Using VB variables in custom php plugin possible?

I've got this plugin:

Code:

ob_start();

   include('http://www.va-studios.com/forums/customphp/vigilance.php');

   $vigilance = ob_get_contents();

ob_end_clean();





vB_Template::preRegister('postbit_legacy',array('vigilance' => $vigilance));

I've added a field in my database that I need to access based on the current poster's ID in the postbit_legacy. This code displays right under the users post count on the left.

Is there any way to get the poster's ID in my vigilance.php file so that I can do a db query on it or can I not access VB variables even if I include the global.php file in my script?

Simply stated, I need to do an sql query on the database for the user in the postbit_legacy and display the custom field I added in the database.

Why don't you just execute your code in the plugin?

I'm still unable to find out how to grab the userID of the poster in my script so that I can grab their custom profile field database entry.

I just need to be able to parse "fieldX" into my script when I execute it.

Any ideas?

My suggestion is that you just take the code from vigilance.php and put it inside the plugin.
Then you can just use $post['userid'].

How would I do something like this in the plugin, unsure how to get user variables in the plugins.

PHP Code:


		
			
$var = fieldX; //fieldX = custom user profile field
for($i=0; $i < $var; $i++) {
      echo "<img src = 'image.jpg'>";
}

This code gets the logged in users info, but how do you get the posters info related to that postbit section?

PHP Code:


		
			
$vigilanceXP = $vbulletin->userinfo[field5];

vB_Template::preRegister('postbit_legacy',array('vigilanceXP' => $vigilanceXP));

$post['field5'].

$post['fieldX'] does not get any data when loading the plugin. I have it in global_start, do I need to be setting this somewhere else or delcaring any includes in the plugin?

global_start is obsolete in the latest VB4 versions. Use global_bootstrap_init_start instead

Ok if I set $xpRedOutput to = "test"; then it outputs test, and I know for sure there is data in field8, so why isn't this code snippet resulting in anything being output? All links for images and whanot are correct.

PHP Code:


		
			
$xp_num_reds = $post[field8];
for($i=1; $i<=$xp_num_reds; $i++) {
    $xpRedOutput .= "<img src = 'http://www.va-studios.com/images/xpbarred.png'>";
}

vB_Template::preRegister('postbit_legacy',array('xpRedOutput' => $xpRedOutput));

<vb:if condition="$post['field8'] == '1'"> in the postbit legacy works fine, but $post['field8'] doesn't work in the plugin.
