Evaluating a conditional from a variable in the template
 
I have a variable called $pagetext that contains this information:

Code:
<if condition="is_member_of($bbuserinfo, 9)">Member of Group</if>More words ...
I want to have that variable evaluated by a template
Code:
eval('$html .= "' . fetch_template('pagetext') . '";');
and eventually output by another template
Code:
eval('print_output("' . fetch_template('shell') . '");');
When I try to do that, the conditional is simply ignored, ie even if the user is not a member of group 9, the "Member of Group" text still appears.

Any ideas on how to do this?

************************************************** ***

Okay, here's a nasty solution I found. First, let me explain the situation better. I have a custom table in the forums db that holds text to be output on a custom webpage. I process that page through vbulletin to use vb's styles, permissions, etc. In my example above, the variable $pagedata, holds the content for the page. It also contains vb conditionals. If I just evaluate the variable in a template, the template was simply ignoring the conditionals.

So .... here is my ugly solution. When the information for that page is updated in my custom table, I create a template for that page.
PHP Code:
    $db->query("DELETE FROM `" . TABLE_PREFIX . "template` WHERE `title` LIKE '$pageurl'");
    $db->query("INSERT INTO `" . TABLE_PREFIX . "template` (`styleid`,`title`,`template`,`template_un`,`templatetype`,`dateline`,`username`,`version`) VALUES (1, '".$pageurl."','".mysql_real_escape_string(compile_template($pagedata))."','".mysql_real_escape_string($pagedata)."','template',".TIMENOW.",'Brent Layman','3.5.0')"); 
then I rebuild my templates:
PHP Code:
    require_once(DIR . '/includes/adminfunctions.php'); 
      build_all_styles(); 
Now, when I want to display the page, I first call the template and evaluate the bbcode:
PHP Code:
    eval('$pagedata = "' . fetch_template($pageurl) . '";');
    
    $parser =& new vB_BbCodeParser($vbulletin, fetch_tag_list()); 
    $parsed_text = $parser->do_parse($pagedata, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, $cachable); 
    $pagedata = $parsed_text; 
and now evaluate into my original template:
PHP Code:
eval('$html .= "' . fetch_template('pagetext') . '";'); 
There's gotta be a better way!! :o

Well, first off, you didnt define what the member is of in the conditional.. it should be this:

Code:
<if condition="is_member_of($bbuserinfo[usergroupid], 9)">Member of Group</if>More words ...
as for the other stuff, I dont have a clue..not in tune with vB's 3.5.x API.

Weird ... I'd say you are absolutely correct but oddly my conditional does work like that!? Maybe it defaults to usergroupid??

Edit - if you check out the bottom of this page (http://www.vbulletin.com/docs/html/m...n_conditionals) that is the correct usage to search both the primary and secondary groups. :surprised:

Yeah, that is weird. But, that was just an example. Anyone know how to do what I originally requested? (besides the create a template example I showed above?)

To restate the question:

I'm pulling text from a database table. The text contains template conditional code. All of the text is placed in a variable.

That variable is then called in a template. When the template is evaluated, the conditional is being ignored. Any ideas on how to make the conditional work in this situation?
