vb.org Archive - Editpost preview

This is what the hack does: It let's you preview a message when you're editing it, you can only preview when you're posting or replying the way it is now:

It works on my testserver, but I've not tested on a 'live' forum, but it seems to be working allright...

Instructions

1 Backup your editpost.php file!!! and open the original one...

Then:

after:

PHP Code:


		
			
if (!isset($action) or $action=="") {

  $action="editpost";

}

insert:

PHP Code:


		
			
if($preview AND $action="updatepost")

    $action = "editpost";

after:

PHP Code:


		
			
if ($action=="editpost") {



  // draw nav bar

  $navbar=makenavbar($threadinfo[threadid],"thread",1);

insert:

PHP Code:


		
			
  if($preview)

  { $parseurl=iif($parseurl=="yes",1,0);

      $email=iif($email=="yes",1,0);

      $allowsmilie=iif($disablesmilies=="yes",0,1);

      $signature=iif($signature=="yes",1,0);

    

    $previewmessage=$message;

    

    if ($parseurl) {

      $previewmessage = $postinfo[message]=parseurl($previewmessage);

      }

    

    $previewpost=1;

    $previewmessage=bbcodeparse($previewmessage,$foruminfo[forumid],$allowsmilie);

    $postinfo[message]=$message;    



    if ($signature) {

      $previewmessage.=bbcodeparse("\n__________________\n$bbuserinfo[signature]",0,$allowsmilies);

    }



    eval("\$postpreview=\"".gettemplate("editpost_postpreview")."\";");



    $parseurlchecked=iif($parseurl,"checked","");

    $postinfo[allowsmilie] = $allowsmilie;

    $postinfo[showsignature] = $signature;

    $postinfo[iconid] = $iconid;

    $postinfo[title] = $title;

    $previewchecked=0;

  }

  else{

       $postinfo[message]=htmlspecialchars($postinfo[pagetext]);

    $parseurlchecked="CHECKED";

  }

Replace:

PHP Code:


		
			
 $postinfo[message]=htmlspecialchars($postinfo[pagetext]);

with:

PHP Code:


		
			
//$postinfo[message]=htmlspecialchars($postinfo[pagetext]);

replace:

PHP Code:


		
			
   if ($checkid=$DB_site->query_first("SELECT subscribethreadid FROM subscribethread WHERE userid='$userinfo[userid]' AND threadid=$threadinfo[threadid]")) {

    $emailchecked="CHECKED";

  } else {

    $emailchecked="";

  }

with:

PHP Code:


		
			
   if(!$preview)

      $email=$DB_site->query_first("SELECT subscribethreadid FROM subscribethread WHERE userid=$userinfo[userid] AND threadid=$threadinfo[threadid]");

  $emailchecked=iif($email,"CHECKED","");

Make a new template called 'editpost_postpreview' with the following content:

Code:

 <table width=100% border=0 cellspacing=1 cellpadding=4>

<TR bgcolor="#6c6081">

<TD valign=middle><smallfont color="#afa3c5"><B>Post Preview:</B></smallfont></TD>

</TR>



<tr bgcolor="#DEDEDE">

<td><normalfont>$previewmessage</normalfont></td>

</tr>

</table>



<br>

then edit your 'editpost' template:

insert the '$postpreview' variable at the appropiate place (look into the 'newthread' template for an example)

and replace:

Code:

<INPUT TYPE="Submit" NAME="SUBMIT" ACCESSKEY="S" VALUE="Submit Now">

with:

Code:

<INPUT TYPE="Submit" NAME="preview" ACCESSKEY="P" VALUE="Preview">

<INPUT TYPE="Submit" NAME="SUBMIT" ACCESSKEY="S" VALUE="Submit Now">

All done! Enjoy :)
