New Posting Features - CES [Anything] BB-Code

CES [Anything] BB-Code
Version: 1.1.1

Requires: Advanced BB-Code Permissions (3.0 or higher) - by Abe1

- If you are using Advanced BB-Code Permissions 2.1, you NEED to upgrade to 3.0! Version 2.1 does not create the permissions correctly in 3.6.x.

*** NEWS ***
3/23/2007 - v1.1.0, v1.1.1 released
3/22/2007 - v1.0.0 released

Known Issues:
- none

What It Does:
This can theoretically be an all-purpose BB-Code. This allows you to parse portions of posts as vBulletin templates. For example, you could use <if> conditionals, variables (e.g. $bbuserinfo, $vboptions, $vbphrase), HTML (!).

WARNING:
Because of the potential power of this BB-Code, the Advanced BB-Code Permissions hack is REQUIRED before you install this. Forum members you trust (i.e. Admins and anyone else who can_admin_templates() ) should be the only ones you give permission to use this BB-Code. Make sure you set ALL Usergroups to use Advanced Permissions before installing this.

Mod Features:
- fully automated custom BB-Code install
- uses its own BB-Code handler function
- use <if> conditionals, variables, etc in posted content

Just installed on 3.6.5 and solved so many issues I was having with other hacks. Now that I have a variable to use, I can accomplish what I'm trying to do.

Thanks!

Well I guess I spoke too soon. I'm having some parsing issues on pages that contain multiple entries. It will parse the first two fine, but after that it goes south and only parses the first and last.
Let me explain:

If there is only two entries on a page it parses them fine. But when you add more (let's say there are five) it ends up like this:

Newest(5th): Parsed
4th : Not Parsed (just text version of code)
3rd : Not Parsed (just text version of code)
2nd : Not Parsed (just text version of code)
1st : Parsed

Anyone else experienced anything like this?

[thincom2000]

Strangely enough I am not experiencing this. I will compare the version available here with my current version and get back to you.

We seem to be using the same version of this mod. I'm currently running vBulletin 3.6.7, and there have been some updates to class_bbcode.php since 3.6.5. Maybe there was a bug earlier. Also make sure you are running the latest build of Advanced BB-Code Permissions... this mod says it only requires 3.0, but I am running 4.0 beta, which you can find somewhere in that thread.

If you still experience issues, please clarify your problem. Are all uses of [anything] in the same post? Are they across multiple posts? Are all these posts by the same user / usergroup?

Thanks.
