Hi everyone.

The page title is set on the template,

Code:

<title>$vboptions[bbtitle]</title>

... is there way to set title dynamically within the custom php file?

Thanks in advance.

BirdOPrey5 · #**1293** 12-09-2010, 02:06 PM

If you make a variable on the .php file like $customtitle, then put <title>$customtitle</title> in the template that *should* work. I'd try it at least.

Thanks BirdOPrey5, I'll give it a try!

Edit: Worked like a charm, thanks!

Thanks for the tutorial, works perfect!

I need some help guys, I've got my page working for the most part. I just need to know how to make it parse BBCode that's being pulled from vBulletins threads.

You need to initialize and use the BB Code parser...
In the php file near the top add the lines:

PHP Code:


			
   require_once(DIR . '/includes/class_bbcode.php');
   $bbcode_parser =& new vB_BbCodeParser($GLOBALS['vbulletin'], fetch_tag_list(),true);

Then you can use this line (change the $rawthread and $parsedthread variables to your needs) to get the parsed output (BB Code converted to HTML)

PHP Code:


			
 $parsedthread=  $bbcode_parser->parse($rawthread ,'nonforum', true);

The "true" on the end is to parse smilies too... if you don't want smilies make it "false".

awesome, thanks for helping me out,.. I'm a little stuck at the moment though,.. could you take a look at my test.php page for me- it's still not parsing BBCode,..

PHP Code:


			
<?php
// ####################### SET PHP ENVIRONMENT ###########################
error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE & ~8192);  
require_once(DIR . '/includes/class_bbcode.php'); 
$bbcode_parser =& new vB_BbCodeParser($GLOBALS['vbulletin'], fetch_tag_list(),true);
$parsedthread=  $bbcode_parser->parse($rawthread ,'nonforum', true);
// #################### DEFINE IMPORTANT CONSTANTS #######################
define('NO_REGISTER_GLOBALS', 1);
define('THIS_SCRIPT', 'test'); // change this depending on this files name
// ################### PRE-CACHE TEMPLATES AND DATA ######################
// get special phrase groups
$phrasegroups = array();
// get special data templates from the datastore
$specialtemplates = array();
// pre-cache templates used by all actions
$globaltemplates = array('TEST',);
// pre-cache templates used by specific actions
$actiontemplates = array();
// ######################### REQUIRE BACK-END ############################
require_once('./global.php');
// #######################################################################
// ######################## START MAIN SCRIPT ############################
// #######################################################################
eval('print_output("' . fetch_template('TEST') . '");');
?>

Using:

PHP Code:


			
require_once(DIR . '/includes/class_bbcode.php');

Gives me this error:

Quote:

Warning: require_once(DIR/includes/class_bbcode.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /forum/test.php on line 4
Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required 'DIR/includes/class_bbcode.php' (include_path='.:/usr/local/php5/lib/php') in /forum/test.php on line 4

Using:

PHP Code:


			
require_once('./includes/class_bbcode.php');

Gives me this error:

Quote:

I'm also a little confused on what to do with:
Then you can use this line (change the $rawthread and $parsedthread variables to your needs) to get the parsed output (BB Code converted to HTML)

BirdOPrey5 · #**1299** 12-20-2010, 12:31 AM

It looks like the errors are because you need the require_once ('./global.php') file above everything else basically... in your script directly under the "error reporting" line near the top. Also if this php file is in the same directory as your forum root (where global.php is located) you don't need the ./ just use require_once ('global.php');

What variable stores the text you need to have parsed? I'm calling it $rawthread in my code... and the output of the BB Code Parsing function, the "translated" text if you will, I'm calling $parsedthread. You can use any names you want but whatever you call $parsedthread is going to be the data you want to output to the browser.

--------------- Added [DATE]1292812596[/DATE] at [TIME]1292812596[/TIME] ---------------

Looking over your code you seem to be missing any data to parse... You don't parse a template usually, a template should have real HTML not BB Code. Usually text like posts and signatures would be the only things requiring parsing.

just.b.jealous · #**1300** 12-20-2010, 07:18 PM

Well I'm making some progress at least,.. you've got it working- which I owe you millions of thanks for, but I'm having an issue of it parsing a little to much onto the page.

I'll break down what I'm trying to accomplish.

The test.php page calls a new template called test,.
The test template calls a plugin named $homepage_recent_post,..
$homepage_recent_post displays:
7 recent threads from specific subforums,
Display the thread title,
Display the date posted,
Display who posted it,
Display the pagetext, (the post itself),
Display a link to that thread.

If I setup my test.php page like:

PHP Code:


			
<?php
// ####################### SET PHP ENVIRONMENT ###########################
error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE & ~8192);  
// ######################### REQUIRE BACK-END ############################
require_once('global.php');
// #################### DEFINE IMPORTANT CONSTANTS #######################
define('NO_REGISTER_GLOBALS', 1);
define('THIS_SCRIPT', 'test'); // change this depending on this files name
// ################### PRE-CACHE TEMPLATES AND DATA ######################
// get special phrase groups
$phrasegroups = array();
// get special data templates from the datastore
$specialtemplates = array();
// pre-cache templates used by all actions
$globaltemplates = array('TEST',);
// pre-cache templates used by specific actions
$actiontemplates = array();
// #######################################################################
// ######################## START MAIN SCRIPT ############################
// #######################################################################
eval('print_output("' . fetch_template('TEST') . '");');
?>

With this plugin:

PHP Code:


			
$numposts='7';

$thrdqry = $vbulletin->db->query_read("
    SELECT thread.threadid, thread.title, username, post.dateline, post.pagetext FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "thread AS thread
            LEFT JOIN " . TABLE_PREFIX . "post AS post ON thread.firstpostid = post.postid
            WHERE thread.forumid IN (61, 117, 118, 119, 120, 121, 122, 123, 124, 125, 126, 130, 131, 132, 133, 134, 136, 137, 138, 139) AND thread.visible = '1'
    ORDER BY thread.dateline DESC
    LIMIT 0, $numposts ");

while ($thrds = $vbulletin->db->fetch_array($thrdqry))    
{
    $postdate = vbdate($vbulletin->options['dateformat'], $thrds['dateline'], true);
    $posttime = vbdate($vbulletin->options['timeformat'], $thrds['dateline']);
    $homepage_recent_post .=<<<EOD
<div class="post-1 post type-post hentry category-uncategorized" id="post-1">
    <h2 class="title"><a href="showthread.php?t=$thrds[threadid]" target="_blank" alt="$thrds[title]" title="$thrds[title]">
        $thrds[title]
</a>
    </h2>
    <div class="postdate">
        <img src="images/date.png" /> $postdate <img src="images/user.png" /> $thrds[username] 
    </div>
    <div class="entry">
        <p>$thrds[pagetext]</p><a href="showthread.php?t=$thrds[threadid]" target="_blank" alt="$thrds[title]" title="$thrds[title]">
        Read more..
</a><br/><br/>
    </div>
</div>
EOD;
            
}

I'll get the 7 last post, but they're unparsed.

Now if I setup my test.php like:

PHP Code:


			
<?php
// ####################### SET PHP ENVIRONMENT ###########################
error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE & ~8192);  
// ######################### REQUIRE BACK-END ############################
require_once('global.php');
require_once('includes/class_bbcode.php'); 
$bbcode_parser =& new vB_BbCodeParser($GLOBALS['vbulletin'], fetch_tag_list(),true);
$homepage_recent_post=  $bbcode_parser->parse($homepage_recent_post ,'nonforum', true);
// #################### DEFINE IMPORTANT CONSTANTS #######################
define('NO_REGISTER_GLOBALS', 1);
define('THIS_SCRIPT', 'test'); // change this depending on this files name
// ################### PRE-CACHE TEMPLATES AND DATA ######################
// get special phrase groups
$phrasegroups = array();
// get special data templates from the datastore
$specialtemplates = array();
// pre-cache templates used by all actions
$globaltemplates = array('TEST',);
// pre-cache templates used by specific actions
$actiontemplates = array();
// #######################################################################
// ######################## START MAIN SCRIPT ############################
// #######################################################################
eval('print_output("' . fetch_template('TEST') . '");');
?>

and with the same $homepage_recent_post plugin, it'll parse the plugin- pagetext
and all, but then it's parsing too much onto my page. Here's an example of the same post from above, but parsed.

Is there any way to parse just post.pagetext onto this page instead of parsing the entire plugin? If so, how do I go about doing it?

BirdOPrey5 · #**1301** 12-20-2010, 08:21 PM

The BB Code parsing needs to be done in your plugin not the .php file...

Using the 1st version you posted in the above post make the plugin into:

PHP Code:


			
$numposts='7';

$thrdqry = $vbulletin->db->query_read("
    SELECT thread.threadid, thread.title, username, post.dateline, post.pagetext FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "thread AS thread
            LEFT JOIN " . TABLE_PREFIX . "post AS post ON thread.firstpostid = post.postid
            WHERE thread.forumid IN (61, 117, 118, 119, 120, 121, 122, 123, 124, 125, 126, 130, 131, 132, 133, 134, 136, 137, 138, 139) AND thread.visible = '1'
    ORDER BY thread.dateline DESC
    LIMIT 0, $numposts ");

while ($thrds = $vbulletin->db->fetch_array($thrdqry))    
{
    $postdate = vbdate($vbulletin->options['dateformat'], $thrds['dateline'], true);
    $posttime = vbdate($vbulletin->options['timeformat'], $thrds['dateline']);



//Code I added

$thrds[pagetext] =  $bbcode_parser->parse($thrds[pagetext] ,'nonforum', true);  





    $homepage_recent_post .=<<<EOD
<div class="post-1 post type-post hentry category-uncategorized" id="post-1">
    <h2 class="title"><a href="showthread.php?t=$thrds[threadid]" target="_blank" alt="$thrds[title]" title="$thrds[title]">
        $thrds[title]
</a>
    </h2>
    <div class="postdate">
        <img src="images/date.png" /> $postdate <img src="images/user.png" /> $thrds[username] 
    </div>
    <div class="entry">
        <p>$thrds[pagetext]</p><a href="showthread.php?t=$thrds[threadid]" target="_blank" alt="$thrds[title]" title="$thrds[title]">
        Read more..
</a><br/><br/>
    </div>
</div>
EOD;
            
}

Don't forget to put the:

PHP Code:


			
 require_once(DIR . '/includes/class_bbcode.php');
   $bbcode_parser =& new vB_BbCodeParser($GLOBALS['vbulletin'], fetch_tag_list(),true);

At the top of the plugin now... and you may need global.php too, try it and see.
