The addon system in vBulletin 5 is different and the idea of PHP Plugins embedded in the database should be discarded. You probably will not be able to simply update your existing plugins, you'll need to rewrite how you retrieve information from the API or have your app call the API directly.

Thank you so much for this, sadly your pdf's have more info then the manual for 5.0.4 lol.

Hello,

I tried to write some extension code as your gave pdf document,but when I call the method in template it does not work.

The following is my code:

PHP Code:

class Testzz_Api_Site extends vB_Api_Extensions {
  protected $product = 'zzz';
  protected $developer = 'ttt';
  protected $title = 'test Product';

  protected $minver = '5.0.0';
  protected $maxver = '5.0.99';

  protected $AutoInstall = 1;
  protected $extensionOrder = 10;

  public function testCodeFunc($prev) {
    return '<!-- test package -->';
  }
} 


I called the method in template:

PHP Code:

{vb:data wzttestvar,Testzz_Api_Site, testCodeFunc}
{vb:raw wzttestvar} 


How can I make this work?

And I remembered that there are some xml folder and file need to be maked inside the package folder,should I create xml folder for the extension,but I do not know how to make the xml file for the extention api?

Thanks.


Btw:
I'm Tapatalk Tom Wu,We may need vBulletin official team to give us more guide on the VB5 plugin development,and we may can start more deep technical cooperation with your company.

Any help would be appreciated.

Is there any solutions for it?

Thanks.

Can not get any help from here and official side?
It is disillusionary.

This is a community based site, you might want to ask questions about what isn't working, or what is working, or what exactly is going wrong.

[tapatalk]

Yes,we do not know how to make my extension api work.
Maybe we need at least a full example extension package and detailed document to guide us to completely implement our own extension.

Could you guide us?

And we may can start more deep technical cooperation with your company.

Any help would be appreciated

Thanks.

Have you looked at any of the third party addons?

[tapatalk]

I've studied the default extensions in VB 5,but I still do not know how to make my first extension api work.
Maybe we need a guiding document to tell us the full process for implementing an api extension.

Could you recommend us some third party addons and detailed urls for the first example?

Thanks.

Any updates?

Or could you tell us where to get the addons for vBulletin 5?
