I start for about 25 years with an TI and learned Basic. Next was an Commodere 64, Amiga. On Amiga I learned Assembler and wrote some Games. Many years later again, I learned myself (without book ...) php,html and javascript. Then I wrote some small

Since vB4 is out, there are 2 new unfinished settings. At this moment those settings aren't used by vB4. I've asked in the bugtracker, but get no answer 'bout this.
I wrote my own solution to finish up those 2 settings and hope that this will be implemented in one of the next versions. I've attached a image to, see what I mean.

Ok, let's start (remember: this is a beta solution).

1st extend the database

ALTER TABLE `vb4_setting` CHANGE `datatype` `datatype` ENUM( 'free', 'number', 'boolean', 'bitfield', 'username', 'integer', 'posint', 'arrayinteger', 'arrayfree' ) CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_general_ci NOT NULL DEFAULT 'free'

2nd create two new GLOBAL phrases

title = datatype_arrayinteger
phrase = Array Integer
title = datatype_arrayfree
phrase = Array Free

The next parts is to change 3 files:
open admincp/options.php
search for:

PHP Code:


			
        case 'username':

            $checked= array('username' => ' checked="checked"');

            break;

add below:

PHP Code:


			
        case 'arrayinteger':

            $checked= array('arrayinteger' => ' checked="checked"');

            break;

        case 'arrayfree':

            $checked= array('arrayfree' => ' checked="checked"');

            break;

search for:

PHP Code:


			
<label for="rb_dt_username"><input type="radio" name="datatype" id="rb_dt_username" tabindex="1" value="username"' . $checked['username'] . ' />' . $vbphrase['datatype_username'] . '</label>

add below:

PHP Code:


			
        <label for="rb_dt_arrayinteger"><input type="radio" name="datatype" id="rb_dt_arrayinteger" tabindex="1" value="arrayinteger"' . $checked['arrayinteger'] . ' />' . $vbphrase['datatype_arrayinteger'] . '</label>

        <label for="rb_dt_arrayfree"><input type="radio" name="datatype" id="rb_dt_arrayfree" tabindex="1" value="arrayfree"' . $checked['arrayfree'] . ' />' . $vbphrase['datatype_arrayfree'] . '</label>

search for:

PHP Code:


			
    if (is_demo_mode())

    {

        print_cp_message('This function is disabled within demo mode');

    }



    $db->query_write("

        UPDATE " . TABLE_PREFIX . "setting SET

            grouptitle = '" . $db->escape_string($vbulletin->GPC['grouptitle']) . "',

            optioncode = '" . $db->escape_string($vbulletin->GPC['optioncode']) . "',

            defaultvalue = '" . $db->escape_string($vbulletin->GPC['defaultvalue']) . "',

            displayorder = " . $vbulletin->GPC['displayorder'] . ",

and change it into:

PHP Code:


			
    if (is_demo_mode())

    {

        print_cp_message('This function is disabled within demo mode');

    }



    if ($vbulletin->GPC['datatype'] == 'arrayinteger' OR $vbulletin->GPC['datatype'] == 'arrayfree')

    {

        $store = array ();

        if (is_array (explode (',', $vbulletin->GPC['defaultvalue'])))

        {

            foreach (explode (',', $vbulletin->GPC['defaultvalue']) as $key => $val)

            {

                $store[] = $val;

            }

        }

        $vbulletin->GPC['defaultvalue'] = serialize ($store);

        $vbulletin->GPC['value'] = serialize ($store);

    }



    $db->query_write("

        UPDATE " . TABLE_PREFIX . "setting SET

            defaultvalue = '" . $db->escape_string($vbulletin->GPC['defaultvalue']) . "',

            displayorder = " . $vbulletin->GPC['displayorder'] . ",

search for:

PHP Code:


			
    print_textarea_row($vbphrase['description'], 'description', $setting['description'], 4, '50" style="width:100%');

    print_textarea_row($vbphrase['option_code'], 'optioncode', $setting['optioncode'], 4, '50" style="width:100%');

and add below:

PHP Code:


			
    if ($setting['datatype'] == 'arrayinteger' OR $setting['datatype'] == 'arrayfree')

    {

        $store = unserialize ($setting['defaultvalue']);

        $setting['defaultvalue'] = (is_array ($store) ? implode (',', $store) : '');

    }

next is to open includes/adminfunctions_options.php
search for:

            {

                print_select_row($description, $name . '[]', $options, $setting['value'], false, 5, true);

            }

            else

            {

                print_input_row($description, $name, $setting['value']);

            }

        }

        break;

and change it into:

PHP Code:


			
        // select:eval

        case 'selectmulti:eval':

        {

            $options = null;



            eval($setting['optiondata']);



            if (is_array($options) AND !empty($options))

            {

                $setting['value'] = unserialize($setting['value']);

                $setting['value'] = (is_array($setting['value']) ? $setting['value'] : array());

                print_select_row($description, $name . '[]', $options, $setting['value'], false, 5, true);

            }

            else

            {

                print_input_row($description, $name, $setting['value']);

            }

        }

        break;

search for:

        case 'arrayinteger':

            $key = array_keys($value);

            $size = sizeOf($key);

            for ($i = 0; $i < $size; $i++)

            {

                $value[$key[$i]] = intval($value[$key[$i]]);

            }

            break;



        case 'arrayfree':

            $key = array_keys($value);

            $size = sizeOf($key);

            for ($i = 0; $i < $size; $i++)

            {

                $value[$key[$i]] = trim($value[$key[$i]]);

            }

            break;

and change those lines into:

PHP Code:


			
        case 'arrayinteger':

            if (!is_array ($value))

            {

                $value = unserialize($value);

                $value = (is_array($value) ? $value : array());

            {

                $value[$key[$i]] = trim($value[$key[$i]]);

            }

            $value = serialize ($value);

next, open includes/adminfunctions_plugin.php
search for:

                {

                    $newvalue = $vbulletin->options["$setting[varname]"];

                }

                else

                {

                    $newvalue = $setting['defaultvalue'];

                }

and add above:

PHP Code:


			
                if (trim ($setting['datatype']) == 'arrayinteger' OR trim ($setting['datatype']) == 'arrayfree')

                {

                    $store = array ();

                    if (is_array (explode (',', trim ($setting['defaultvalue']))))

                    {

                        foreach (explode (',', trim ($setting['defaultvalue'])) AS $value)

                        {

                            $store[] = $value;

                        }                        

                    }

                    $setting['defaultvalue'] = serialize ($store);

                }

Ok, with this changes you can have those settings working now.

How to use those options ?
In your product (under the settingsgroup) you can now have two more options:
This is example one:

Quote:

<setting varname="multiinput_choose" displayorder="20">
<datatype>arrayfree</datatype>
<optioncode>multiinput</optioncode>
<defaultvalue>Hello up there,where on the air,it's hockey night tonight</defaultvalue>
</setting>

The optioncode is only multiinput and the datatype MUST be arrayfree or arrayinteger.

The next example is selectmulti:eval

Quote:

<setting varname="multiselect_choose" displayorder="10">
<datatype>arrayinteger</datatype>
<optioncode>selectmulti:eval
$options = array (
'0' => 'you can choose what you want',
'1' => 'this is a multiselect field',
'2' => 'choose one or more',
'3' => 'option if you like',
'4' => 'this option wont work',
'5' => 'in a standard',
'6' => 'vBulletin 4.0.1',
); </optioncode>
<defaultvalue>1,3,4</defaultvalue>
</setting>

Here also you have to use arrayfree or arrayinteger. Others won't work !

I really hope, that those options are available in a further version of vB4.

I forgott to tell you, how to use those settings in you mod.

For both options, you will get back an array (serialized). First unserialized the value

PHP Code:


			
// unserialized the value

$vbulletin->options['multiinput_choose'] = unserialized ($vbulletin-options['multiinput_choose']);

// unserialized the value

And next is to check the array.

PHP Code:


			
if (in_array ('findme', $vbulletin->option['multiinput_choose']))

{

 // I found "findme"

 // ... let's do some code

}

This is to finish an incomplete implementation of the 'arrayinteger' and 'arrayfree' option data types. It's vB 4.1.5 now and this still is not finished in the core. Absolutely ridiculous.
