Custom WOL for a Specific Mod

[evenmonkeys]

I'm trying to figure out a way to create a WOL option for a modification that already exists: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=92203

Dream made a plugin that just tells "index.php?page=example" to look for a template called "page_example" and displays it. I would like to make a WOL that instead of saying the user is viewing the "Forum Index," but that they're viewing the "Example" page.

If anyone could help, let me know. Thanks!

This article has a section on adding a custom location: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=228112

Edit: that's a vb4 article, but the location code will probably work in vb3.

Does that still work the same way for existing locations? For instance, "index.php" already points to "Viewing Forum Index." Can I force "index.php?page=something" to point to "Viewing Something Page?"

It might. It doesn't look like index.php is handled in the existing code, so you should be able to check for $filename == 'index.php' and then use $values['page'] to check for the page.

Edit: Oh, I see you're saying it already says something for index.php. That's strange because I can't see where that's handled. So I'm not sure, but you could try to create a plugin that checks for index.php and see what happens.

OK, now I see why I missed it. The code uses $vbulletin->options['forumhome'] instead of using 'index.php' as a constant. So you're right, what's in that article won't work because index.php is already handled. But what I think you can do is create another plugin using hook online_location_preprocess and change $filename to something else, like:

if ($filename == 'index.php' AND isset($values['page']))
{
    $filename = 'custom_page_wrapper';
}

then in the other plugins, check $filename for that value.

Or you could add the page name in the above plugin code like:

if ($filename == 'index.php' AND isset($values['page']))
{
    $filename = 'custom_page_wrapper_' . $values['page'];
}

Then in the other plugins you only need to look at $filename and not $values['page'].

Ohhhhh. Very nice! Thank you! I didn't think about checking another condition.
