vBulletin Programming Wiki

[Cap'n Steve]

I've started a wiki for vBulletin coders (http://www.vbulletinprogramming.com/wiki/). Right now it's limited to PHPDoc information, but I need people to tell me what needs to be cleaned up and of course to improve the information. Please take a look, any feedback from the community is appreciated!

I don't think PHPDoc would be any problem (is already available on vb.com), but be carefull not to include vBulletin code, as that could break your license agreement.

Yes, I already had to change the template, since PHPDocumentor includes highlighted source code with the pages by default :eek:.

If it's to become a useful resource, I feel it would need to quote snippets of actual vB code (fair use/restricted to license holders?) and show other snippets of code as examples on how to do things. Eg. how to use the input cleaner class. How to cache a template with a plugin etc.

That would be a good place for you to start Steve, write/get permission to republish some 'how to' programming articles.

EDIT: In your listings of files, include the hooks (and their line number) found in each file. You might also state what different "do" branches exist in the file. Also, a summary of what the file does would be good.

I don't think any actual vBulletin code is necessary (unless you count function and class names, of course), and I do plan on starting some tutorials if no one wants to copy theirs over.

Good ideas, I hadn't even thought about the hooks.
