Hi,

just tested the following code:

PHP Code:


		
			
<?

require('./global.php'); 

require('./includes/functions_newpost.php'); 

$userid = 10;

$forumid = 100;

$foruminfo = fetch_foruminfo($forumid); 

$bbuserinfo = fetch_userinfo($userid); 

$post[title] = 'subject'; 

$post[message] = 'message'; 

$post[poststarttime] = TIMENOW; 

$post[posthash] = md5($post[poststarttime] . $bbuserinfo['userid'] . $bbuserinfo['salt']); 

build_new_post('thread', $foruminfo, array(), 0, $post, $errors); 

?>

works for me with 3.03 without problems ...

is there a form to add the threads you want and create the conditions under which their added?

Sorry for the delay guys, never did release this as an official hack due to the lack of interest, seemed everyone except for me knew how to do this at the time. Man trying this stuff in the early RCs was a pain! Just switched to a newer license that won't expire, so I'll get all of the updates on the thread from now on :)

I'll have to re-read through the thread later (in class atm), but it sounds like at least sabret00the would like a variable system to set up to do this?

I'll have to dig up the custom forms/code I made that used this function. Worked well, but the project went to ASP so I haven't looked at it in a while. Would've stayed in PHP if I knew how to radically customize the board templates.

Would you guys want me to work this up and release it as an "official" hack?

That would be great.

Ok, just re-read everything and looked at my code. Looks like I made the code at the end of page 2 into a function, as well as a function that auto-creates forums.

To release this as a hack, I'd like to put some safety features in it, e.g. some way of making a simple admin CP module for it (NO CLUE), and a way to enter it into group policies so that to have access to it you have to be in a special group. Perhaps it would show up in the User CP if said user is in this secondary group?

So far, these are the requests for it that I have seen:

Quote:

if posts on the forums in XX hours < XX then create thread

Don't quite understand that. Do you mean "If user X posts every y amount of hours then create a thread?

Quote:

A form to add the threads you want and create the conditions under which they are added

What types of conditions would you like, or would you like them to be user editable conditions?

Comments please! :) I'm about to fall asleep, so tomorrow afternoon (EST) I'll post the code as a beta hack.

regarding the last bit, basically you'd have a form with

Code:

THREAD TITLE

  

  FORUM ID THREAD TO BE CREATED FOR

  

  THREAD BODY TEXT

  

  CONDITIONS TO CREATE THREAD; __ POST < __ hours

  

  USERID OF THREAD CREATOR

wouldn't that form in the admincp by the safety measure btw?

what that means is that if theirs less than 100 posts on the forums in the past 5 hours then create a new thread in order to stimulate activity.

Gotcha. Think I can release just the functions as a beta hack, then later work on the form code? I'd really only want to release it formally if I could make an admin module though.

what do you mean by admin module?
