[TECK]

thanks c-prompt. i reserve to all the forumbits surprise..
today,.. or tomorrow.

PPN, really nice. is that the site you show me a screenshot of your admin CP?

djsap.. i know about .htaccess... i dont like it. i moded all. install.php, vbulletin.style, etc so when i will go online with i will simply do one install and is done, no custom templates etc.

i made a little system that it allow me to edit the .style file (easier then through templates) then with one click everything is updated.

nakkid, bear in mind that if you update the -1 templateset, all your templates will be deleted when you upgrade. If you don't touch that set, never mind.

i always edit vbulletin.style.. every time i add a new template to that file, i run this script that i added in template.php:

PHP Code:

// ###################### Start add masterset #######################
if ($action=="addmaster") {

  doformheader("template","insertmaster");
  maketableheader("Add master set");
  //makeinputcode("File Name (.style)","filename");
  makedescription("Adding the master set will not delete the custom templates.");
  doformfooter("Save");
}

// ###################### Start insert masterset #######################
if ($HTTP_POST_VARS['action']=="insertmaster") {

  $filename="./vbulletin.style";

  if (file_exists($filename)==0) {
      $styletext="";
  } else {
      $filesize=filesize($filename);
      $filenum=fopen($filename,"r");
      $styletext=fread($filenum,$filesize);
      fclose($filenum);
  }

  if ($styletext=="") {
    echo "<p>Please ensure that the <b>$filename</b> file exists in the current directory.</p>";
    exit;
  }

  $DB_site->query("DELETE FROM template WHERE templatesetid=-1 AND title<>'options'");
  $DB_site->query("DELETE FROM replacement WHERE replacementsetid=-1");

  $stylebits=explode("|||",$styletext);

  list($devnul,$styleversion)=each($stylebits);
  list($devnul,$style[title])=each($stylebits);
  list($devnul,$replacementset[title])=each($stylebits);
  list($devnul,$templateset[title])=each($stylebits);

  // installing master set
  $style[styleid]=-1;
  $style[userselect]=0;
  $style[replacementsetid]=-1;
  $style[templatesetid]=-1;

  // get number of replacements and templates
  list($devnull,$numreplacements)=each($stylebits);
  list($devnull,$numtemplates)=each($stylebits);

  $counter=0;
  while ($counter++<$numreplacements) {
      list($devnull,$findword)=each($stylebits);
      list($devnull,$replaceword)=each($stylebits);
      if (trim($findword)!="") {
          $DB_site->query("INSERT INTO replacement (replacementsetid,findword,replaceword) VALUES ($style[replacementsetid],'".addslashes($findword)."','".addslashes($replaceword)."')");
      }
  }

  $counter=0;
  while ($counter++<$numtemplates) {
      list($devnull,$title)=each($stylebits);
      list($devnull,$template)=each($stylebits);
      if (trim($title)!="") {
          $DB_site->query("INSERT INTO template (templatesetid,title,template) VALUES ($style[templatesetid],'".addslashes($title)."','".addslashes($template)."')");
      }
  }

  echo "<p>Master set added</p>";
} 


if a new upgrade comes, i simply do a compare with araxis.. between the original 225 template set (not the one i always update) and 226 for example. in this way i see exacly what changes were done in templates.

i think this is the most elegant solution for keeping updated your templates with the new code.

[Admin]

vbulletin.style can't really be compared since the tepmlates in it are not ordered...

[TECK]

so you tell me that the templates in 224 and 225 are not in the same order?? wierd. i thought all they do the devs is to edit that file.. or add at the bottom the code..
