Create new vBulletin forum script
 
I'm building a system in which another tool on the server should create a new forum on my vBulletin board.

Is there any vBulletin documentation available for adding a new Forum in a certain parent_id with given properties? Can I use vBulletin php functions to do this?

Is it posible to include functions for adding the new forum in my own script?

This function would be very useful, as I am looking to do the same thing :)

I know it is possible with a MySQL query, but I would really like to use the datamanager.

Data Managers help so much. ;)

Have looked at the API, but I would really appreciate an example, as the API is way over my head

take a look at the admincp folder in manage forum files. the code for how vbulletin creates new forums is in them.

thanks a lot!

Which class / method should i use from this api?

I figured it out!

Here's how to create a forum using the datamanager API:

Code:
$forum = array(
'title' => 'Forum name',
'description' => '',
'link' => '',
'displayorder' => 1,
'daysprune' => -1,
'parentid' => 1,
'newthreademail' => '',
'newpostemail' => '',
'options' => array(
'moderatenewpost' => 0,
'moderatenewthread' => 0,
'moderateattach' => 0,
'warnall' => 0,
'styleoverride' => 0,
'canhavepassword' => 1,
'cancontainthreads' => 0,
'active' => 1,
'allowposting' => 0,
'indexposts' => 0,
'allowhtml' => 0,
'allowbbcode' => 1,
'allowimages' => 1,
'allowsmilies' => 1,
'allowicons' => 1,
'allowratings' => 0,
'countposts' => 0,
'showonforumjump' => 1),
'styleid' => -1,
'password' => '',
);

$forumdata =& datamanager_init('Forum', $vbulletin, ERRTYPE_CP);
foreach ($forum AS $varname => $value)
{
    if ($varname == 'options')
    {
        foreach ($value AS $key => $val)
        {
            $forumdata->set_bitfield('options', $key, $val);
        }
    }
    else
    {
        $forumdata->set($varname, $value);
    }
}

$forumid = $forumdata->save();
