need help creating a install.php

[Dep]

Hello im am trying to make a install files where is will install all my added templates into vbulletin.

I have a number of templates i have added and wish to create an easy backup file, for whenever i have a update version of vb to install or im just adding a new style.

many thanks for any tips that will help me on my way.

you can take a look at different hacks released, they all have some kind of install script that add templates to the system...

<?php

error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE);

define('CVS_REVISION', '$RCSfile: install_templates.php,v $ - $Revision: 1.35 $');
define('NO_REGISTER_GLOBALS', 1);

// #################### PRE-CACHE TEMPLATES AND DATA ######################
$phrasegroups = array();
$specialtemplates = array();

require_once('./global.php');
require_once('./includes/adminfunctions_template.php');

print_cp_header("Template Installation Script");

// welcome step
if (!isset($_POST['do']))
{
    print_form_header('install_templates', 'stepone');
    print_table_header("Template Installation Script");
    print_description_row("This installation script comprises of the following steps:<p>
    <li>New template additions</li><p>
    Click on \"Add Templates\" to begin the installation.");
    print_submit_row("Add Templates", 0);
    
}

// #############################################################################
// step 1
if ($_POST['do'] == "stepone")
{

$styleid=$vboptions['styleid'];
$template = array();

$template[1]['title'] = 'adv_portal_test';
$template[1]['template'] = '<table align="center" border="0" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" class="tborder" width="100%">

<td class="tcat">

<br />';

$template[2]['title'] = 'adv_portal_test2';
$template[2]['template'] = '<table align="center" border="0" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" class="tborder" width="100%">

That's the basics. You need a function of course to loop through the array and insert the info

o.O how do i go about adding that plz

[Dep]

k added some more code at the end.

i have also tested it and noticed it only added the templates to 1 style how do i make it add to all styles

PHP Code:

foreach ($template as $temp){
    $title = stripslashes($temp['title']);
    $template = stripslashes($temp['template']);
    
    $template_un = $template;
    $template = compile_template($template);
    

    if (!$preexists = $DB_site->query_first("SELECT templateid FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "template WHERE title = '" . addslashes($title) . "' AND styleid = $styleid"))
    {
        $result = $DB_site->query("
            INSERT INTO " . TABLE_PREFIX . "template
                (styleid, title, template, template_un, dateline, username, version)
            VALUES
                ($styleid,
                '" . addslashes("$title") . "',
                '" . addslashes("$template") . "',
                '" . addslashes("$template_un") . "',
                " . TIMENOW . ",
                '" . addslashes($bbuserinfo['username']) . "',
                '" . addslashes($vboptions['templateversion']) . "')
        ");
    }

    
}

    build_all_styles();
    print_form_header('install_templates', 'steptwo');
    print_table_header("Templates Installation Script");
    print_description_row("New templates added to styleid <b>$styleid</b><p>Click on \"Next\" to continue.");
    print_submit_row("Next", 0);
}
// #############################################################################
// step 2
if ($_POST['do'] == "steptwo")
{
    print_form_header('install_templates', '');
    print_table_header("Template Installation Script");
    print_description_row("Installation complete!<br><b>PLEASE DELETE THIS FILE!</b>");

}

?>
