        $threadman->set('custom field', $custom field);
        $threadman->save(); 


and hook threaddata_start but not work

I'm not sure what you're trying to do, but if you put that code at hook threaddata_start then you're creating a Thread datamanager in the Thread datamanager constructor, which isn't good.

What are you doing, adding a field to the thread creation page, then trying to get the value to the database when the thread is created?

Sory, I confused, i have hook code to hook misc_start

        $threadman =& datamanager_init('Thread', $vbulletin, ERRTYPE_STANDARD, 'threadpost');
        $threadman->set_existing($threadinfo); 
        $threadman->set('custom_field', $custom_field);
        $threadman->save();

and hook threaddata_start with code:

$this->validfields['custom_field'] = array(TYPE_INI, REQ_NO);

Now, i have create temp with link to update custom field. No error when click link but database not update. ???

P/S: I do not want use

UPDATE " . TABLE_PREFIX . "thread
.....

Try replacing all instances of "custom field" with "custom_field"...you cannot have spaces embedded in variable names.

, That is just an example.

Hmm...ok. Well, there is no TYPE_INI, maybe you mean TYPE_INT. But I don't know if that would stop it from working. Are you sure $threadinfo is set? You might have to set that yourself. Or it might be enough to just do something like

$threadman->set_existing(array('threadid' => $threadid));

if you just have the threadid.
