View Full Version : private messages backup hack
Cano2
04-07-2002, 10:00 PM
This hack allows users to backup their private messages to a local file.
I know that there exists allready a very similar hack (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?s=&threadid=15859&perpage=15&display=&pagenumber=1 ) but it contains a serious bug, which allows every users to read everybodys private messages (details see link).
Aditionally this hack works with templates and has some enhanced functionality.
This hack is succesfully tested with a fresh install of vBulletin 2.2.4
I post it here, not as a full release, because of the unclear situation (im new to this board...).
@mods Please excuse me, and move this thread, if you think it's located better elsewhere

Works well! I uninstalled the download PM hack, and changed to your.
Thanks!

Still haven't tested it but looks promising. :) Will probably install this one here later.
You know what would be ever "awesomer"? If you could download AND upload your PM's. :D Just a thought tho.

nice. added. ;)
demo on cano2's board.. ;)

@FireFly:
I thought about that too.. It's not trivial, because the format of the messages can be changed via template, but it's a nice challenge and not too difficult...
An other good idea is to add a new status symbol for PMs wich indicates, which messages are allready backed up. This prevents people from deleting messages by accident. (thx @ lou for this suggestion)
I will add these features, if i have the time..

Problem
getting a parse error on this line
eval("dooutput(\"".gettemplate("privbackup")."\");"); //and run everything through the template
Cano2
04-12-2002, 01:17 PM
hm.. this line of code itself is syntacally correct...
Paste the exact error message, the 2-3 lines of code before this line and the code in the privbackup_header template please! Does the errmsg say, the error occured in "eval()'d code"???
Erwin
04-12-2002, 02:08 PM
Working fine for me with no errors.

Admin
04-12-2002, 04:14 PM
The error is not in that line but in the code it's trying to evaluate (i.e the template).
Cano2
04-15-2002, 03:25 PM
right.. the error is probably in the privbackup_header template (witch has to be valid phpcode)

"Added a new status symbol for PMs wich indicates, which messages are allready backed up."
good work.. but can you add different graphics? (forward&save, replay&save)? this would be very useful...
Cano2
04-15-2002, 04:51 PM
For those who are updating from the previous version:
********************
open private.php
********************
search for:
eval(gettemplate("privbackup_header",0));
eval("dooutput(\"".gettemplate("privbackup")."\");"); //and run everything through the template
********************
after it insert:
//set status to "backed up"
$DB_site->query("UPDATE privatemessage SET messageread=4 WHERE $cond");
********************
search for:
eval(stripslashes(gettemplate("privbackup_header"));
********************
replace with:
eval(gettemplate("privbackup_header",0));
********************
download the new hack, and move pmbackedup.gif to /images
@lou thx.. to add the support for more icons is not a problem, but to create the icons ( 16x16 ist not much space ...). I'll do my best
lates Cano2
Erwin
04-15-2002, 07:54 PM
Also, when updating from the previous version, make these changes too:
*********************************
search for:
case 3: // forwarded message
$privatemessage[folder] = "{imagesfolder}/pmforwarded.gif";
break;
*********************************
right after it insert:
case 4: //backed up message
$privatemessage[folder] = "{imagesfolder}/pmbackedup.gif";
break;

Hi Cano2
I have just installed this great hack on my Board and it seems to work fine. I have just one little question:
I'm working with Mac OS X 10.1.3 and after I download my pm's, I find a file called "private.php" on my desktop, which contains the private messages. But before it can opened in a Browser, I must change the File-Extension every time manualy to "private.html". Is there a way to have the correct Extension (.html) after Download by default?
Cano2
04-16-2002, 05:42 PM
hm. I doesn't have a mac, so I can't test it, but i'm sure its because of the headers in the "privbackup_header".. although the behaviour for the "Content-Disposition" header is clearly defined in the http-rfc, every browser behaves different. These headers were the best I found, but I will search again for a way to tweak these headers.
btw: which browser(s) are you using?
Cano2
r.cakir
04-16-2002, 06:15 PM
First, thanks for your reply. I use OmniWeb 4.1 (a Mac OS X only Browser) and MS Internet Explorer 5.1.3 for Mac OS X.
Let me know, if you find a solution.

One Problem, the text "Save as a HTML File" is not shown anywhere...
Cano2
04-18-2002, 04:11 PM
I'm not sure if I understand your problem...
Did you used the optional "privbackup_header" template and now wondering about that message in the "privbackup" template?? It is included in the backup file and thus senseless (you can remove that messe form the template).
Its thought to be used, when you don't use the "privbackup_header" template then a simple html page containig the messaged shows up in the browser, and this message tells the user, what to do...
I think I schould correct the hacking instructions to make that more clear. thx

I just want to say thanks for this hack. I have representatives of financial firms on my site who must comply with regulations that require them to keep a record of all correspondence with their clients, even private messages. This hack enabled them to do that. Thanks again!

hi,
does it work with 2.2.5 release? :)
VirtueTech
05-16-2002, 03:32 PM
One thing is that it does not change the icon in 2.2.5 after you back it up. I have looked through the code and it does not change the field "messageread" in the privatemessage table to "4" for case 4.
Any ideas?
I tried adding this to the while statement you added to private.php:
$DB_site->query("UPDATE privatemessage SET messageread=4 WHERE privatemessageid=".intval($prevmessageid));

Hi,
I've a problem. I succefully install this hack on my backup-board but when I tried to install the same hack on my public vbulletin the page to download didn't work.
It trie to download named "private.php". The header's lines didn't work... why?
Note: in my backup-board i've only one template; in my "public" vbulletin i've 5 template...
i have the same problem as saibal

Also, is there any way to have the messages save like they are written? Like using the same formatting. I saved a message tonight that had some quotes listed in it by numbers (1..2...3, etc) and the writing when it was saved was all run together in one paragrah.
Great hack, by the way! Uninstalled the buggy one and installed this one. :)
Boofo
05-26-2002, 09:36 AM
Go to Post #15 in this thread and do the first find and replace step and the icon will appear after you have backed up the messages. :)

Must say, this is an awsome hack.
Question (more of a request though): In the genereated HTML page, the PM's shown are in any order, so is there any way to show them in a more date/time oriented approach?
Boofo
06-08-2002, 11:29 AM
Cano2,
Are you still supporting this hack? I'm still having a problem with the message format on saved messages.
Cano2
06-09-2002, 11:12 AM
Of course im still supporting it.. Sry, I just have been away for a month, i will try to help you as soon as possible.
@Angelus1753 :
Yes it is possible and allready implemented in the next big release (hope it doesn't much time for me anymore to finish it).
Until then:
Replace
$msgs= $DB_site->query("SELECT
privatemessage.*,
IF(ISNULL(touser.username),'[Deleted User]',touser.username) AS tousername,
IF(ISNULL(fromuser.username),'[Deleted User]',fromuser.username) AS fromusername
FROM privatemessage
LEFT JOIN user AS touser ON (touser.userid=privatemessage.touserid)
LEFT JOIN user AS fromuser ON (fromuser.userid=privatemessage.fromuserid)
WHERE $cond ORDER BY folderid");
with
$msgs= $DB_site->query("SELECT
privatemessage.*,
IF(ISNULL(touser.username),'[Deleted User]',touser.username) AS tousername,
IF(ISNULL(fromuser.username),'[Deleted User]',fromuser.username) AS fromusername
FROM privatemessage
LEFT JOIN user AS touser ON (touser.userid=privatemessage.touserid)
LEFT JOIN user AS fromuser ON (fromuser.userid=privatemessage.fromuserid)
WHERE $cond ORDER BY folderid,dateline ");

@Boofoo:
There are two ways, it depends on what you want:
first find
eval("\$messages .= \"".gettemplate("privbackup_message")."\";");
right before it insert
$message[message]=nl2br($message[message]);
or
$message[message]=pmcodeparse($message[message],0,$allowsmilies);
With the first one, the Linebreaks would show up correctly, the second one shows the message as it would be shown in the board (with smillies, lists, ... ) (but the paths to images are relative, so you wont ?see the smilies, if you save it to disk)
Hope that helps you
Maybe I find a way to include the first one in the next release...

Cano2
06-09-2002, 02:28 PM
Can you tell me plz what exactly happens after you click "backup" (and with witch Browserversion/OS of course)? Does the Download window popup, or is the page shown in the Browser? Which name has the file to download, if it shows up?
Boofo
06-09-2002, 06:33 PM
Thank you very much. You are a gentleman and a scholar. :)
The only question I have now is which way is the better one to go? The first one only saves the smilie code, too (i.e. :eek:) And is there a way to have it save to the date in the filename instead of saying today? That way it won't overwrite any backups and you will know on which date you made the last backup.
Thanks for the quick fix. :)

thanks for the attention cano2 :)
i have two forums: one is to test the hacks and the other is "public". the only difference between these two forums is that the public forum has 4 template while the test forum has only one.
when i installed your hack on test forum it works good but when i install it on public forum it doesn't work.
it try to download a page named "private.php".
this page contains the right html code with all messages but the name adn the extension of the file is wrong (it may be like "some_date.html" no?) :)
p.s.
excuse me for me bad english :)
Boofo
06-10-2002, 12:15 AM
Cano2,
I'm still curious as to what "von" means. :) You have it in the code for "at" or "von".
Boofo
06-10-2002, 01:35 AM
I just found a possible bug here. If someone sends you a message with the and tags in it, if messes eveything up in the message instead of just doing the code itself. I don't know about PHP yet but I was sent some code for a message box and it tried to draw it in the message and had line breaks and all sorts of screen garbage in the saved message. Just though you should know. :)

Cano2
06-16-2002, 01:10 PM
@saibal: That sounds strange. Did you opened it with the same Browser ('cause browsers behave very different)? Are the pnbackup_header templates identical? I can't mind an other reason for that. If you want, you can contact me via pm or email, and I will help you tracking down the problem.
@Boofo:
"von" just means "from"
What you have found is a general problem I'm fighting with: The name "backup" normally implies that all relevant information is saved, and that it can be restored (which will be possible in the next release). vB does some extra processing to make the pm's look pretty. Of course you want the backup looking pretty too, but much of this processing can't be reversed, so restoring ain't possible anymore.
On the other hand, this hack is designed to be flexible and fit everybody's needs. For that reason it's template based, and you can chose wich filetype the backup should be. But how the messages have to be processed so that they look pretty depends heavily on that filetype. HTML ist of course the most popular filetype, so I can include as switch in the admincp which enables processing for html output (at least that which can be reversed), but I haven't found a real good solution for that yet (suggestions are allways welcome ;) ).
Cano2
Boofo
06-16-2002, 05:23 PM
Cano2,
Please see post #41 above again. I edited it so the tags I was trying to show you show up now. Would there be a way to do the same thing during backup so it doesn't show the messes when using those tags? Maybe using the Disable vbcode hack that Firefly wrote? If there was a way to parse that before saving, then that would at least keep it from getting messed up in the backup process. Just a thought (although not a very good one, I'm afraid). :)

Is there a way to have it so when you checkmark the All Messages box that it will show the checkmarks in the individual messages checkmark box? And also have it for use on the other options at the bottom of the page there next to the Backup button?

suggestion for your next release: maybe have 2 backup icons, one for when the message was also replied to and one for when it wasn't. If you get really ambitious you could have one for forward too. Either way this is a super great hack and I will continue to use it *nod*
Hi I have only one problem with this hack, it displays the html page with all the messages on it as it's supposed to do, but at the top, I get a parse error:
Parse error: parse error, unexpected $ in C:\DDVBBoard\upload\private.php(188) : eval()'d code on line 4
This is using vB version 2.2.6 on a Windows 2000 server.
Any suggestions?

Man, I thought I was loosing my mind, I installed it per the instructions, but then the icon wasn't showing up, so I read through the whole thread and followed adding those two lines of code to update the icon.
Then I couldn't get the window to popup no matter what I did... It would download it, but not let me save anywhere... I finally found out what the bug was...
Edit the "privbackup_header" header and change the line from:
header("Content-disposition: filename=pnbackup_$date.html");
To:
header("Content-disposition: attachment; filename=pnbackup_$date.html");
Note the inclusion of "attachment;", that fixed my problem and the window pops up to save! :)

Very nice hack !
I also [x]installed. No Problems with 2.3.0
Just in the original installing instructions the part with the backuped Icon is missing. =>
********************
open private.php
********************
search for:
eval(gettemplate("privbackup_header",0));
eval("dooutput(\"".gettemplate("privbackup")."\");"); //and run everything through the template
********************
after it insert:
//set status to "backed up"
$DB_site->query("UPDATE privatemessage SET messageread=4 WHERE $cond");

$thisfolder = split("\|\|\|", $val);
$foldernames[($thisfolder[0]+1)] = $thisfolder[1];
} --------> this is line151
}
//get correct folder name
if ($message["folderid"]=="0") {
$foldername = $inboxname;
I am on a Mac, OS 10 Jaguar, running 2.3 VBulletin
The first time I "backed up" I had quite a few messages, but I don't know where they were downloaded to.
I tried backing up again, but that message didn't get deleted when I checked. Do I have to manually delete them?
Thanks for the help.

Works great on 2.3.4! Unless you have a heavily hacked forum, the install instructions follow to a "T". No issues what so ever.
Thanks for a GREAT addition to my forum!

Hi Cano2,
I installed the optional feature, but it doesn't work correctly, it always downloads a file called "private.php" (look at the attachment).
I use Windows 2000 and MS Internet Explorer 5.5
what's wrong and how can I get this working ?
thanks,

Same for me.
It works fine in Mozilla. There it will save with the correct name, pnbackup_13-02-2004.html.
But if I click on the backup button from IE under XP, it just want to save it as "private" (with the correct contents, I might add, just the wrong filename).
Any fix for this?
Edit: Just to make a follow up on my own post. If you edit the template "privbackup_header" and change the following:
header("Content-type: unknown/unknown");
to:
header("Content-type: text/html");
IE will at least create the correct extension to the file. Otherwise you have to do it yourself.
Might this have something to do with this bug? http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=KB;EN-US;Q279667

Installed it on 2.3.4 and it works fine except for one thing. I have installed the optional privbackup_header template but I still don't get an actual download option, I just get sent to the html page with the PM's listed on it and instructions to save it.
I need something a little more dummy proof for my users, so I need the actual save box to come up automatically. Any ideas?

Ok, weird. I installed it on one forum and got what I posted before. I installed it on the second forum (Identical instilation) and it works as it should, popping up the "Save as" box when you hit backup.

Great Work. THX
For resolv this problem:
Parse error: parse error in /home/glassmav/public_html/forum/private.php(151) : eval()'d code on line 1
You must change this command:
eval(gettemplate("privbackup_header",0));
to:
eval(gettemplate("privbackup_header",0,0));
