vBExternal v1.6

Well, this doesn't modify any php, nor use a plugin, so i wasn't sure exactly where to stick it

Anyhow, this is a port of the vBExternal for vb 3.0.7, so look at this thread for more information: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...threadid=81943

Enjoy

Nevermind, see page four fix

Change your $page variable to something else.... like $pg.

It disabled another script which i was using in the website:

PHP Code:

      <?PHP
                          

function checkPage($page) {
    //Controle
    if($page=="index") return false;
    $page.=".php";
    return file_exists($page);
}


$page=$_GET['page'];

if(!isset($page) || empty($page)) $page="nl/home";

if(checkPage($page)) include($page.".php");

?>

it is just a page script,but not working anymore when i put:

PHP Code:

<?php
chdir("../../HTML/testforum/");
include('./vBExternal.php'); 
?>

in the head of the index.

Anybody know the reason, and has a solution?

I have tried doing this using the same method posted above for adding the date to latest news output.

                                                                                               
array(
'threadid'     => $Thread['threadid'],
'threadname'   => $Thread['title'],
'postuserid'   => $Thread['postuserid'],
'postusername' => $Thread['postusername'],
'replies'      => vb_number_format($Thread['replycount']),
'views'        => vb_number_format($Thread['views']),
'date'     => vbdate($vbulletin->options['dateformat'], $Thread['dateline']),
'time'     => vbdate($vbulletin->options['timeformat'], $Thread['dateline']), 
'lastposter'   => $Thread['lastposter'],
)

Of course I changed News to Thread, still cannot get it to work.

Fixed.

hmm ... it shows up the latest posts/thread even from private boards ... any way to exclude board IDs?

[gyutae]

does this hack work with the vbseo hack? Does anyone know how to use vbexternal with rewrites?

[hitmanuk2k]

I would like the number of views on the news articles one (I list them a bit differently and have a read more button which links to the threads...). So how would I do that?

[hitmanuk2k]

Forget that it was easy. Just needed to add

								'views'        => vb_number_format($News['views']),

hi,

when i wanted to display the users online i received a database error called:

Fatal error: Call to a member function unlock_tables() on a non-object in /srv/www/htdocs/***/html/forum/includes/functions.php on line 4366

Fatal error: Call to a member function unlock_tables() on a non-object in /srv/www/htdocs/***/html/forum/includes/functions.php on line 4366

what's the mistake?

QUESTION:

Is it possible, on the news, to link to the showpost.php for that individual post, as opposed to the showthread.php?
