vbExternal Lite: Attachments Option

[Warlord]

I'm trying to mod vbExternal Lite so as to show attachments with the post that it pulls and publishes to the news on a non-vb page.

You can find the orginal mod here. The coder doesn't support Lite versions of his work and this isn't a standard part of his mod, so I don't think he would support it even if he did support Lite versions.

I'm running vBulletin 3.6.4

Okay, I tried to modify this so it would work with attachments but unfortunately I'm coming up short for some reason.

Here's what I did.

In vbExternal.php find:

PHP Code:


        while($News = $db->fetch_array($NewestNews)){
        $Data .= ParseTemplate($Template,
                            array(
                                'threadid'     => $News['threadid'],
                                'threadname'   => $News['title'],
                                'postuserid'   => $News['postuserid'],
                                'postusername' => $News['postusername'],
                                'post'         => $bbcode_parser->parse(unhtmlspecialchars($News['pagetext']), $f),
                                'comments'     => vb_number_format($News['replycount']), 


And UNDERNEATH that ADD:

PHP Code:

                                'attachments'                    => $show['attachments'],
                                'cellpadding'                     => $stylevar[cellpadding],
                                'thumbnailattachment'               => $show['thumbnailattachment'],
                                'attachedthumbnails'                => $vbphrase[attached_thumbnails],
                                'formspacer'                         => $stylevar[formspacer],
                                'thumbnailattachment'                => $post[thumbnailattachments],
                                'imageattachment'                  => $show['imageattachment'],
                                'attachedimages'                 => $vbphrase[attached_images],
                                'imageattachments'                => $post[imageattachments],
                                'imageattachmentlink'             => $show['imageattachmentlink'],
                                'imageattachmentlinks'               => $post[imageattachmentlinks],
                                'otherattachment'                => $show['otherattachment'],
                                'attachedfiles'                    => $vbphrase[attached_files],
                                'otherattachments'                => $post[otherattachments],
                                'moderateattachment'            => $show['moderatedattachment'],
                                'attachmentspendingapproval'    => $vbphrase[attachments_pending_approval],
                                'moderatedattachments'             => $post[moderatedattachments], 


Save and upload.

In NEWS.PHP (located in your root/vbExternal folder)

Find:

PHP Code:

{post} 


And BELOW it ADD:

		<!-- attachments -->
		<if condition="{attachments}">
			<div style="padding:{cellpadding}px">
			
			<if condition="{thumbnailattachment}">
				<fieldset class="fieldset">
					<legend>{attachedthumbnails}</legend>
					<div style="padding:{formspacer}px">
					{thumbnailattachments}
					</div>
				</fieldset>
			</if>
		
			<if condition="{imageattachment}">
				<fieldset class="fieldset">
					<legend>{attachedimages}</legend>
					<div style="padding:{formspacer}px">
					{imageattachments}
					</div>
				</fieldset>
			</if>
			
			<if condition="{imageattachmentlink}">
				<fieldset class="fieldset">
					<legend>{attachedimages}</legend>
					<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="{formspacer}" border="0">
					{imageattachmentlinks}
					</table>
					</fieldset>
			</if>
			
			<if condition="{otherattachment}">
				<fieldset class="fieldset">
					<legend>{attachedfiles}</legend>
					<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="{formspacer}" border="0">
					{otherattachments}
					</table>
				</fieldset>
			</if>
			
			<if condition="{moderatedattachment}">
				<fieldset class="fieldset">
					<legend>{attachmentspendingapproval}</legend>
					<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="{formspacer}" border="0">
					{moderatedattachments}
					</table>
				</fieldset>		
			</if>
			
			</div>
		</if>
		<!-- / attachments -->

Save and upload.

Now theoretically I think this should've worked, but like I said, I'm running into a few speedbumps.

1. It doesn't seem to recognize the IF statement for some reason
2. The actual attachments don't show. (you can tell it's trying, but I think maye my variables in vbExternal.php aren't defined correctly maybe?)

Any coder here want to tell me where I went wrong?
