Miscellaneous Hacks - vbPluginOrder

Keywords: plugin, order, hook

Description:
A simple but potentially very useful tool that allows you to set the order of execution for plugins within the same hook.

Features:

• Fully Phrased.
• Set the order of plugin execution within the same hook.

Install

1. Download the vbPluginOrder_1.2.zip file.
2. Unzip and upload the files in the upload directory to your forum root.
3. Import the product file in your admincp.
4. Set the order for your plugins if needed and desired.

Notes:
If you have Hellcat's real time page compressor installed it must be set as the first plugin in its hook after you activate plugin order.

Version 1.2

• Fixed bug causing plugin order not to run on some systems because of cookie settings

Version 1.1

• Fixed nasty sql bug where I forgot to use TABLE_PREFIX for one join. Causes a problem if you have a table prefix (obviously)

You can make one plugin run before another in the same hook. You probably won't need it until you really need it - then you'll be glad I wrote it

Good work. This could be useful since I'm having way too many plugins!

Help me, please!

Invalid SQL:

SELECT p.*, po.`order` FROM trillian_pluginorder AS po
JOIN plugin AS p ON(p.pluginid = po.pluginid)
ORDER BY p.hookname, po.order;

MySQL-Fehler : Table 'trillian_forum.trillian_pluginorder' doesn't exist

Oh no, my forum is down. What can I do? Its urgent! Thanks for your help.

First, disable the product so your forum isn't down.

It sounds like the table didn't get created for some reason when you installed. Can you look at the database and verify if the table 'pluginorder' exists?

[jazde86]

Cool, thanks for your reply.

In my database trillian_forum exists the table trillian_pluginorder

I've disabled the product and the plugin, but nothing has changed.
