vbPluginOrder
 

Keywords: plugin, order, hook

Description:
A simple but potentially very useful tool that allows you to set the order of execution for plugins within the same hook.

Features:

• Fully Phrased.
• Set the order of plugin execution within the same hook.

Install

1. Download the vbPluginOrder_1.2.zip file.
2. Unzip and upload the files in the upload directory to your forum root.
3. Import the product file in your admincp.
4. Set the order for your plugins if needed and desired.

Notes:
If you have Hellcat's real time page compressor installed it must be set as the first plugin in its hook after you activate plugin order.

Version 1.2

• Fixed bug causing plugin order not to run on some systems because of cookie settings

Version 1.1

• Fixed nasty sql bug where I forgot to use TABLE_PREFIX for one join. Causes a problem if you have a table prefix (obviously) :)

Interesting, I will be taking a look at this later. :)

:) helo

plugin order...? does that mean this hack will set the order(no 1,2,3.....) as per my desire?

Ummm whats the benifit of using this hack ?

thnx

You can make one plugin run before another in the same hook. You probably won't need it until you really need it - then you'll be glad I wrote it :)

Good work. This could be useful since I'm having way too many plugins! :)

Help me, please!

Oh no, my forum is down. What can I do? Its urgent! Thanks for your help.

First, disable the product so your forum isn't down.

It sounds like the table didn't get created for some reason when you installed. Can you look at the database and verify if the table 'pluginorder' exists?

Cool, thanks for your reply.

In my database trillian_forum exists the table trillian_pluginorder

I've disabled the product and the plugin, but nothing has changed. :(

You've disabled the product and you're still getting an error? Have you tried uninstalling it?

New Error:

I don't come into the AdminCP to uninstall it, only the database is my my tool to work. The table plugin doesn't exist, thats correct because the correct name of the table is trillian_plugin at database trillian_forum.

Your Product creates the table TABLE_PREFIX . "pluginorder and the problem the problem is with the path. Can it helps disabeling all products and plugins or adapt the path in your product/plugin?

Ah yes. That's a nasty bug. I'll fix and upload right away. Thanks.

Thank you, thank you, thank you. :) I hope that then everything is well. ;)

You're welcome. Updated and ready for download again. Let me know if it solves the problem please :)

Hmm...

Make sure you click 'allow overwrite', or better yet uninstall before you install the new one.

How can I install it with MySQL? Uninstallation is done by cleaning.

You don't have admincp access?

No :(, thats my problem. Look at forum.trillian-deutsch.de :confused:

Your help is wonderful. :cool:

why there still is the error, although I deleted your plugin?

If you remove the plugin from the plugin table, and you remove the plugin cache from the datastore table, you should have access to your admin cp again. That is, if my plugin is the problem anyway.

Oh yeah, very nice. Cool, I love you. ;) Great tip and now I'm really happy. :D

Glad it worked. Now did the re-install work, or are you afraid to try now? LOL

Navbar in AdminCP is damaged. And Shoutbox on index lost.

Goto your plugin manager in the admincp, don't change anything, but just click on 'save active status'. That should rebuild the plugin datastore.

I've in my AdminCP no navbar and don't know the directlink to do it. In ModCP the navigation is ok. Argh, I've done, the navibar is there - but there is only the profilefields in postbit. :(

To many things deletet yesterday in the datastore-Database?!? :(

Maybe. The url is yourdomain/admincp/plugin.php?do=modify

So is it, thx. Menu is very empty now... :-\

What menu?

My Menu (Navigationsbar) in AdminCP, there is now only the field for profilefields in postbits.

What exactly did you delete from the datastore?

In datastore

1. products - last line
2. pluginlist - many lines on the end
3. pluginlistadmin - many lines on the end

In plugins

Delete Table pluginorder

Okay. First, before doing anything else, backup your database. Then, try setting pluginlist and pluginlistadmin to blank, instead of editing them, and then go to the plugin page in admincp and click "update active" like before.

I cleaned the two things, but nothing has changed yet.

My last backup is from 2006-03-29 22-28... I've asked my webhoster for backup - waiting, waiting, waiting. The rest of my forum is ok.

One little bug, so much trouble... sorry mate.

Do you have any idea to activate the full menu? Original files to admincp changed nothing.

One bug, everything broken . :( :( :(

Well, it's not the files then, it's the database. Did you get the database restored?

Yeah, all is ok now! :banana:

I've started a new test forum, installed the products in the same order and copied the data from pluginlist and pluginlistadmin to my database. The cache is the bad thing, I think. Well done and thanks for your great work here.

I'll install your product soon as possible. I'm not so afraid. ;) :D

Okay. Let me think. I have a couple of ideas still.

This can be a very useful hack. I click install for future use :)
Is it working ok now?

Thanks
