Insert Thread into database.

[Killa878]

Hello all,

im trying to create a PHP Function that will add a thread to the forums.
This is what i got must its not working:

	private function MakeThread( $ForumId, $Title, $Content )
	{
		mysql_query( "INSERT INTO `thread` (`threadid`,`title`,`prefixid`,`firstpostid`,`lastpostid`,`lastpost`,`forumid`,`pollid`,`open`,`replycount`,`hiddencount`,`deletedcount`,`postusername`,`postuserid`,`lastposter`,`dateline`,`lastedit`,`views`,`iconid`,`notes`,`visible`,`sticky`,`votenum`,`votetotal`,`attach`,`similar`,`taglist`,`vbseo_linkbacks_no`,`lastposterid`,`keywords`,`wrdate`) VALUES (NULL, '". mysql_real_escape_string($Title) ."', '', '0', '0', '". $ForumId ."', '0', '0', '0', '0', '0', '". $this->UserData['username'] ."', '". $this->UserData['userid'] ."', '". $this->UserData['username'] ."', '". SCRIPT_TIME ."', '0', '0', '', '0', '', '1', '0', '0', '0', '0', '0', '0', '". $this->UserData['userid'] ."', '0', '0')"  ) or die( "Q1: " . mysql_error( ) );
				
		// Get the inserted thread ID
		$ThreadID = mysql_insert_id( );

		mysql_query( "INSERT INTO 'post` (`postid`,`threadid`,`parentid`,`username`,`userid`,`title`,`dateline`,`lastedit`,`pagetext`,`allowsmilie`,`showsignature`,`ipaddress`,`iconid`,`visible`,`attach`,`infraction`,`reportthreadid`,`htmlstate`) VALUES (NULL, '". $ThreadID ."', '0', '". $this->UserData['username'] ."', '". $this->UserData['userid'] ."', '', '". SCRIPT_TIME ."', '', '" . $Content . "', '0', '0', '". $this->UserIP ."', '0', '1', '0', '0', '0', 'on_nl2br')" ) or die( "Q2: " . mysql_error( ) );

		$PostID = mysql_insert_id( );

		mysql_query( "UPDATE `thread` SET `firstpostid` = " . $PostID . ", `lastpostid` = " . $PostID . " WHERE `threadid` = " . $ThreadID . " LIMIT 1" );
	}

All the vars such as UserData and Username is ok. As they are stored within the class.

At this point no thread is being made.

Thanks

I'm not sure, but if I'm counting right it looks like maybe you're not setting 'visible' to 1 (it looks like you're setting 'sticky' to 1 so probably something's off by one).

Hmm. i checked into the database and there wasnt any new inserted rows with anything that i created.

I counted and it looks correct.

I count 31 columns and 30 values, again unless I'm screwing up somehow. I pasted it into phpmyadmin, changed the vars to constants, and I got a "value count doesn't match" or something like that (the first query, I mean).

But I don't know why you wouldn't see any error messages. Here's a stupid question - are you sure that's even getting called?

Check out my "New Thread on User Banning" mod- it makes a new thread.

Here's a copy of the code to make a new thread... I got it off a tutorial somewhere around here that was for 3.x but the code is the same.

$bop5onban_fid = 2; //Forum ID for new thread

//Set new thread details...

$banthread =& datamanager_init('Thread_FirstPost', $vbulletin, ERRTYPE_ARRAY, 'threadpost');
$foruminfo = fetch_foruminfo($bop5onban_fid);
$threadinfo = array();    
$forumid = $bop5onban_fid;

//Set some thread/post settings
$bop5postip = "127.0.0.1";
$bop5allowsmilie = '1';
$bop5visible = 1;

$banthread->set_info('forum', $foruminfo);
$banthread->set_info('thread', $threadinfo);
$banthread->setr('forumid', $forumid);
$banthread->setr('userid', $bop5onban_uid);
$banthread->setr('pagetext', $bop5onban_text); 
$banthread->setr('title', $bop5onban_title);
$banthread->set('iconid', $vbulletin->options['bop5onban_icon']);
$banthread->set('allowsmilie', $bop5allowsmilie);
$banthread->set('visible', $bop5visible);
$banthread->set('ipaddress', $bop5postip);
$banthread->set('showsignature', $vbulletin->options['bop5onban_sig']);

$banthread->pre_save();
if(count($banthread->errors) < 1)
{
    $threadid = $banthread->save();
    unset($banthread);
    build_thread_counters($banthread);
}
else 
{
    print "Error making new thread! " . $banthread->errors[0] . $banthread->errors[1] . $banthread->errors[2] ;
}

 build_forum_counters($forumid);

// end make thread code
