PM Data Manager - Parsing BB Code

[Janiv]

I'm trying to automatically create a Private Message and need to formate it. I'm fine doing this with BB Code or HTML but I can't get either to work. I was referred to this two threads:

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=82786
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=82693

And understand what they seem to be saying and have come up with the following code:[PHP]$botpermissions['adminpermissions'] = 2;

$parser =& new vB_BbCodeParser($vbulletin, fetch_tag_list());
$parsed_text = $parser->do_parse("This is a test of parsing text!\n\n[b]Russell[\b]", false, true, true, false, false);

echo($parsed_text);

// create the DM to do error checking and insert the new PM
$pmdm =& datamanager_init('PM', $vbulletin, ERRTYPE_ARRAY);
$pmdm->set('fromuserid', 1);
$pmdm->set('fromusername', 'Admin');
$pmdm->set('title', 'This is a test');
$pmdm->set('message', $parsed_text);
$pmdm->set_recipients('Russell', $botpermissions);
$pmdm->set('dateline', TIMENOW);
$pmdm->set('iconid', 52);

$pmdm->save(); [\PHP]But instead of getting my parsed message formated correctly, this is what the private message looks like:

This is a test of parsing text!<br />
<br />
[b]Russell[\b]

Any ideas?
