vB Bash!

[Link14716]

vB Bash will be a modification that lets you do various things by posting a command in your post (on its own line). I started making this hack last year, but it was later abandoned. I plan on resurrecting it on vB 3.5 now.

Here's basically how a post would look like followed by how the vB Bash code sees it.

    You useless spammer.

    #useroptions -username Stupid User -o usertitle -v Useless Spammer --enable_ct

    Time to finish this job.

    #banuser -username Stupid User
    #deletethread --keepattach -r This thread sucks.



Matches:

Array
(
    [useroptions] => Array
        (
            [param] => Array
                (
                    [username] => Stupid User 
                    [o] => usertitle 
                    [v] => Useless Spammer 
                )

            [option] => Array
                (
                    [enable_ct] => 1
                )

        )

    [banuser] => Array
        (
            [param] => Array
                (
                    [username] => Stupid User
                )

        )

    [deletethread] => Array
        (
            [param] => Array
                (
                    [r] => This thread sucks.
                )

            [option] => Array
                (
                    [keepattach] => 1
                )

        )

)

Post suggestions and questions here.

If I recall correctly, the old version used/ intended to use the quick reply box for this? If your gearing this for vb 3.5 maybe have a seperate prompt line like area for this to be used in w/ ajax?

It uses posts, no matter how the post is made.

could you have a key word of the day(only you know it) if someone gets it they get something special that day/week/year(admin definable)? thinking forum access, promotion to another usergroup, etc. just an ider for you to chew on

[Link14716]

Honestly that wouldn't have anything to do with this hack. This hack is for letting you close/delete threads, change options, etc, from within a post. And of course it's fun ++++.

didnt know which way you were taking it. i could see it being used both ways but thats just me decyphering psudocode

I've been thinking of emote users system like you can do in YIM, something like /hug Link = deathemperor hugs Link badly and /hug = deathemperor hug everyone in the room

Alright, I implemented a way for it to pickup any text between the command (#hug) and the first parameter and make it a parameter itself.

#hug vB Bash -t badly

    [hug] => Array
        (
            [param] => Array
                (
                    [main] => vB Bash 
                    [t] => badly
                )

        )

So what you want would be possible, it'd just have to be with # and not /.

[deathemperor]

it would be great if you can let us create more command in ACP through some options

Yes, you will be able to add commands through the Admin CP with some PHP code.
