That's not going to work because replace with is not an in-line action.

hu ? So what is the replace specific for the inline action ? Actually, I've seen only one replace statement. Is this particular one missing (I definitively don't like the inline :)). Anyway, this make so sense to the issue.

you should use this :

Code: Select all

# 
#-----[ OPEN ]------------------------------------------------ 
# 
templates/subSilver/overall_header.tpl 
# [...SNIP...] 
#-----[ FIND ]------------------------------------------------ 
# 
     <td width="20%" valign="middle" align="center" class="{listrow.ROW_CLASS}"><span class="name">&<a href="{listrow.U_FROM_USER_PROFILE}" class="name">{listrow.FROM}</a></span></td> 

# 
#-----[ REPLACE WITH ]---------------------------------------- 
# 
<td width="20%" valign="middle" align="center" class="{listrow.ROW_CLASS}"><span class="name">&<a href="{listrow.U_FROM_USER_PROFILE}" class="{listrow.CLASS_NAME}">{listrow.FROM}</a></span></td>

Good question. I've never come across a need for one before. As morpheus has pointed out you can achieve the desired result with a complete replace of the line but i suppose there could be a case when this wouldn't be desirable.

My conclusion is that the inline is definitively of no use : too much error while using it for insertion (main issue on every "add a field to profile" mods), and not full instruction when the confusion can't be (so with the replace). /me rip this instruction from his mod template proforma.

This is the way it should be....

Code: Select all

# [...SNIP...]
#-----[ FIND ]------------------------------------------------
#

#
#-----[ IN-LINE FIND ]---------------------------------------- 
#

#
#-----[ IN-LINE REPLACE WITH ]----------------------------------------

...I'm just not sure if IN-LINE REPLACE ever made it into the MOD Template Tutorial :oops: EM does support it though and I think Country Flags uses it ;) REPLACE is for entire line(s) and IN-LINE REPLACE is for replacing the IN-LINE FIND string.

EDIT: nope, its not CF, I think its Left-Right that uses it

Now another MOD wants to add some more vars but it can't b/c it doesn't know that a previous MOD changed it to u.* and all the descriptive landmarks about the line were wiped out.

Get it now? :P

:oops: Yes, I completely missed the point. I was looking at the SQL syntax, and not the issues for Easy Mod with successive mods... duly noted. 8)

@Dave: ;)

Regarding IN-LINE REPLACE WITH, I am now trying to get it "officially" approved and added to the MOD Template Tutorial. I discovered that I first implemented this command on 7/28/02 but pretty much no one knows about it :roll:

The first time suggesting it: http://www.phpbb.com/phpBB/viewtopic.ph ... lace#88927

Actually implemented: http://www.phpbb.com/phpBB/viewtopic.ph ... ace#181047

Sorry, you guys can't know about these things by magic :P Without the IN-LINE REPLACE WITH M2M's method would have been the only way to do it. But I seriously hate the straight out REPLACE command b/c it is too destructive to our coding landmarks. Using REPLACE as little as possible is definitely going to be a requirement of becoming EMC ;)

As long as you got better answer to preserve original code in the pgm, replace is the best way to historize modifications ;).

I think trying to keep a history is a good thing. But again, getting MODs installed is the top priority. Hopefully there is a way to accomodate both.

FIND works kind of funky now with regards to whitespace lines (line with no text other than carriage return, spaces, or tabs). It is now completely whitespace line independent. So FINDing

Code: Select all

line1
line2
line3
line4
... is the same as FINDing

Code: Select all


line1

line2


line3

line4


...but AFTER, BEFORE, and REPLACE all write whatever blank lines exactly like you want ;)

So I think :).

Blank line cut : there may be issues with not checking the blank lines, but I don't remember anywhere in the phpBB vanilia pgm a spot where it would be, so I think it's ok. Anyway, I assume if number of blank lines is a way to distinct two places in the same prog, it should be too confusing for an user to install it manually without a high risk of error, so let's just say is something to avoid, and it will be a good thing that EM check this issue with finding duplicate searched entries.

So now, what's about performing a each FIND (not INLINE-FIND) on whole file as if it was a separate mod ? :)

If your definition of "localhost" is the same as mine, then yes it wil run on "localhost". You install it on the same machine that is running phpBB and then EM becomes a part of phpBB. If you are referring to your webserver as "localhost" then yes, it will run on localhost. In fact all the FTP methods use "localhost" as the server to connect to. The bottom line is that once all the kinks are worked out, the program should work for all phpBB configurations without modifiying the server's security.
