Resource ID #18

[amnesia623]

Hello -

I've been following this tutorial here: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=119350

I've been trying to access the database via this code:

$mytest = $db->query_read("SELECT state_name FROM vb_sidemenu_states WHERE state_id=1");

I put it in a plugin and assigned it to global_start hook. When I display the $mytest variable in a template, I get:

Resource id #18

I've also tried

$mytest = $vbulletin->db->query_read("SELECT state_name FROM vb_sidemenu_states WHERE state_id=1");

Where I am wrong?

The above selected table is in the vb database
