Well, I tried it with a simple table and nothing got inserted. So there must be something more to this.

Check the $errors array to see if there where any problems.

Alternativly, PM me your datamanager PHP file, and the PHP your using to test it, and I'll take a look.

The code above will (well, works here) work without changes though :)

Thanks,
Alan.

Alan,

Shouldn't

PHP Code:


		
			
'username' => array(TYPE_STR, REQ_YES, VF_METHOD),

be:

PHP Code:


		
			
'username' => array(TYPE_STR, REQ_YES),

As verify_username does not exist in the base class. (It does in class_dm_user.php)

That'll teach me to base my example of the User DM :D

So with the help of this tuitorial, I could create a data manager for creating User Notes about members, correct?

Correct.

Thanks,
Alan.

THis was a great tutorial... and I am able to use it for inserting records... But what about the UDPATE function?

Can you spell out how the UPDATE function works when using a Custom DataManager?

I am not sure how it works and how it gets the current record...

I'd like to also know when DM's should be used.... vs a simple INSERT statement within the file...

thanx

$example->condition = "exampleid = 1";
$example->set('userid', 1);
$example->set('username', 'harmor19');
$example->set('exampletext', 'Testing');
$example->save();

If I'm right it should update the table where exampleid is equal to "1".

So i have written two custom datamanagers, one saves/updates the main info, while I use the other (within a loop) to update the related records.

I have to call the database from within each of the DMs to update some other tables with related info as well, and while looking at vbulletin's existing datamanagers, i see more than one method of calling the database, for example:

Within class_dm_threadpost some calls to thge database are made like this:

Code:

$this->dbobject->query_write

However within class_dm_infraction, calls are made like this:

Code:

$this->registry->db->query_write

What I want to know, is why is one method used in one instance, and another in another? I think both acheive exactly the same results but why are jelsoft using different methods to call the database?

All times are GMT. The time now is 05:04 AM.
