@toucan42: Threads were merged, please don't create multiple threads.

Interestingly I am back at the error:

Quote:

That username is already in use or does not meet the administrator's standards. If you are admintw42 and you have forgotten your password, click here.

However we are further down the code in class_dm_threadpost.php.

the two lines of code:

PHP Code:


		
			
$threaddm->set('postuserid', $userinfo['userid']);
$threaddm->set('postusername', $userinfo['username']);

are erroring out with the message :

Quote:

Fatal error: Field postusername is not defined in $validfields in class vb_datamanager_thread_firstpost in /includes/class_dm.php on line 485

Looking at the documentation at http://members.vbulletin.com/api/ on vb_datamanager_thread_firstpost it says about userid and username:

Quote:

'username'=>array(TYPE_STR,REQ_NO,VF_METHOD),// maps to thread.postusername
'userid'=>array(TYPE_UINT,REQ_NO,VF_METHOD),// maps to thread.postuserid

So should $userinfo for these two assignments be set to something from a different variable representing threadinfo? :confused: I'm so sorry I am striggling with this and appreciate the folks who have been pitching in to help me understand.

ok here is my script currently and still facing the error:

This has been blocking me for a week. I am hoping someone can help me figure out why it isn't creating the new thread. :(

This is how you should do it; of course, leaving this as it is means inviting malicious users to abuse it, but I think you mentioned this was part of a bigger AJAX script. Another suggestion, which I have not implemented here because I do not know exactly what each variable will contain, is to always use vBulletin GPC variable instead than accessing $_GET directly. In fact, while it's true that DataManagers do data validation for you, you may never know when you are going to use the data in some other bits of the code; better safe than sorry, always.

Hello again guys.
I am sorry to revive this thread but I now also learned how to delete a thread.
So now the big question is. How do I undelete it?

PS. I delete threads softly.

PHP Code:


		
			
// initialize datamanager
$threaddm =& datamanager_init('Thread', $vbulletin, ERRTYPE_STANDARD, 'threadpost');

// fetch thread info
$threadinfo = fetch_threadinfo($threadid);

// set data
$threaddm->set_existing($threadinfo);
$threaddm->set('visible', 1);

// save
$threaddm->save();
unset($threaddm);
