Advanced Plugin Manager - Reloaded

Advanced Plugin Manager - Reloaded v2.6

The original Advanced Plugin Manager was written by KirbyDE (found here). He expressed that this was not a release he intended to make into a full-fledged mod, and it also contained some bugs.
When I first saw the thread over at vB.com posted by Live Wire, he had photoshopped the Template Manager to indicate how Products and Plugins could work with this interface. I quite liked the idea, so I decided to make it so.
A week and one permission from Kirby later, I can present to you this Extension.

Features:

• Mimicks the Template Manager in pretty much every sense
• "Flag" Plugins for export/deletion
• Remembers the expanded products indefinetely
• Remembers the "flagged" plugins indefinetely
• Automatically de-flags plugins when they have been exported/deleted.
• Plugins that are subject to a disabled Product are marked as disabled themselves at runtime. Their TRUE state (as stored in the database) remains untouched.
• Mass deletion of "flagged" plugins
• Mass export of "flagged" plugins
• Working "Save & Reload" button (Credits to Kirby for fixing it)
• Shortcut to "Add / Import Product"
• Fully phrased
• NO Code Modifications needed!

Note:
This Extension will require page reloads for pretty much all its actions, as the Template Manager does. If you do not like this, please use Kirby's version.
Kirby does in no way support this version, nor do I support his.
Important! You need to uninstall Kirby's version before installing mine, should you choose my version.

Screenshots attached in 2nd post.

Install instructions:

1. Click install (you want your precious support, don't you? ).
2. Upload the files.
3. Import the Product XML file through your ACP.
4. Enjoy.

Upgrade instructions:

1. Upload all files again.
2. Import new product XML.
3. Enjoy the improvements.

Beautiful. Just beautiful. Hellcat's absolutely right; I can finally turn this on and use it!

[high]* reismarktq2 clicks install [/high]

Maybe now that we know GZIP compression fixes the problem, Revan can figure out what's causing it in the first place!

[Hellcat]

Yeah, hope so.
I'll also dig some deeper into this once I get some spare time.

This is one of the most helpfull "must have" things I know.
I don't install a single board without it.

Any chance the vb 3.6 features will be implemented? Like product's homepage and the version check?

[Revan]

Yer I will update this at some point or another but bit busy atm.

Cool!
No hurry, but nice to know that it will be done

[Revan]

Updated.
I fixed the bug with cookies, I forced GZIP on the page.

Also released 3.6 version here.

[reismarktq2]

Thanks for the update.

/me updates

Two questions:

1. What's changed between this and 2.5?

2. I have some plug-ins on my board that aren't associated with a product. In the manager, these plug-ins are listed before the products. I'd like them to be listed AFTER the products. How can I change this?

* Fixed bug in which GZIP disabled would cause errors. I have forcibly enabled GZIP to circumvent the bug.

Take

PHP Code:

    if (!empty($vbplugin))
    {
        foreach($vbplugin as $plugin)
        {
            if (empty($plugin['devkey']))
            {
                $plugin['devkey'] = 'N/A';
            }
            
            if ($plugin['active'] == 0)
            {
                $class = 'col-c';
                $value2 = 'disabled';
                $value = 'enabled';
            }
            else
            {
                $class = 'col-g';
                $value2 = 'enabled';
                $value = 'enabled';
            }
            
            if ($plugin['flag'] == 1)
            {
                $class = 'col-i';
                $flag = 'enabled';
            }
            else
            {
                $flag = 'disabled';
            }
            
            echo "\t<option class=\"$class\" value=\"~\" product=\"vbulletin\" flag=\"$flag\" i=\"$plugin[executionorder];$plugin[hookname];$plugin[devkey]\" pluginid=\"$plugin[pluginid]\" productactive=\"$value\" pluginactive=\"$value2\"$selected>$plugin[title]</option>\n";
            vbflush();
        }
    } 


and place before

PHP Code:

    echo "</select>\n"; 


*** Untested, but should work. It won't break anything tho (I hope XD) ***

Security issue patched thanks to Alan @ CIT.
An admin with access to plugins and knowledge of the code in advplugins.php could run a malicious URL and cause severe harm to your database.

To update, re-upload admincp/advplugins.php.
