I have a plugin running on the fetch_musername hook that changes the username mark-up depending on a selection in their profile.

The plugin is:

PHP Code:


			
if((!empty($user['field14'])) && ($user['displaygroupid'] == 40)){
    switch($user['field14']){
    case 'Ice Blue':
    $user['musername'] = "<span style=\"color:#74BBFB; font-weight:bold;\">".$user['username']."</span>";
    break;
    case 'Tree Green':
    $user['musername'] = "<span style=\"color:#9CDE7B; font-weight:bold;\">".$user['username']."</span>";
    break;
    case 'Orange':
    $user['musername'] = "<span style=\"color:#F38330; font-weight:bold;\">".$user['username']."</span>";
    break;
    case 'Pink':
    $user['musername'] = "<span style=\"color:#EA3884; font-weight:bold;\">".$user['username']."</span>";
    break;
    case 'Purple':
    $user['musername'] = "<span style=\"color:#B290C0; font-weight:bold;\">".$user['username']."</span>";
    break;
    }
}

Now, this plugin works around some areas (profile, posts) but it fails to work on things like visitor messaging and the who's online display block.

Has anyone got any ideas how to fix this?

I'd take a guess that it's because I'm using the $user variable, that isn't globally available... so perhaps I would have to change the conditional too...

Would I have to declare the $post['fieldX'] and $bbuserinfo['fieldX'] in there too?

EDIT: I tried this code too, and it failed to work:

PHP Code:


			
if((!empty($user['field14'])) && ($user['displaygroupid'] == 40)){
    switch($user['field14']){
        case 'Ice Blue':
        $user['musername'] = "<span style=\"color:#74BBFB; font-weight:bold;\">".$user['username']."</span>";
        break;
        case 'Tree Green':
        $user['musername'] = "<span style=\"color:#9CDE7B; font-weight:bold;\">".$user['username']."</span>";
        break;
        case 'Orange':
        $user['musername'] = "<span style=\"color:#F38330; font-weight:bold;\">".$user['username']."</span>";
        break;
        case 'Pink':
        $user['musername'] = "<span style=\"color:#EA3884; font-weight:bold;\">".$user['username']."</span>";
        break;
        case 'Purple':
        $user['musername'] = "<span style=\"color:#B290C0; font-weight:bold;\">".$user['username']."</span>";
        break;
    }
    switch($post['field14']){
        case 'Ice Blue':
        $user['musername'] = "<span style=\"color:#74BBFB; font-weight:bold;\">".$user['username']."</span>";
        break;
        case 'Tree Green':
        $user['musername'] = "<span style=\"color:#9CDE7B; font-weight:bold;\">".$user['username']."</span>";
        break;
        case 'Orange':
        $user['musername'] = "<span style=\"color:#F38330; font-weight:bold;\">".$user['username']."</span>";
        break;
        case 'Pink':
        $user['musername'] = "<span style=\"color:#EA3884; font-weight:bold;\">".$user['username']."</span>";
        break;
        case 'Purple':
        $user['musername'] = "<span style=\"color:#B290C0; font-weight:bold;\">".$user['username']."</span>";
        break;
    }
    switch($bbuserinfo['field14']){
        case 'Ice Blue':
        $user['musername'] = "<span style=\"color:#74BBFB; font-weight:bold;\">".$user['username']."</span>";
        break;
        case 'Tree Green':
        $user['musername'] = "<span style=\"color:#9CDE7B; font-weight:bold;\">".$user['username']."</span>";
        break;
        case 'Orange':
        $user['musername'] = "<span style=\"color:#F38330; font-weight:bold;\">".$user['username']."</span>";
        break;
        case 'Pink':
        $user['musername'] = "<span style=\"color:#EA3884; font-weight:bold;\">".$user['username']."</span>";
        break;
        case 'Purple':
        $user['musername'] = "<span style=\"color:#B290C0; font-weight:bold;\">".$user['username']."</span>";
        break;
    }
}

Bump.

Sorry guys, this is something I've been looking at for ages and I can't debug it

BirdOPrey5 · #2 07-10-2010, 10:10 PM

$bbuserinfo is global so it should work anywhere... My guess is in the locations it's not working is because the hook isn't called.

James Birkett · #3 07-11-2010, 09:03 AM

I've got debug mode on and the hook is called on Forumdisplay and on visitor messages and there's still no change.

I can't use bbuserinfo in the condition because I need to use $user to grab the profile field.

BirdOPrey5 · #4 07-11-2010, 02:30 PM

$bbuserinfo['filedX'] should pull the profile field X for that user.

James Birkett · #5 07-11-2010, 03:54 PM

I removed the conditional, leaving my code as:

PHP Code:


			
if($user['displaygroupid'] == 40){
    switch($user['field14']){
        case 'Ice Blue':
        $user['musername'] = "<span style=\"color:#74BBFB; font-weight:bold;\">".$user['username']."</span>";
        break;
        case 'Tree Green':
        $user['musername'] = "<span style=\"color:#9CDE7B; font-weight:bold;\">".$user['username']."</span>";
        break;
        case 'Orange':
        $user['musername'] = "<span style=\"color:#F38330; font-weight:bold;\">".$user['username']."</span>";
        break;
        case 'Pink':
        $user['musername'] = "<span style=\"color:#EA3884; font-weight:bold;\">".$user['username']."</span>";
        break;
        case 'Purple':
        $user['musername'] = "<span style=\"color:#B290C0; font-weight:bold;\">".$user['username']."</span>";
        break;
    }
    switch($post['field14']){
        case 'Ice Blue':
        $user['musername'] = "<span style=\"color:#74BBFB; font-weight:bold;\">".$user['username']."</span>";
        break;
        case 'Tree Green':
        $user['musername'] = "<span style=\"color:#9CDE7B; font-weight:bold;\">".$user['username']."</span>";
        break;
        case 'Orange':
        $user['musername'] = "<span style=\"color:#F38330; font-weight:bold;\">".$user['username']."</span>";
        break;
        case 'Pink':
        $user['musername'] = "<span style=\"color:#EA3884; font-weight:bold;\">".$user['username']."</span>";
        break;
        case 'Purple':
        $user['musername'] = "<span style=\"color:#B290C0; font-weight:bold;\">".$user['username']."</span>";
        break;
    }
    switch($bbuserinfo['field14']){
        case 'Ice Blue':
        $user['musername'] = "<span style=\"color:#74BBFB; font-weight:bold;\">".$user['username']."</span>";
        break;
        case 'Tree Green':
        $user['musername'] = "<span style=\"color:#9CDE7B; font-weight:bold;\">".$user['username']."</span>";
        break;
        case 'Orange':
        $user['musername'] = "<span style=\"color:#F38330; font-weight:bold;\">".$user['username']."</span>";
        break;
        case 'Pink':
        $user['musername'] = "<span style=\"color:#EA3884; font-weight:bold;\">".$user['username']."</span>";
        break;
        case 'Purple':
        $user['musername'] = "<span style=\"color:#B290C0; font-weight:bold;\">".$user['username']."</span>";
        break;
    }
}

Yet it still doesn't display on forumdisplay, forumhome, visitor messaging etc.

If the $bbuserinfo variable worked, it should work on the switch, yet it doesn't.

BirdOPrey5 · #6 07-11-2010, 04:31 PM

Sorry, I didn't see you tried $bbuserinfo first.

I wish there was a list of variables and where they are available someplace.

James Birkett · #7 07-11-2010, 04:36 PM

Yeah, the debug mode should list the variables being called on that page.

James Birkett · #8 07-12-2010, 09:32 PM

Bump (again).

I'm baffled by this one, can anyone else share an insight.

The hook is being called on all of the pages that I require.

Marco van Herwaarden · #9 07-13-2010, 07:53 AM

Which username on a page like for example forumdisplay would not show?

James Birkett · #10 07-13-2010, 08:13 AM

The username of the user who filled the condition ($user['displaygroupid'] == 40).

I thought I had covered all options by using $post, $user, $bbuserinfo - apparently not!
