Currently I?m developing an external script for a guy who also owns a VBulletin Board.
This script makes it possible to create Threads in a specific Forum without Using the "New Thread" Function in the board itself.
There is a form on an external Page , where the User can fill in Data. On Submit the data will be stored in the DB.
After activation of the submitted Data in a special Admin-Panel, the Data should be posted to a special definied Forum.
So if the User selected SVCD , the Contents will be posted there.
Until now it works perfect, but i have a problem to update the mainpage, which means : Last Post Time (in the specific forum),Thread Count and Reply Count ...)
You cant see if something new was posted in e.g. the SVCD Forum, and thats my problem...
Maybe you could take a look at the code below and correct it in that way, that it works or you tell me whats wrong with it

PHP Code:


## Get needed Data from DB (Reply-Counts)

$eintrag = "SELECT replycount FROM vbforum WHERE title='".$rel_cat."'";

         $result = mysql_query($eintrag)

               or die ("Eintrag in die Datenbank nicht m?glich zur Zeit:<br>".mysql_error());

          if ($result) {

               while ($ar=mysql_fetch_array($result,MYSQL_ASSOC)){

               $replycount=$ar["replycount"];

 $replycount_db=$replycount+1;

               }

               }

## Get needed Data from DB (Thread-Counts)

$eintrag = "SELECT threadcount FROM vbforum WHERE title='".$rel_cat."'";

         $result = mysql_query($eintrag)

               or die ("Eintrag in die Datenbank nicht m?glich zur Zeit:<br>".mysql_error());

          if ($result) {

               while ($ar=mysql_fetch_array($result,MYSQL_ASSOC)){

               $threadcount=$ar["threadcount"];

 $threadcount_db=$threadcount+1;

               }

               }

 #### Changing the mainpage

 mysql_query("UPDATE vbforum SET lastpost='".$dateline."',replycount='".$replycount_db."',lastposter='".$lastposter."',lastpostid='".$lastpostid_db."',lastthread='".$rel_name2."',lastthreadid='".$threadid."',threadcount='".$threadcount_db."', WHERE title='".$rel_cat."'"); 


here is the example :

I posted something in the SVCD Category, but on the Mainpage you cant see it...


In the UPDATE command there are some variables i initialized before the SELECTIONS...
$rel_cat means the Section like SVCD, Serie/Doku , PC-Games etc...


thanks for your help

okay I solved the problem myself with the folowing command :

PHP Code:

mysql_query("UPDATE vbforum SET lastpost='".$dateline."',lastposter='".$lastposter."',lastthread='".$rel_name2."',threadcount='".$threadcount_db."',replycount='".$replycount_db."' WHERE forumid='".$forumid."'");
