Greentext

Thought it would be pretty cool after hearing out a couple requests, but I have no real idea how to go about doing it. Cutting to the chase, greentext *chan style.

Text after a ">" at the beginning of a line would turn all the text after it until a line break green.

>exactly like
this

I understand BBCode could do a job like this pretty simply, but we were looking for something automatic.

Would appreciate any help on this.

Do you mean in each post?

Yeah, this would happen any time somebody makes a post with > at the beginning of a line.

I'm no expert but i think you'll need to create a plugin maybe using the hook postdata_save and use some kind of replace function or maybe regex to match any line that starts with >

So the replace function COULD look like this

PHP Code:


		
			
$text= str_ireplace( '>*' , '<span style="font-color:green;">'/>*/'</span>', $text);

--------------- Added [DATE]1328418603[/DATE] at [TIME]1328418603[/TIME] ---------------

Or maybe in PCRE format

PHP Code:


		
			
$string='>*'; 

$string = preg_replace('/>*/i', '<span style="font-color:green;">'/>*/'</span>', $string);

I'm a real novice when it comes to REGEX so maybe this will get someone's attention and they'll be able to tweak it for you :)

I managed to get this, stemming somewhat off of yours and hitting up regex and using the hook location postbit_display_complete.

PHP Code:


		
			
$pattern = htmlspecialchars('/>.*/');
$replacement = '<span style="color:green">text</span>';
$this->post['message'] = preg_replace($pattern, $replacement, $this->post['message']);

This replaces anything after > on one line with the green word "text".

It seems I can perfectly call the text, but I cannot change its color. If I try to input "$pattern"; or any such thing in, it simply returns />.*/ instead of the actual text that regex defines. This occurs even when I place the regex itself in the span tags.

Thats beacue in your REGEX (and im no expert!) you are replacing > with 'text' and not '/>*/'

What i mean to say you need to replace >* (so > and wildcard) with >* but wrapped in the span, as it is your replacing it with the word "text" in green :)

Have you tried:

PHP Code:


		
			
$replacement = '<span style="color:green">$pattern</span>';

or some variation with or without more single quotes?

Yeah, I've actually tried that. It wasn't returning the text in the regex. I went a different route and got a working code. Thanks for you help, though, it gave me my starting point. :)

PHP Code:


		
			
$pattern = htmlspecialchars('/(>.*)/');
$replacement = '<span style="color:#789922">$1</span>';
$this->post['message'] = preg_replace($pattern, $replacement, $this->post['message']);

This works great, except it shows up as regular plain text when quoted.

Any way to make it appear as green text in quotes?

Never mind; it shows up fine in quotes. It just doesn't show up in reply previews.

sorry for the bump, but this does not seem to be working when I added a plugin to postbit_display_complete. is there something that needs to be changed to make it applicable to vb5?

it just doesn't modify the post at all

PHP Code:


		
			
$pattern = htmlspecialchars('/(>.*)/');
$replacement = '<span style="color:#789922">$1</span>';
$this->post['message'] = preg_replace($pattern, $replacement, $this->post['message']);
