How can I edit a php file in vb3.5.0 ?

[BoYagoob]

Hello,

Due to the new system used in vb 3.5.0, I would like to know how can I preform this hack used in 3.0.x to 3.5.x :

Step 2, open usercp.php
Step 3,
---- find ----

if (!$bbuserinfo['userid'] OR !($permissions['forumpermissions'] & CANVIEW))
{
print_no_permission();
}

// main page:

---- end find ----

Step 4,
---- below add ----

// ########## start notes ############

if ($_POST['do'] == "notes")
{
$bbuserinfo['notepad'] = $_POST['notes'];
$notesql = "UPDATE " . TABLE_PREFIX . "user SET notepad = '" . addslashes($bbuserinfo['notepad']) . "' WHERE userid = $bbuserinfo[userid]";
$DB_site->query($notesql);
}

// ######### end notes ##############

---- end below add ----

Step 5, save file + close

Please, can you help me in his issue ?

Well most stuff in there has changed a lot in 3.5. Also it is prefered not to do any editing anymore, but rely on plugins.

I would suggest that you have a look if that hack is already available for 3.5, and otherwise post a porting request in the original hacks thread.

Hook: usercp_start

PHP Code:

if ($_POST['do'] == 'notes')
{
    $userdata =& datamanager_init('User', $vbulletin, ERRTYPE_STANDARD);
    $userdata->set_existing($vbulletin->userinfo);
    $userdata->set('notes', $vbulletin->input->clean_gpc('p', 'notes', TYPE_NOHTML));
    $userdata->save();
} 


Hook: userdata_start

PHP Code:

$this->validfields['notes'] = array(TYPE_NOHTML, REQ_NO);

Many thanks KirbyDE for your reply.

Now I tried the codes you provied ..

but I couldn't find this hook name: userdata_save

I tried userdata_presave and then userdata_postsave and still this problem appears:

Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_OBJECT_OPERATOR in d:\phpdev5\www\vb350\usercp.php(74) : eval()'d code on line 4

Edited the Post. Sorry.

[BoYagoob]

Thanks sir ..

But also, same problem occur ..

Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_OBJECT_OPERATOR in d:\phpdev5\www\vb350\usercp.php(74) : eval()'d code on line 4

and cannot save any notes I tried to write ..



Small Question: about the title, I wrote: user notepad
for both hooks and wrote different titles but the problem still occur ..
I mean, shall I write a specific title for both?

Thanks again ..

Seems to work just fine for me.

and I will tell you what will happen to me ..

Many thanks sir for your help and support ..
