AdminCP Programming Forum
 

Hopefully I'm not stepping on anyone's toes or over looking something.. I've been trying to get help and find examples on coding custom pages and applications for the vBulletin AdminCP but haven't had much luck. I wanted to make a suggestion that might help shed some light on this mysterious area of coding. Could we please have a specific forum for the discussion of how to code AdminCP pages?

Thank you for taking the time to hear me out..

Thanks for the suggestion.. I've already exhausted that page... I'm looking for a more on-going dialogue and a source for how-to's, etc. that relate to building custom admincp pages. For instance....the page for that link you suggested shows the various methods for reading and writing to a database table however it doesn't show someone who has never created a admincp page before an example of using them.

Case in point... in the application I"m working on, I've created the left side nav menu with a couple menu items. ex. "add link" and "test" In the XML file these links are pointing to a file called "vba_custom_admin.php". Add link points to "?p=addlink" and test points to "p=test". When I choose "add link"
it displays my form, when I select the "test" link, it falls through all the "if" statements in my code and attempts to save data to the database. I'd like toknow how to keep it from falling through.

There is already a programming forum which covers all vb programming, including the ACP. :)

Ok Thank you for pointing this out. It seemed like everyone was talking about everything except AdminCP development.
