Admin functions

Hi all, i'm about to start working on the admin functions for my vBstory hack, but I don't know where to start.

OK, that is a lie, I know that I should use

PHP Code:


		
			
<?php

error_reporting(7);

require("./global.php");

cpheader();



/* .... your script here ... */



cpfooter();

?>

as a basis for the file, but after that I'm stuck.

I think that the admin supports some type of non-template based options, with some special code for input tags, etc... but I don't know what these are.

Can anyone gimme a hand please?

I am not a coder myself, but what I see the other guys do is write a function for edit, delete or add and then they edit the admin/index.php with the makeeyesnode do?edit do?add etc...and when you click on them it allows you to write directly in database.

I've just had a look at the code for the admin section of the vBquiz hack, and damn - it looks very confusing :(

I'll have to see if i can pull it apart and see what I can learn from it :)

you might want to look at the glossary hack. It is less complexed.

it took me a while, but I think i'm getting used to this, it's really each once you use all the functions that vB has provided.

what do you think of my form code for adding a story to the database?

PHP Code:


		
			
            // add  story

            echo "<p><b>vBstory $ver - Add Story</b></p>";



            doformheader("vbstory_admin","add");

            maketableheader("Add Story - All fields are required.","",1,2);

            makeinputcode("Story Title", "title", "");

            echo '<tr class="'.getrowbg().'"><td valign=top>';

            echo "Genre";

            echo "</td><td valign=top>";

            // get genre list

            echo "<select name='genreid'>";

            foreach ($genres_global[title] as $genres_key => $genres_value) {

                echo "<option value='$genres_key'>$genres_value</option>";

            }

            echo "</select>";

            echo "</td></tr>";

            makeinputcode("Character Name", "name", "");

            maketextareacode("Background","info",$description,6,50);

            makeinputcode("Display <small>1 for yes. 0 for no.</small>", "display", "1");

            makehiddencode("what", "story");

            makehiddencode("post", "1");

            doformfooter("Add Story");

why do you make it only one Character? A story should have more than one Character...

it only has one Character because the idea is that you take on the role of that person in the story.

the stories will be written as if you was telling a story to your grandchildren from a first person perspective, but in a past tense.

For example:
I sat in the park and waited for my friends.
instead of:
He sat in the park and waited for his friends.

The story can have more than one character, but you will only have control of one :)

I hope that makes sense?
