How to write plugins replace temp

[Easy5s.net]

How to create a new template instead of VBB templates are used.
For example, I've created a custom template to replace the template forumhome_forumbit_level2_post, and I need a plugins to do this automatically. Thank

I don't know if you'd want a product to replace that template, because some people might have custom styles (and there's also the issue of multiple styles and mobile styles). I'm not sure of the right way to handle that. But one thing you could do is name your new template something else, then arrange for your template to be used. The code that uses that template is in functions_forumlist and looks like this:

PHP Code:

    // build the template for the current forum
    ($hook = vBulletinHook::fetch_hook('forumbit_display')) ? eval($hook) : false;
    $templater = vB_Template::create("forumhome_forumbit_level$depth$tempext");
        $templater->register('childforumbits', $childforumbits);
        $templater->register('collapseimg_forumid', $collapseimg_forumid); 


so you could have a plugin using hook forumbit_display that changed $depth or $tempext so that it was using your new name.

I guess this still causes issues if someone has a custom style, so I'm not sure if this is really any better.

i have add plugin

PHP Code:

$templater = vB_Template::create("custom_forumhome_forumbit");
                $templater->register('childforumbits', $childforumbits);
                $templater->register('collapseimg_forumid', $collapseimg_forumid);
                $templater->register('collapseobj_forumid', $collapseobj_forumid);
                $templater->register('forum', $forum);
                $templater->register('forumid', $forumid);
                $templater->register('parent_is_category', $parent_is_category);
                
            $forumbits .= $templater->render(); 


hook work good but show dup temp

Well, what I was thinking was that your plugin would not render a template but would change $tempext so that the template name was changed. Like maybe:

PHP Code:

if ($depth == 2 && $tempext == '_post')
{
   $tempext = '_post_custom';
} 


Then your new template would be named forumhome_forumbit_level2_post_custom.

Why wouldn't you just update the contents of that template with your own template code..

I want
if (in_array ($ forum ['forumid'], '5,6,7,8'))

forumids 5,6,7,8 then show it to the temp custom, while others still show forumid default temp vbb

PHP Code:

$forumids = explode(',', '5,6,7,8');// add vboption after
if (in_array($forum['forumid'], $forumids))
{
    $templater = vB_Template::create("forumhome_forumbit_level2_custom");
        $templater->register('childforumbits', $childforumbits);
        $templater->register('collapseimg_forumid', $collapseimg_forumid);
        $templater->register('collapseobj_forumid', $collapseobj_forumid);
        $templater->register('forum', $forum);
        $templater->register('forumid', $forumid);
        $templater->register('parent_is_category', $parent_is_category);
    $forumbits .= $templater->render();
}

Try using only this code:

PHP Code:

$forumids = explode(',', '5,6,7,8');// add vboption after
if (in_array($forum['forumid'], $forumids))
{
   if ($depth == 2 && $tempext == '_post')
   {
      $tempext = '_post_custom';
   }  
}
