phpBB • Free and Open Source Forum Software

Im sorry for bumping this topic. I just converted my forum from phpBB 3.1 to 3.2 and since then I cannot make connection to another database. In 3.1 I could use the "dbal.driver.class" to create a connection to another db. It was defined in db.yml in the config folder of phpBB's root direc...

And is it possible to add a new mode to an already existing acp/ucp module with extension? Like somehow extend the module?

Hello!

I would like to ask if someone can give me a few tips on how to add a new log option in the acp logs. Like there is admin, user, moderate and error logs but I would like to add one or more options there. I'm not sure if I should do it with events or on other way.

With the migration permission tool you can add your custom permissions and with the permissions event mentioned before you can assign it's language variable and a category you want to put it in.

Hello! I try to use the phpbb ajax callback function in an acp module for my extension but no success so far. This is the template file: <!-- INCLUDE overall_header.html --> <fieldset>     <legend>Ajax test</legend>     <form id="ajax_test" method="post" action="{U_ACTION}&q...

It worked!! There were 2 small mistakes in your post: dbal.extensions_db : <- colon was missing host: ' localhost ' <- no needs for the quotes at least it gave me error when I wrote it this way Apart from these it really allows to work with other database and you saved me a lot of time man! Thank yo...

Sorry for bump but since 3.1.1 already released I wonder if anyone could help me how to proceed with multiple databases on the same localhost?

Maybe this topic should be moved to Extension Writers Discussion.

With rc3-dev I tink my cron task in extension is running but it requires a user to be on forum as cron tasks are managed in page_footer function. Is this intended to work like this? I mean if I would like a task to run every 10 minutes then there should be a user on forum on that given time?

What do you mean by register? It was added to my services.yml file.

Well it doesn't seem to work. I used your file as reference and the task doesn't running at all. The is_runnable() function returns true and I checked the should_run() function as well which also returns true. My task should run in every 5 minutes maybe that's the problem? Here is the code: <?php na...

I'll give it a try. Thanks John.

Greetings!

I'm running a board mainly for testing purposes with phpBB 3.1 RC2 and I would like to ask how can I make a cron task to run in an extension? A simple task which would just update a config variable in a given time. Is there any documentation or tutorial for cron tasks?

I guess so.
I left host and dbport empty as I thought they would be replaced by empty strings.

Hmm it's weird. I used that service definition and my services.yml file looks like this now: imports: - { resource: parameters.yml } services: eff.wiki.controller: class: eff\wiki\controller\main_controller arguments: - @config - @dbal.conn - @dbal.my_second_connection - @controller.helper - @templa...

I tried to solve it on different ways not much luck so far. You could also define a new service like this: dbal.my_second_connection: class: %dbal.driver.class% calls: - [sql_connect, [host, user, password, dbname, dbport, false, false]] (maybe you should import a parameters.yml file instead of writ...
