I have made some modifications to the hack by Stasik, which is located here.
New features:

• Edit display order from the list of questions/groups
• Got the display code into templates and out of misc.php
• Removed some extra queries
• Added support for vB Code and fixed support for smilies
• Various small cosmetic/coding fixes

Templates to edit: None.

Instructions: Upload and run faq_install.php from your admin directory. Follow the on-screen directions.

Thanks to Stasik for the great hack!

Kevin you have a serious mistake in your code, which is why no one here manages to parse HTML:

dohtml is $entry[dohtml] in your code. BUT YOU NEVER SELECTED IT

$entries=$DB_site->query("SELECT entryid,title,text FROM faqentries WHERE faqid='$page' ORDER BY showorder");

should be

$entries=$DB_site->query("SELECT * FROM faqentries WHERE faqid='$page' ORDER BY showorder");

(in misc.php)

Cheers,

Bira

you are the best!

I changed the following:

• In every SELCT-Statement in the FAQ-Section from the misc.php I set a Star instead of the different row-names. (Sample: SELECT * FROM faq $sql ORDER BY showorder).
• I use bbcodeparse2.

So the HTML is parsed Good. The Smilies works too. vbCode works all, insted of the [ url ]. This creates a Link like this:
http://usercp.php/?s=

Have anyone a Idea?

And i have another Problem: The Order can't set from the CP. :stupid:

I have the same Problem: The Order can't set from the CP.

I get the Error:

Warning: Variable passed to each() is not an array or object in
/home/sites/site479/web/forum/admin/faq.php on line 344

Order updated!


HTML, Smilies and vbCode works!

Have anyone a Idea?


THX, wolfgang

I did it. And the other SQL-Statement too. I wrote it before...

Or should i turn back the others?

[Lionel]

I made no change except for the one by Bira on post 81 and works fine.

[Psychdrone]

err so hey dose this work with 2.2.1?

[dotagious]

I have the same question about it working for 2.2.1

I also would like to know what this actually does. I tried to follow the link to the original hack as to find out, but it blocks me from that forum.
