Pm Datamanager

Ok reviving this after a day cuz Im stumped, utterly. This sends the PM great, fine it works. However, IT DOES NOT indicate to the user that they have a new PM on forumhome. You basically have to open up your USERCP -- > Private Messages or whathaveyou in order to see the PM. Basically it doesnt update the pmtotal and pmunread fields. I've been at it all day, and just don't understand

PHP Code:

global $vbulletin, $vbphrase;
$vbphrase = init_language();
        
$pmbody = construct_phrase($vbphrase['sendpm_on_p_alertpm']);

$pmdm =& datamanager_init('PM', $vbulletin, ERRTYPE_ARRAY);
$pmdm->set('fromuserid', $vbulletin->options['sendpm_on_fromuserid']);
$pmdm->set('fromusername', $vbulletin->options['sendpm_on_fromusername']);
$pmdm->set('title', $vbulletin->options['sendpm_on_subject']);
$pmdm->set('message', $pmbody);
$pmdm->set_recipients($user['username'], $botpermissions);
$pmdm->set('dateline', TIMENOW);
$pmdm->save();

Where are you running this code?

[paul41598]

paidsub_build actually, which there in might be the problem. You can see by my code that in order for the phrases to actually work, I had to initiate the language there. Its very hard to work within that plugin, lol

You need to make sure print_output is being called somewhere, as those fields (pmunread and pmtotal) are updated via a shutdown query.

I remember bashing my head on the desk for a while on that one (shutdown query) last year...

[paul41598]

hmmm, print_output as in for fetching a template? What if Im not using any?

[Adrian Schneider]

Call the exec_shut_down() function
