Hi,

I am looking to add a plugin in infraction.php. What I want to do is when an infraction is given to alter the 'credits' column (it is a custom column) in the user table of the user that is receiving the infraction. For example: user foo receives an infraction, and when he receives this infraction the plugin with do something like:

PHP Code:


			
SET credits = credits-X

Now I have scoured the infraction.php file and I cannot find a where I could add this. I am not a programmer so please bear with me. Is there an appropriate hook where this would work?

Thanks in advance,
Ian

EDIT: tried to post infraction.php in [php] tags but it made my msg too long to post.

I'm not real familiar with the infraction system, but I think you would add it using the datamanager somewhere in the do=update area of that page. If you aren't a programmer, it may be a bit more involved than you though. The best way to do this is with the datamanager. But, first you need to add the field you added to the database to the validfields for the user datamanager - in class_dm_user.php. Then you would set the info for that field using the datamanager (maybe using the hookinfraction_update_start ?). There are articles on the datamanager that you may want to check out.

Hi Lynne, thanks for your reply.

Unfortunately serialized data is indeed over my head. Is there anyway i could just add a query in do=update at infraction_verify_permissions maybe? Like: UPDATE user SET credits = credits-1 WHERE userid = *the poster* Sorry if this is a stupid question, I can plug my way around VB sometimes but I am def not a programmer.

If not I will prob have to just post in the paid services forum

--------------- Added [DATE]1249744761[/DATE] at [TIME]1249744761[/TIME] ---------------

Ok so I have this kind of working. I added this plugin at infraction_update_complete:

PHP Code:


			
$db->query_write("UPDATE " . TABLE_PREFIX . "user SET credits = credits-1 WHERE userid = $userinfo[userid]");

And it works like I want it to, it takes away one "credit" from the poster receiving the infraction.

Now to expland on it a bit I wanted to wrap the query in an if condition: if the post is in forumid x, y or z then take away the point, if in any other forum do nothing.

Can someone point me in the right direction to make this happen?

Lynne · #4 08-08-2009, 03:30 PM

Have you tried $foruminfo['forumid']?

PHP Code:


			
if (in_array($foruminfo['forumid'],array(x,y)))
{
do stuff
}

If that doesn't work, try one of these:

Code:

$forumid
$forum['forumid']
$foruminfo['forumid']
$thread['forumid']
$threadinfo['forumid']
$GLOBALS['forumid']

neverstop · #5 08-08-2009, 07:41 PM

I saw $threadinfo['forumid'] first in infraction.php first so tried it and low and behold it worked!

Thanks Lynne! You're always so helpful!

OK how about this one... I want to disable the PM users receive if they get an infraction in forums x, y and z

Here is the chunk of code I think that handles the PM:

PHP Code:


			
    if ($show['pm'])
    {
        if (empty($vbulletin->GPC['message']) AND $vbulletin->options['uimessage'] AND !$nocontact)
        {
            $errors[] = 'nomessagetouser';
        }

        $pm['message'] =& $vbulletin->GPC['message'];
        $pm['parseurl'] =& $vbulletin->GPC['parseurl'];
        $pm['savecopy'] =& $vbulletin->GPC['savecopy'];
        $pm['signature'] =& $vbulletin->GPC['signature'];
        $pm['disablesmilies'] =& $vbulletin->GPC['disablesmilies'];
        $pm['receipt'] =& $vbulletin->GPC['receipt'];
        $pm['iconid'] =& $vbulletin->GPC['iconid'];

        // *************************************************************
        // PROCESS THE MESSAGE AND INSERT IT INTO THE DATABASE

        if ($vbulletin->userinfo['pmtotal'] >= $permissions['pmquota'])
        {
            $pm['savecopy'] = false;
        }

        $infraction = array(
            'username' => unhtmlspecialchars($userinfo['username']),
            'reason'   => ($infractionlevel['infractionlevelid']) ? fetch_phrase('infractionlevel' . $infractionlevel['infractionlevelid'] . '_title', 'infractionlevel', '', true, true, $userinfo['languageid']) : $vbulletin->GPC['customreason'],
            'message'  => fetch_censored_text($pm['message']),
            'points'   => $infdata->fetch_field('points')
        );

        $emailsubphrase = ($infraction['points'] > 0) ? 'infraction_received' : 'warning_received';

        // if we have a specific post we can link to, link to it in the PM
        if (!empty($postinfo))
        {
            if ($vbulletin->options['privallowbbcode'])
            {
                $infraction['post'] = '[post]' . $postinfo['postid'] . '[/post]';
            }
            else
            {
                $infraction['post'] = $vbulletin->options['bburl'] . "/showthread.php?p=$postinfo[postid]#post$postinfo[postid]";
            }
            $emailphrase = $emailsubphrase . '_post';
            $infraction['pagetext'] =& $postinfo['pagetext'];
        }
        else
        {
            $infraction['post'] = '';
            $emailphrase = $emailsubphrase . '_profile';
        }

        eval(fetch_email_phrases($emailphrase, $userinfo['languageid'], $emailsubphrase));

        if (empty($message) OR empty($subject))
        {
            $errors[] = array('problem_with_x_phrase', $emailphrase);
        }

        // create the DM to do error checking and insert the new PM
        $pmdm =& datamanager_init('PM', $vbulletin, ERRTYPE_ARRAY);

        if (!empty($errors))
        {
            foreach ($errors AS $error)
            {
                $pmdm->error($error);
            }
        }

        $pmdm->set_info('savecopy',   $pm['savecopy']);
        $pmdm->set_info('receipt',    $pm['receipt']);
        $pmdm->set_info('cantrackpm', $cantrackpm);
        $pmdm->set_info('is_automated', true); // implies overridequota
        $pmdm->set('fromuserid', $vbulletin->userinfo['userid']);
        $pmdm->set('fromusername', $vbulletin->userinfo['username']);
        $pmdm->setr('title', $subject);
        $pmdm->set_recipients(unhtmlspecialchars($userinfo['username']), $permissions);
        $pmdm->setr('message', $message);
        $pmdm->setr('iconid', $pm['iconid']);
        $pmdm->set('dateline', TIMENOW);
        $pmdm->setr('showsignature', $pm['signature']);
        $pmdm->set('allowsmilie', $pm['disablesmilies'] ? 0 : 1);

        ($hook = vBulletinHook::fetch_hook('private_insertpm_process')) ? eval($hook) : false;

        $pmdm->pre_save();

        if (!empty($pmdm->errors))
        {
            define('PMPREVIEW', 1);
            $preview = construct_errors($pmdm->errors); // this will take the preview's place
        }
        else if ($vbulletin->GPC['preview'] != '')
        {
            define('PMPREVIEW', 1);
            $old_finfo = $foruminfo;
            $foruminfo = array('forumid' => 'privatemessage');
            $preview = process_post_preview($pm);
            $foruminfo = $old_finfo;
        }
        else
        {
            // everything's good!
            $pmdm->save();
            ($hook = vBulletinHook::fetch_hook('private_insertpm_complete')) ? eval($hook) : false;

            $postmessage =& $vbulletin->GPC['message'];
        }
        unset($pmdm);
    }

Now isn't there a way I can add a plugin at private_insertpm_complete to just completely disable the PM for those three forums?

Lynne · #7 08-10-2009, 03:28 AM

I think you would want to try to use a hook before that part of the code and just set $show['pm'] to false (so it skips that section) if it is in those forums. At least, that is what I would try to do first.

neverstop · #8 08-10-2009, 03:53 AM

PHP Code:


			
if (in_array($threadinfo['forumid'],array(33,29,34,37)))
{
$show['pm'] = false;
}

So I added that plugin to infraction_update_start which is near the start of if ($_POST['do'] == 'update') and it didnt work. I'm sure I am doing something wrong though. This is the chunk of code above the $show['pm'] chunk.

PHP Code:


			
if ($_POST['do'] == 'update')
{
    $vbulletin->input->clean_array_gpc('p', array(
        'infractionlevelid' => TYPE_UINT,
        'warning'           => TYPE_ARRAY_BOOL,
        'note'              => TYPE_STR,
        'message'           => TYPE_STR,
        'iconid'            => TYPE_UINT,
        'wysiwyg'           => TYPE_BOOL,
        'parseurl'          => TYPE_BOOL,
        'signature'         => TYPE_BOOL,
        'disablesmilies'    => TYPE_BOOL,
        'receipt'           => TYPE_BOOL,
        'preview'           => TYPE_STR,
        'savecopy'          => TYPE_BOOL,
        'expires'           => TYPE_UINT,
        'points'            => TYPE_STR, // leave as STR
        'period'            => TYPE_NOHTML,
        'customreason'      => TYPE_STR,
        'banreason'         => TYPE_NOHTML,
    ));

Did you try simply putting $show['pm'] = false; as the plugin to see if changing that variable would even work there? It could be that it is set farther down in the code and gets overwritten prior to it being used in which case you either need to manually modify the code or come up with another way of doing it.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
