Need a little PHP help please

[HMBeaty]

Not sure what I'm doing wrong here lol. But reworked my code in my file a bit and now I can't seem to figure out how to get the BB code to parse. But, basically, this is all being done by automatic thread creation.

This is what I had before:

PHP Code:

$contactemailt = "[b]E-mail:[/b] {$vbulletin->GPC['contactemail']}"; 


And this is what I have now:

PHP Code:

$tappemail = $vbphrase['usml_staffapp_appemail']; 


...along with

PHP Code:

$tappemail {$vbulletin->GPC['contactemail']} 


So, my question is, how can I add the BB code tags back to it? lol

To be more specific, I want $tappemail to be parsed in bb code

The ways I've tried were

PHP Code:

[B]$tappemail[/B] {$vbulletin->GPC['contactemail']} 


And

PHP Code:

$tappemail = "[B]"$vbphrase['usml_staffapp_appemail']"[/B]"; 


Which definately failed lol (I was getting a white screen)

Add the html equivalent to the text in the usml_staffapp_appemail phrase.

<b>E-mail:</b>

if that is in the phrase.

Wouldn't that just come out in the thread as "<b>E-mail:</b>" with HTML disabled?

No, it will be fine. Try it and you will see.

[HMBeaty]

Just did, came out as

<b>Email:</b> xxxxxx@xxxxxxxxx.com

--------------- Added [DATE]1303039389[/DATE] at [TIME]1303039389[/TIME] ---------------

Ok, just made 2 phrases for each one. 1 with bbcode (thread) and 1 without (email), so thats fixed for now lol

Did you edit the phrase itself and add the bold tags?

Where were you trying to use the phrase that showed the code?
