Ha ha... well I'm glad I can find ways to amuse you. I was just curious... not like you see v3 Arcade in the Navbar or anything, eh?

Can you make a specific user be allowed to use html?

If so, how?

EDIT: hey, I have an idea, could I make a secondary usergroup that has it enabled, put the desired user as secondary usergroup for it, but have him display as his primary one?

Will that work? If not.....what will?

sorry guys...wrong thread. rofl...

[Andreas]

Yes it will work, if the primary usergroup does allow membergroups.

i am pretty sure there is a plugin for that which may make things a little neater....

I got the same error someone else got about the escape strings

In the product I have I put that "Rebuild Bitfields" script Andreas wrote

<plugins>
		<plugin active="1">
			<title>Testimonialss</title>
			<phpcode><![CDATA[ // Rebuild Bitfields
require_once(DIR . '/includes/class_bitfield_builder.php');
vB_Bitfield_Builder::save($db);
$myobj =& vB_Bitfield_Builder::init();

$groupinfo = array();

for ($x = 1; $x < 9; $x++)
{
    $groupinfo["$x"]['mypermissions'] = 0;
}

foreach ($myobj->data['ugp']['mypermissions'] AS $permtitle => $permvalue)
{
    if (empty($permvalue['group']))
    {
        continue;
    }

    if (!empty($permvalue['install']))
    {
        foreach ($permvalue['install'] AS $gid)
        {
            $groupinfo["$gid"]['mypermission'] += $permvalue['value'];
        }
    }
}

foreach ($groupinfo AS $usergroupid => $permissions)
{
    $db->query_write("UPDATE " . TABLE_PREFIX . "usergroup SET mypermissions=$permissions[mypermissions] WHERE usergroupid=$usergroupid");
}
build_forum_permissions();]]></phpcode>
		</plugin>
	</plugins>

I don't know if I plugins can be used without a hook so maybe that's my problem.

Here's my bitfield

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<bitfields product="testimonials">
	<bitfielddefs>
		<group name="ugp">
			<group name="testimonials">
			<bitfield name="can_mod_testimonials" group="testimonials_permissions" phrase="can_mod_testimonials" install="">1</bitfield>
			</group>
		</group>
	</bitfielddefs>
</bitfields>

You must use the Code as Product install Code.

It was in a product but removed the plugin tags around it.

when I upload the product I get this error

### INSERT QUERY GENERATED BY fetch_query_sql() ###
INSERT INTO plugin
	(`active`, `value`, `product`)
VALUES
	('1', '\r\n		', 'testimonials-Harmor19');

MySQL Error  : Unknown column 'value' in 'field list'

[Andreas]

Did you create the product XML by hand?
There is almost no chance the product manager would generate smth. like that ...

[harmor19]

Well I took references frommy other product xml's.

Thanks.

Now I'm on to update my testimonials mod.

Hi, this is the XML I'm trying to use:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<bitfields product="vBulletin">
	<bitfielddefs>
		<group name="ugp">
			<group name="charlimit">
				<bitfield name="isexempt" group="post_thread_permissions"  phrase="exempt_from_char_limit"></bitfield>
			</group>
		</group>
	</bitfielddefs>
</bitfields>

On save, it says "Warning: mysql_real_escape_string() expects parameter 1 to be string, array given in /includes/class_core.php on line 635... why?
