I think there is another thread on how to create threads. It may be more ontopic there. Otherwise, I think we'd need to see your code...

$threaddm->save();

if you need the threadid save it with

PHP Code:


			
$id = $threaddm->save();

this works but how can I also set the prefix? added a prefix line returns an error

--------------- Added [DATE]1241372989[/DATE] at [TIME]1241372989[/TIME] ---------------

found it. you have to use "prefixid" & you set it to the prefix var. like this

$threaddm->set('prefixid', 'report');

I'm using this for our mod forum so alerted posts or pms have prefixes

I was wondering if someone could tell me what is wrong with my script. All I am trying to do is post a new message in an existing thread. When I put this script in a php page and hit it from my browser, I don't get any error, but I also don't get a message posted. I don't even see the "save returned" message in my browser. If I change some things (like the path to class_dm_threadpost), I get an error, so I know it is running something.

As for the echo not working, it seems like as soon as I put those require_once at the top of my file, I can't echo any messages anymore. But I only have those echos in there because the message isn't being posted to my thread.

PHP Code:


			
<?php

require_once('global.php'); 

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



$postdm = new vB_DataManager_Post($vbulletin, ERRTYPE_STANDARD); 



$threadid=1565;

$forumid=5;

$symid='asdf';

$userid=2;

$message="Testing.Testing.Testing.Testing.Testing.";



$timenow = TIMENOW;

$threadinfo = fetch_threadinfo($threadid);

$foruminfo = fetch_foruminfo($forumid);



$postdm->set_info('forum', $foruminfo);

$postdm->set_info('thread', $threadinfo);  

$postdm->set('threadid', $threadid);

$postdm->set('title', $symid);

$postdm->set('userid', $userid);

$postdm->set('pagetext', $message);

$postdm->set('allowsmilie', 1);

$postdm->set('visible', 1);

$postdm->set('dateline', $timenow);

$xxx = $postdm->save();

unset($postdm);  

echo "save returned:";

echo $xxx;



?>

Do you have access to php.ini and/or PHP error log? Check the error log.

If echo does not work, try the PHP error_log() function. You may also find the var_export() function useful.

I have almost the same code working with vb 3.6.1. What is your version?

I am running 3.7.4 PL1.

If I start with an empty php file and just put an echo statement, I see the message when I hit the page. Anything I echo before the line that includes class_dm_threadpost.php I see output, but anything after I don't. For example:

PHP Code:


			
<?php

require_once('global.php'); 

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



echo "Hello world.";

?>

Shows nothing in the page. But

PHP Code:


			
<?php

require_once('global.php'); 

echo "Hello world.";

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



?>

Shows "Hello world." on the page.

I am using godaddy, so I don't know how I can access the php error file. I tried using an set_error_handler as described on this page: http://us3.php.net/set-error-handler , to catch any errors, but still I got no output. It is bizarre. It is like including that class_dm_threadpost is killing everything. I have not modified any of my vbulletin files, so it should be whatever came with 3.7.4.

var_export() behaves the same way as echo. Before that require_once line it works, after it, I see nothing.

--------------- Added [DATE]1251815891[/DATE] at [TIME]1251815891[/TIME] ---------------

Doh. I figured it out. I have to include another file as well (class_dm.php). It seems like without it, something in the class_dm_threadpost was unhappy.

This works:

PHP Code:


			
<?php

require_once('global.php'); 

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

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



$threadid=1565;

$forumid=5;

$symid='asdf';

$userid=2;

$message="Testing.Testing.Testing.Testing.Testing.";



$timenow = TIMENOW;

$threadinfo = fetch_threadinfo($threadid);

$foruminfo = fetch_foruminfo($forumid);



$postdm = new vB_DataManager_Post($vbulletin, ERRTYPE_STANDARD); 

$postdm->set_info('forum', $foruminfo);

$postdm->set_info('thread', $threadinfo);  

$postdm->set('threadid', $threadid);

$postdm->set('title', $symid);

$postdm->set('userid', $userid);

$postdm->set('pagetext', $message);

$postdm->set('allowsmilie', 1);

$postdm->set('visible', 1);

$postdm->set('dateline', $timenow);

$xxx = $postdm->save();

unset($postdm);  

echo 'save returned:';

echo $xxx;

?>

I have a slight problem.... My code is inserting the post perfectly and everything is working in that respect. The problem is that the last post field is not being updated. I know this has something to do with the timestamp, but I'm not sure why the issue is happening. I'm importing a chat transcript and putting each chat post as a forum post. The import script runs every 5 minutes and uses the chat post's timestamp as the forum post time stamp. The forum posts appear just as they were posted within the chat and the time is dead on... Even with the above code included at the end, it only updates the forum counters, it doesn't update the last post index. Now if I swap the timestamp from the actual chat post time to TIMENOW
it's updated. Anyone have any ideas on how I can resolve this.

Did you try build_thread_counters?
