I use TP0.9.5, SMF 1.1rc3, and custom action 2.03, but when I add an action, it is just going back to the forum main page (when I click on the go to page link)

I have checked both of the files to see they uploaded properly, which they have. Any Ideas?

Nice Mode,....very useful,....better then the StaticPageMod (which anyway i wasnt able to install in v1.1rc3)
Much THX 4 this,...

My question: Is it possible to make the Edit (Input) Box wider (its a bit small, and there enough place;))?
(or where need i 2 seach?)

What URL does the link point to?

Not without changing more things than I want to.

That one is a php, which I tested as an article Here

I also tried a html one and a bbc one (action=test and action=2) but no luck.

Edit: thanks for the quick reply btw

[winrules]

Uhhh can you send me your index.php?

[Techdomain]

 

This site continues to suprise... no attachments?

anyway, here is a link:

Try replacing it with the attached file.

Only charter members and team members can attach files.

[Techdomain]

Nice if you dont mind me asking - what did you do to it?

oh - it makes sense about the attachments also.

Thanks again

For some reason the changes didn't get applied to that file. I just made the changes that the mod should've done when it was installed.

[Techdomain]

Oh.. ok. I have found (since then) that I am having to go through every file when I upload a mod as nothing is changing. Something to do with safe mode on the server no doubt.
At any rate, it means I am learning a lot about PHP!

So,
If I wanted to add an action to open another webpage within my forum...

How would I code that in the code box?

Thanks in advance for Helping

[Pedja]

This is excellent tool.

What about providing permissions for actions and option to set button for action in main menu, but not just that, how about being able to set button whenever action could be used, for instance, in user profile, in posts.. etc...?

I also would like to be able to set set description and keywords for HTML header for each custom action.

You can use a Iframe.

You will have to edit the template to make a button right now.

I'd like to know what context that code comes into when executed from a custom action...

My action with which I have issue is http://councilofelders.net/index.php?action=apply, I have a check that you must register to test it, but basically it posts a form up, you fill in the inputs and click submit.  The submit posts to http://councilofelders.net/index.php?action=apply2...another custom action.  I used to run this piece as a straight php file but I thought I'd get jiggy and turn it into a custom action...as I straight php file on the diskdrive of the server I was golden...all worked well.

My code in action=apply2 takes the form inputs from action=apply and formats them into a forum post and manually updates the database posting as a dummy user.  The idea here is to create posts in a board with very restricted visibility to a certain group of members on my site.  So the Application user is the author of the post. 

Now that I've made this action=apply2 I get the following error from my db update code:

Code Select Expand

Database Error
Table 'db180608952.messages' doesn't exist
File: /homepages/11/d1802342383/htdocs/hosts/councilofelders.net/www/Sources/Load.php(1708) : eval()'d code(9) : eval()'d code
Line: 102

The code for the first reference to the messages table is as follows:

Code Select Expand

// We've got the message, now post it and get its ID.
db_query("
INSERT INTO {$db_prefix}messages
(ID_BOARD, ID_MEMBER, subject, posterName, posterEmail, posterTime,
posterIP, smileysEnabled, body, icon)
VALUES ($board, $posterID, '$subject', '$posterName', '$posterEmail', " . time() . ",
'127.0.0.1', 0, '$message', 'xx')", __FILE__, __LINE__);
$ID_MSG = db_insert_id();


I'm requiring the inclusion of SSI.php and Subs-Post.php.  I'm not really sure why sticking this into a custom action instead of a file would kill the script.  Yes obviously I'm taking out the beginning and ending php tags that I'd have in normal php file.

Any thoughts?

[winrules]

First you *shouldn't* have to include SSI.php as everything from there is defined (except the functions in it). With the problem, have you included $db_prefix in your globals? At the top of the code, just add this line:

Code Select Expand


global $db_prefix;

[JunFan]

hrrm judging by the error it would appear that I'm getting the db prefix correctly it matches the database name.  I'll give it a shot and see what it does.

Thanks for the note.


EDIT: Bingo!  TYVM!

Can you tell me what is wrong and/or how to fix these errors?

That's an error in the code you put in for the page. If you post the code I might be able to help.
