How to access $template_hook[postbit_userinfo_left] ?

[0ptima]

The $template_hook[postbit_userinfo_left] hook in the postbit_legacy seems like a good place to add some member badges, but how do you use it?

I went to "Add new plugin", and under the "Hook Location", I dont see this hook. The only postbit hooks I see are:
postbit_dispaly_start
postbit_dispaly_complete
postbit_attachement
postbit_imicons

I just upgraded from 3.6.4 -> 3.6.8

You do it using plugins. Check the articles section for a tutorial on template hooks

Thanks, I finally figured out how to get the template to execute. Now I having problems with the following code


$template_hook[postbit_userinfo_right_after_posts] .= '
<if condition="$post['userid']"><div>iTrader: (<b><a href="itrader.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$post[userid]">$post[itrader_total]</a></b>)</div></if> ';


This gives me a parse error.

Take out the apostrophes in $post['userid']

i.e. $post[userid] :p

[EnIgMa1234]

Apostrophes in plugins
None in templates ;)

Try changing
$post[itrader_total]

To

$post['itrader_total']

[Opserty]

Read his code again :p

Did you miss the syntax highlighting as well? hehe

[EnIgMa1234]

Oh yea my bad :p

Still does not work.. even after I removed all the quotes...

[EnIgMa1234]

So you have
$template_hook['postbit_userinfo_right_after_posts'] .= '
<if condition="$post[userid]"><div>iTrader: (<b><a href="itrader.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$post[userid]">$post[itrader_total]</a></b>)</div></if> ';

So you have
$template_hook['postbit_userinfo_right_after_posts'] .= '
<if condition="$post[userid]"><div>iTrader: (<b><a href="itrader.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$post[userid]">$post[itrader_total]</a></b>)</div></if> ';


That does not work either...

Do it under the hook "Parse Templates", and use eval() codes.

I believe this is the structure:

eval("$template_hook['userinfo_postbit_left'] .= '" . fetch_template('template name') . "':");

That should do the trick. Just add your code into a template. Templates are the best and easiest way to go within template hooks.

What error are you getting now? (Copy and Paste it)

Or is just not showing up?

[0ptima]

This is my plugin code


eval("$template_hook['postbit_userinfo_right_after_posts'] .= '" . fetch_template('CustomPostbit') . "':");


The hook location is parse_templates

I have the following in my custom template

<if condition="$post[userid]"><div>iTrader: (<b><a href="itrader.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$post[userid]">$post[itrader_total]</a></b>)</div></if>


I get the following error:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_ENCAPSED_AND_WHITESPACE, expecting T_STRING or T_VARIABLE or T_NUM_STRING in /home/website/public_html/forums/global.php(554) : eval()'d code on line 7

Thanks.

No wonder...you have a colon before the final speech mark. Change it to a semi-colon and it should work. :)

Here:
eval("$template_hook['postbit_userinfo_right_after_posts'] .= '" . fetch_template('CustomPostbit') . "';");

[0ptima]

Even with the change, I still get the error. Are the quotes in the right place?

[Opserty]

First try this:
eval('$template_hook[postbit_userinfo_right_after_posts] .= "' . fetch_template('CustomPostbit') . '";');
If still not try this:
eval('$template_hook[\'postbit_userinfo_right_after_posts\'] .= "' . fetch_template('CustomPostbit') . '";');
Finally are you running any other plugins? :p

If things don't start working trial and error is the way to go haha.
