Prerequisites to use convert_wysiwyg_html_to_bbcode

[benFF]

Hi guys, Hope you can help me

I've integrated the Wysiwyg editor into Photopost classifieds, with the editing bit working perfectly, but have hit a major snag with the database writing.

Basically when I run the form output through convert_wysiwyg_html_to_bbcode, nothing gets changed and the html isn't converted to BBcode.

No errors are returned, so I'm assuming that perhaps I haven't initialised a variable somewhere - thus my question is simple

Which variables / files need to be included for the convert_wysiwyg_html_to_bbcode function to work properly?

thanks!

Hi buddy,

Yes - that is where I got the starting blocks from, I've included everything I think is needed, but the function just doesn't convert anything on submit (everything else works, showing the form etc etc)

You're probably doing it in the wrong place.

PHP Code:

if($_REQUEST['do'] == 'add')
{
        //Prepare WYSIWYG Editor
        require_once(DIR . '/includes/functions_editor.php');
        $show['wysiwyg'] = ($setting['allow_bbcode'] ? is_wysiwyg_compatible() : 0);
        $istyles_js = construct_editor_styles_js();
        $show['qr_require_click'] = 0;
        $editorid = construct_edit_toolbar('', 0, 'myspiffyeditorname', ($setting['allow_smilies'] ? 1 : 0), 1, false, 'qr');
        $messagearea = "
                <script type=\"text/javascript\">
                <!--
                        var require_click = false;
                        var threaded_mode = 1;
                        var is_last_page = false;
                // -->
                </script>
                $messagearea
        ";
                                                                
        echo '<form enctype="multipart/form-data" action="THISSCRIPT.php"  name="myspiffyeditorform" id="article" method="post" onsubmit="return vB_Editor['.$editorid.'].prepare_submit(0, $vboptions[postminchars]);">
        <div align="center" style="width: 100%">
                '.$messagearea.'
                <input type="hidden" name="securitytoken" value="'.$vbulletin->userinfo[securitytoken].'" />
                <input type="hidden" name="do" value="save" />
                <br /><input type="submit" name="sbutton" value="Save" />
        </div>';
}
else if($_REQUEST['do'] == 'save')
{
        $vbulletin->input->clean_array_gpc('p', array(
                                'wysiwyg'    => TYPE_BOOL,
                                'message'    => TYPE_STR,
        )

        $message = '';

        if($vbulletin->GPC['wysiwyg']) {
                $message = convert_wysiwyg_html_to_bbcode( htmlspecialchars($vbulletin->GPC['message']) );
        } else {
                $message = $vbulletin->GPC['message'];
        }

        $message = $vbulletin->db->escape_string($message);

        //Do some SQL query to save $message into the database
} 


^You need to do something like that.
