Hi guys,

I'm trying to import news from a CMS into a forum with the vBulletin API.

I've created a function for my cms to create an news thread with first post:

PHP Code:

function vb_create_thread($forumid, $thread_title, $pagetext,$timestamp=0)
{
    global $CFG, $vbulletin;
    $timestamp = (empty($timestamp)) ? TIMENOW : $timestamp;

    // create thread
    $threaddm =& datamanager_init('Thread_FirstPost', $vbulletin, ERRTYPE_ARRAY, 'threadpost');
    
    $foruminfo = fetch_foruminfo($forumid);
    $threaddm->set_info('forum', $foruminfo);
    
    $threaddm->set('forumid', $foruminfo['forumid']);
    $threaddm->set('userid', $CFG->vbuserid);
    $threaddm->set('title', $thread_title);
    $threaddm->set('pagetext', $pagetext);
    $threaddm->set('allowsmilie', 1);
    $threaddm->set('visible', 1);
    $threaddm->set('dateline', $timestamp);
    return $threaddm->save(); 
}
/*
$CFG->vbuserid = holds userid 3 for posting
*/ 


On the import script I use a while loop to create the news threads:

PHP Code:

while($data = $mysql->fetch_array($result))
{
    $title = (empty($data['game_name'])) ? $data['category_name'] : $data['game_name'];
    $pagetext = $data['news_text'];
    $pagetext .= "\n\n[url=".$gamers->build_seo_link($data['news_id'],$title,$data['news_title'])."]".$title." | ".$data['news_title']."[/url]";
    $pagetext .= "\n\n[B]Was ist Eure Meinung?[/B]";
    #echo "2, $title | $data[news_title], $pagetext, $data[timestamp] <br />";
    $threadid = vb_create_thread(2, $title.' | '.$data['news_title'], $pagetext, $data['timestamp']);
    
    $sql = 'UPDATE news SET threadid = :threadid WHERE news_id = :news_id';
    $arg_array = array('threadid' => $threadid, 'news_id' => $data['news_id']);
    $mysql->query($sql, $arg_array);

} 


Now the problem:
The first loop is ok, vb_create_thread return a threadid. But from the second loop until the end, I won't get any news threads!

What could it be? I tried to unset $threaddm in my function but nothing help.

Any idea?

So far I figured out it might be $floodcheck. Now I need to find out how to disable it for the api...

PHP Code:

$threaddm->set_info('skip_floodcheck',  true);
