Default command help
I know there must be some sort of command that only selects a certain number of characters from a mySQL table. I see it in action on the search page for the forums. It only gets the first bit of the post, and then puts ...

How can I do this for something else?

But I'm not liscensed yet. This is a PHP forum anyway, what does it have to do with registering? I plan on buying one, just haven't gotten the money yet.

This question doesn't really relate to vB anyway, just PHP. I only noticed that vB used it and it was a great example of what I wanted.

This is a PHP forum for vB owners. Plus I noted in another thread that you already admit to having an illegal copy of vB, albeit you say you're not running it on any sites just yet and you plan to buy it soon.

Well, atleast I didn't use it anywhere. I wanted to do the right thing, so I told everything straight forward. In a few weeks, I will have a legal vB license. I just wanted a little help with PHP. Sorry I even asked.

Yep, and I commend you for your honesty. Of course once you purchase vB you'll report the site where you downloaded the illegal copy, right?

P.S. You might want to search for an answer in the MySQL forum at vbulletin.com. There are a lot more messages there and it's possible your question has come up before.

So how would that work? Like say I want a news script. And in this script I want it to have only a portion of the news message displayed, and a full story link. How would i only select X amount of characters from the given table?

I believe this is exactly how the PluhNews hack works.

Sure there are plenty of news scripts out there, but I want to have my own. Mainly so it is totally custom to my site, and so I can say I wrote my own news script
