Easy question - vbphrases dont' work

[Dionysis]

I'm creating a new file and wondering why Vbphrases arn't working while almost all other variables are...

the file is simply:


chdir('/blah/vbulletin');
require_once('./global.php');
require_once('./includes/adminfunctions_template.php');

chdir('/blah/vbulletin/admincp');
require_once('./global.php');


//back end importing done, start grabbing variables and do the script


echo $vbphrase['expand_all_template_groups'];

which returns nothing for the echo.... any ideas?

Phrases are usually put in a template and then parsed by the php automatically, I don't know if you can do it this way, since I never tried.

[Dionysis]

it should, $vbphrase is just a bigass array. my real problem is more along the lines of this line:

construct_link_code("<b>" . COLLAPSECODE . "</b>", "template.php?$session[sessionurl]do=modify&amp;expandset=$expandset&amp;section=$sectionarr ay[sectionid]", 0, $vbphrase['collapse_all_template_groups']).

and many others in the admincp page i'm trying to create.

First of all you shouldn't use both the normal global.php and the adminc/global.php. Only the admin should be enough.

you might need to add the following after all included scripts:
global $vbphrase;

[Dionysis]

I need to include both global.php's because of the functions i'm running through the script ^_^.

Also, since both are included I removed the "global $vbphrase;" since $vbphrase = init_lang(); is already included in one of the global.php's.

Also, i've tried a "global $vbphrase;" and that still didn't work. In any matter, the script i posted originally should work (i think). still not sure of the problem, why vbphrase isn't working.

[Marco van Herwaarden]

In which phrasegroup is the phrase you are trying to use? Not all groups are loaded by default.

[Dionysis]

hrm. good question. which phrasegroup is used in the adminCP?

[Marco van Herwaarden]

Different ones. Just lookup the phrase you want to use and see which group it belongs to.

[Dionysis]

ok where do i do that, for example this phrase "$vbphrase['all_template_groups']"
how do i load that into my script?

[Dionysis]

bueler bueler?

2. Add the following phrase to phrasegroup Forum-Related Phrases
varname: prune_after

Sorry, Could you explain exactly what to do here? I am new to VB and dont have a clue where to start on this step.


Wooops Wrong area!
