    $DB_site->query("
            INSERT INTO fp_news_info
                (threadid, avatar, summary)
            VALUES
                ($threadinfo[threadid], '$news[avatar]', '$news[summary]')
    "); 


It's not passing the $threadinfo[threadid] variable. I used to insert it directly into the database, but I want a cleaner version. So I modified build_new_post function and added a new variable. So now it would say:

PHP Code:

function build_new_post($type = 'thread', $foruminfo, $threadinfo, $parentid, &$post, &$errors, $news) 


Then an if news exist check, and my previous sql code. However I'm not very sure if this won't bug current posting? Because previously with build_new_post code it'd post, now it just gives a blank page. I need to add the $news variable or it won't work. Regular posting and topic creating is working as far as I can see, but I want to be sure if this is in fact going to work... (did that make sense? )

Did that end up working? If so, can you post your build_new_post function, as I need a way to get the threadid back out of this...
