3.1.x Extensions Database 3.1 / 3.2 ⇒ [RC] Tables bbCode

EDIT: confirmed. All is well in tables land.

Man that was a headache and one aggravating experience. Together we got to the bottom of it. You're awesome!

[Puchahawa]

Always a good day when things like that get resolved. Happy to help!

Sorry - just got back in town.....

Updated to version 2.0.6 and all works great!

One question, you both make reference to the ACP - Am I supposed to see any extension options under "Extensions" or is what you are referencing somewhere else (and where)?

There are some extensions that have settings under the ext tab in the ACP that allow bbcodes and the tables are available there. Sniper was having a challenge getting the code to work correctly in the ACP. That is what we were referencing as we were trouble shooting different variations of the code for the ext. He got it worked out and now it's playing nice everywhere.

Thanks - yes, I do see several of my different extension settings under the ext tab - but not tables. Should it show there? Or just the BBCodes for tables under the Posting tab? Just wanting to know if mine installed fully or not. The extension itself works GREAT!

The only thing that shows for this ext in the acp is the bbcodes under the posting tab. YES it installed fully!

Other extensions like the contact admin ext have the option of editing the message that people see and it has the bbcodes, smilies etc... It's setting are under the extension tab and was one of them that wasn't working correctly.

You know I did not setup any acp settings for the admin to allow anyone to use the tables bbcode. It is setup as a normal bbcode.
But I'm sure if an admin sets a user up to not allow bbcodes then this table bbcode will not be available.

Now there is a problem with the table bbcode not showing in the acp if posting buttons or abbc extensions are not installed.
The adm/style/acp_posting_buttons.html needs an event for this <!-- EVENT acp_posting_buttons_custom_tags_before -->
I have requested this event added at area51 already. But if they do add it... it will come out in a newer version of phpbb3.

And there is a problem with the table bbcode not working in posting buttons also. Or any bbcode ext working in posting buttons.
I have put in a request to dmzx also for his event name changed before custom buttons. That's been a few days ago.
I have put in a request to dmzx also for acp templates so his posting buttons would show in the acp as well.

But you guys do not need to worry about that because you use abbc3.
Abbc3 does not have any templates for the acp yet they show in the acp. Not sure how he made that happen.

Thanks Guys! Just wanted to be sure it installed correctly and I wasn't missing parts of it.

I think you could easily restrict the bbcodes associated with the extension via the Posting, BBCodes tabs, then edit each bbcode and select the Group permissions. I know this works with custom bbcodes, not positive if it would work with an actual extension though.

You taught me something new dm... I use event acp_posting_buttons_custom_tags_before.html in tables.

So I looked...


Therefor in the tables/ext.php file I would use:

Code: Select all

	public function is_enableable()
	{
		$config = $this->container->get('config');
		return version_compare($config['version'], '>=3.1.10-RC1');
	}

I did not know what to look for before, now I do. Thanks!

As you can see from the image above they added it right away. Why was I not notified that they added it? Need to know kind of thing I guess.

I use the latest version and the table looks like this:

This is the text in posting:

Code: Select all

[size=130]Vim Manager Settings[/size][table=95 vimmanager][thead]
[tr=null][th=30]Bezeichnung[/th][th=30]Wert[/th][th=40]Kommentar[/th][/tr]
[/thead][tbody]
[tr=bg2][td]V...

Where are those linebreaks coming from?

When you click on a table, how ever many rows and columns you want and it inserts it in the textarea...
It will insert it in one line. Leave it that way and edit the titles and text areas the way it is.

You are entering the <br/>s yourself trying to make it look right in the textarea. Don't do that.
Click on a table choice and then click Preview. It will show without any <br/>s.
Then hit Enter to drop a row down and click Preview, you will see a <br/> added by you.

Click Preview after inserting table. From your view change the titles and text to suit your post.

Thanks, now it looks good :)

I should add that to the directions. You are not the first one to do that.
