boolean

[King Kovifor]

In PHP, when I write this in a plugin:

PHP Code:

if (THIS_SCRIPT == "index")
{
    global $globaltemplates;

 if ($vbulletin->$options[option] == "1")
   {
    $globaltemplates = array_merge($globaltemplates, array('template'));
   }
 if ($vbulletin->$options[option] == "0")
   {
    $globaltemplates = array_merge($globaltemplates, array('second_template'));
   }
} 


What would be the $vbulletin->$options[option] have to equal to be true and false in a boolean mode?

You could easily change it to "== true" or "== false".

In most cases PHP will consider 0 to be false, and 1 to be true.

Better yet, just do this:

PHP Code:

// true
if ($var)
{

}

// false
if (!$var)
{

} 


Make sure you quote 'option' otherwise if it is a defined constant, you will run into some problems. I also suggest using 'yesno' for the eval code for the option.

So I could do this:

PHP Code:

if (THIS_SCRIPT == "index") 
{ 
    global $globaltemplates;
    $option = $vbulletin->$option['option'];

 if ($option) 
   { 
    $globaltemplates = array_merge($globaltemplates, array('template')); 
   } 
 if (!$option) 
   { 
    $globaltemplates = array_merge($globaltemplates, array('second_template')); 
   } 
}

Close.

PHP Code:

$option = $vbulletin->$option['option']; 


should be

PHP Code:

$option = $vbulletin->options['option']; 


where 'option' is the varname of your option.

The example I showed you

PHP Code:

if ($var)
{

}
if (!$var)
{

} 


can be achieved like this as well:

PHP Code:

if ($var)
{

}
else
{

}

Now it doesn't seem to be calling the template...

PHP Code:

if (THIS_SCRIPT == "index")  
{  
    global $globaltemplates; 
    $option = $vbulletin->$options['wp_style']; 

 if ($option)  
   {  
    $globaltemplates = array_merge($globaltemplates, array('forumhome_wp_kk'));  
   }  
 if (!$option)  
   {  
    $globaltemplates = array_merge($globaltemplates, array('forumhome_wp_dp'));  
   }  
} 


that's may actual code.
