No suggestion is little to me.
Please, by all means speak your mind guys.
I'm still learning and WANT to learn.
First off, it's "just one" field.
Called "downloads" under the "user" table.
It's not a vbulletin field.
It's a custom field added to vbulletin's "user" table.
Downside is TWTCommish used a very common name for his field.
I was trying to avoid changing to a new field as I was hoping to keep this compatible with the old whodownloaded hack which many have been using for years.

Yes, and I had a feeling you would say this.
I just had a nice crash course in handling arrays so I guess I could pull this off if it's really neccessary.

I haven't learned about serializing yet. Is this neccessary because of things like special characters in the text I'm writing to the database or for some other reason?

Duely noted and I will for hacks I write in future.
I was just working with what was around before me.
Hey, would it help if I showed my php code?
Then you can at least see what I'm doing before and after the database.
The code and variable names are pretty easy to follow.
I'll gladly post if someone's maybe willing to help my quest.
Here's my "attachment_complete" hook that writes to the db
Code:
$colon = ':';
$ip = IPADDRESS;
$alt_ip = ALT_IP;
$dateline = TIMENOW;
$userid = $vbulletin->userinfo['userid'];
$attachmentid = $vbulletin->input->clean_gpc('r', 'attachmentid', TYPE_UINT);
if ($userid AND $attachmentid AND $dateline)
{
$dl = $db->query_first("
SELECT downloads
FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "user
WHERE userid = $userid
");
$comma = ($dl[downloads]) ? ',' : '';
if ($vbulletin->options['logip'])
{
$db->query_write("
UPDATE " . TABLE_PREFIX . "user
SET downloads = '$dl[downloads]$comma$attachmentid$colon$dateline$colon$ip$colon$alt_ip'
WHERE userid = $userid
");
}
else
{
$db->query_write("
UPDATE " . TABLE_PREFIX . "user
SET downloads = '$dl[downloads]$comma$attachmentid$colon$dateline$colon$colon'
WHERE userid = $userid
");
}
};
Here's my extension php file to handle the reading and array handling.
Code:
<?php
require_once("./global.php");
$attachmentid = $vbulletin->input->clean_gpc('r', 'attachmentid', TYPE_UINT);
$whodl = array();
$whodl[shownames] = false;
$whodl[showdates] = false;
$whodl[showips] = false;
$whodl[showaltips] = false;
if ($show['whodladmin'])
{
$whodl[shownames] = true;
$whodl[showdates] = true;
$whodl[showips] = true;
$whodl[showaltips] = true;
}
else
{
if ($show['whodlnames'])
{
$whodl[shownames] = true;
}
}
if ($whodl[shownames])
{
$whodl[rows] = 0;
$whodl[tracked] = 0;
if ($attachmentid)
{
$poster = $db->query_first("
SELECT userid, dateline, filename, visible, counter, postid
FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "attachment
WHERE attachmentid = $attachmentid
");
if ($poster[visible] = 1)
{
if (!$poster[userid] OR $poster[userid] == 0)
{
$poster[userid] = 0;
$poster[username] = $vbphrase['unregistered'];
}
else
{
$postername = $db->query_first("
SELECT username
FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "user
WHERE userid = $poster[userid]
");
}
if ($show['whodldatestoposter'] AND $vbulletin->userinfo['userid'] == $poster[userid])
{
$whodl[showdates] = true;
}
$whodl[postername] = $postername[username];
$whodl[posterid] = $poster[userid];
$whodl[posterdate] = vbdate($vbulletin->options['dateformat'],$poster[dateline]);
$whodl[filename] = $poster[filename];
$whodl[counter] = $poster[counter];
$whodl[postid] = $poster[postid];
$whodlrows = $db->query_read("
SELECT userid, username, downloads
FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "user
WHERE downloads LIKE \"$attachmentid:%\" OR downloads LIKE \"%,$attachmentid:%\" OR downloads LIKE \"$attachmentid,%\" OR downloads LIKE \"%,$attachmentid,%\" OR downloads LIKE \"%,$attachmentid\"
ORDER BY username ASC
");
if ($db->num_rows($whodlrows))
{
$whodl[rows] = $db->num_rows($whodlrows);
while ($whodlrow = $db->fetch_array($whodlrows))
{
$whodl[usersid] = $whodlrow[userid];
$whodl[usersname] = $whodlrow[username];
$whodluser = preg_replace('/:/', ',', $whodlrow[downloads], -1);
$whodluser = preg_split('/,/', $whodluser, -1);
$whodluser = array_count_values($whodluser);
$whodl[userscount] = $whodluser[$attachmentid];
$whodl[tracked] += $whodl[userscount];
eval('$whodownloadsbit .= "' . fetch_template('whodownloadsbit') . '";');
if ($whodl[showdates] OR $whodl[showips] OR $whodl[showaltips])
{
$whodlextras = preg_split('/,/', $whodlrow[downloads], -1);
foreach ($whodlextras as $whodlextra)
{
$whodlextra = preg_split('/:/', $whodlextra, -1);
if ($whodlextra[0] == $attachmentid)
{
$whodl[date] = $whodl[showdates] ? vbdate($vbulletin->options['dateformat'],$whodlextra[1]) : '';
$whodl[ip] = $whodl[showips] ? $whodlextra[2] : '';
$whodl[alt_ip] = $whodl[showaltips] ? $whodlextra[3] : '';
eval('$whodownloadsbit .= "' . fetch_template('whodownloadsdate') . '";');
}
}
}
}
}
else
{
$whodl[error] = 'No Users Found';
eval('$whodownloadsbit .= "' . fetch_template('whodownloadsbit') . '";');
}
}
else
{
$whodl[error] = 'File Not Found';
eval('$whodownloadsbit .= "' . fetch_template('whodownloadsbit') . '";');
}
}
else
{
$whodl[error] = 'File Not Found';
eval('$whodownloadsbit .= "' . fetch_template('whodownloadsbit') . '";');
}
}
else
{
$whodl[error] = 'Feature Disabled Or No Permission';
eval('$whodownloadsbit .= "' . fetch_template('whodownloadsbit') . '";');
}
eval('print_output("' . fetch_template('whodownloads') . '");');
?>
and then I add two new $show variables with a global hook to handle permissions for the ability to view the button which opens my whodownloaded popup.
Code:
$show['whodldatestoposter'] = true;
$show['whodladmin'] = iif($vbulletin->userinfo['usergroupid'] == 6, true, false);
$show['whodlnames'] = iif($vbulletin->userinfo['usergroupid'] == 5 OR $vbulletin->userinfo['usergroupid'] == 7 OR $vbulletin->userinfo['usergroupid'] == 2, true, false);
