merging into the gpc array

Plugin: profile_updateprofile
I am trying to use $userdata->set to update a custom table field in 'user', however cannot find a way to merge the data with the already existent GPC array. Is this even possible?

What do you mean with "merge the data with the already existent GPC array"?

I am trying to update two custom fields in the user table when profile data is updated (profile_updateprofile). I want to clean the posted textbox inputs before inserting into the database.

I have in userdata_start:

PHP Code:


		
			
$this->validfields['homepagetitle'] = array(TYPE_STR, REQ_NO);

$this->validfields['homepagedesc'] = array(TYPE_STR, REQ_NO);

And in profile_updateprofile:

PHP Code:


		
			
$vbulletin->input->clean_array_gpc('p', array(

    'homepagetitle'    => TYPE_STR,

    'homepagedesc'  => TYPE_STR,

));

$userdata->set('homepagetitle', $vbulletin->GPC['homepagetitle']);

$userdata->set('homepagedesc', $vbulletin->GPC['homepagedesc']);

However, this (obviously) erases the GPC variables already set (other profile info).

That code would not empty any GPC variables.

Use var_dump() to debug variables if you are having problems. I don't see anything wrong with your code...make sure the data is being sent from the form and is in the $_POST array after you've submitted the form.

Also I suggest that you change 'homepagedesc' & 'homepagetitle' to TYPE_NOHTML to reduce vulnerabilities.

I will change to TYPE_NOHTML. Thanks for the advice.

As for the GPC variables, what I meant was when I update my profile, any profile fields other then 'homepagetitle' and 'homepagedesc' are not set because

PHP Code:


		
			
$vbulletin->input->clean_array_gpc('p', array(

    'homepagetitle'    => TYPE_STR,

    'homepagedesc'  => TYPE_STR,

));

is called (within the plugin profile_updateprofile) which is executed in profile.php after:

PHP Code:


		
			
    $vbulletin->input->clean_array_gpc('p', array(

        // coppa stuff

        'coppauser'    => TYPE_BOOL,

        'parentemail'  => TYPE_STR,

        // IM handles / homepage

        'aim'          => TYPE_STR,

        'yahoo'        => TYPE_STR,

        'icq'          => TYPE_STR,

        'msn'          => TYPE_STR,

        'skype'        => TYPE_STR,

        'homepage'     => TYPE_STR,

        // user title

        'resettitle'   => TYPE_STR,

        'customtext'   => TYPE_STR,

        // birthday fields

        'day'          => TYPE_INT,

        'month'        => TYPE_INT,

        'year'         => TYPE_INT,

        'oldbirthday'  => TYPE_STR,

        'showbirthday' => TYPE_UINT,

        // redirect button

        'gotopassword' => TYPE_NOCLEAN,

        // custom profile fields

        'userfield'    => TYPE_ARRAY,

    ));

Sorry but i still dont understand what you mean. Using clean_array_gpc() does not empty previously set variables.

/me is retarded

To test my plugin I was entering 'home page url' as the data for the homepage field and other strings for the custom fields I made. It just came to me that homepage was not updating because I was not inputing a valid url. Don't ya hate thinking deeper then you have to?
