well what I'm saying is that there are multiple sections and there's a different ID. We would have to match the right one. Not difficult, but still requires a bit of development.

True, but at least if what I linked to was automatically generated it would be a step closer than where we are now. We'd at least be presented with the user matched by SteamID, even if we have to figure out which game type we're looking at.

I actually already managed to do this by scraping the page. So it's definitely possible in a PHP context. I have no clue about SM plugins though.
