Gah! Hacking woes...

Ok, I have myself stuck again, here is what I have:

In functions.php

PHP Code:

        if ($post['showpet']!="0") {
            eval("\$post[petbit] = \"".gettemplate("petbit")."\";");
        } else {
            $post[showpet] = " ";
        } 

Along with all the rest of my pet hack stuff - I've added ^^^ that stuff above it.

Then I have added a new template called petbit and posted what was previously in the postbit tempate into it.

Then I have added $post[showpet] into the postbit.

I also have a new field in the user CP called showpet and in that I have "0"....

What should happen is it should see that showpet is set to 0 and then show the petbit... but it doesnt, it shows nothing.

Then if I change whats in the showpet field to 1 - it shows the one (when its set to 0 it shows nothing)

Any ideas what the problem is?

Can members change this value?

They will be able to yes.

Edit that - they cant edit it directly - it will either be "0" or "1"

[geniuscrew]

Like I said, see if

changing

PHP Code:

if ($post['showpet']!="0") { 

to

PHP Code:

if ($post['showpet']!=="0") { 

does anything.

Knowing me, it probably won't lol

Shouldn't that be?

PHP Code:

if ($post['showpet']!=0) {
            eval("\$post[petbit] = \"".gettemplate("petbit")."\";");
        } else {
            $$post[petbit] = "";
        }

ok, here's an update on the problem...

I have it storing a 0 or a 1 into the database now, which is good..

then i use $post[petbit]

it should show the template called petbit - thats goin on this bit of code:

PHP Code:

        if ($post['showpet']!=="0") {
            eval("\$post['petbit'] = \"".gettemplate("petbit")."\";");
        } else {
            $post[showpet] = "";
        } 

However, it either shows nothing when the user has it on "yes" (0) or a 1 when they have it on "no" (1)

Any ideas?

Did you try the code I posted above?

[Ember]

PHP Code:

        if ($post[showpet]!=0) {
            eval("\$post[petbit] = \"".gettemplate("petbit")."\";");
        } else {
            $post[showpet] = "";
        } 

Thats what I have now - still isnt working... :'(

After removing the extra $ - I now have it displaying a "0" if they have selected "yes" and a "1" if they have selected "no".... so how can I get it to include the petbit template if its a "0" and nothing if its a "1"???
