Creating a block... Posted: Tue Jan 26, 2010 3:43 pm

I have searched far and wide for a tutorial on manually creating a block so I can stream original media (audio and video). I can go one of two ways. I can manually create a block and insert it into the blocks folder and then manually update it every time I want to add new media or I can figure out how to make the block along with something to give admin options to add based on file type to write updated info to an xml file to keep the list of media. The later is what I prefer, although, at this point either will do. Is there anyone that can give me a step by step and a why as to what code goes where. I really want to understand this as there are alot of ideas I have for blocks and modules and a little too much time on my hands lately so that I can get em made, heh. Anyways, answer here or pm me and maybe we can talk a little more in depth through messenger or something.

As for creating a block, I have a video tutorial in the tutorial section called Block break Down, found here.

http://www.clanthemes.com/tutorials-view-173-block-break-down.html

which was moved but still has the link in side it to

http://www.phpnukedownloads.com/phpnuke-block-break-down-video-tutorial/

In there I go over how to make a block. Only thing is that you don't want to use echo=, only $content = in blocks. But as for your question on how to make it editable in the ACP where you can alter links, that's a bit more work for you have to create a table into the DB, then you have to make it pull the info from the DB. So there its not just a matter of someone showing you that, its something you can research your self learning how databases work and php working with databases. You can learn more about that at various sites. One that I recommend is http://www.w3schools.com/default.asp they go over all kinds of things in there like HTML, PHP, CSS, ect...

paste your block in here, well the code so I can get a better look at what your doing.

As for openings for the block file. Here is a little compensation of openings I have gathers and separated them to show what works on what.

##############################################################################################
############################ Nuke/RavenNuke: ################################
##############################################################################################

if (!defined('BLOCK_FILE') ) {
Header("location: ../index.php");
die();
}

_______________________________________________________________

if ( !defined('BLOCK_FILE') ) {
die("Illegal Block File Access");
}

###########################################################################################
############################ Nuke Evolution: #############################
###########################################################################################

if(!defined('NUKE_EVO')) exit;

_______________________________________________________________

if (!defined('BLOCK_FILE') ) {
Header("location: ../index.php");
die();
}

_______________________________________________________________

if ( !defined('BLOCK_FILE') ) {
die("Illegal Block File Access");
}

Creating a block... Posted: Wed Jan 27, 2010 5:09 am

Well, I have a little bit of experience making DB strings manually. I think I can manage it with a little research. Does W3schools also teach anything on how to create the AP interface to interact with the DB entries? I mean, it basically works as it calls the DB to confirm that the user has permissions to view the content and then allows you to add a file name that it then xfers over to the xml list(the filename info) that is called upon by the index php file.

At very least I guess I can manually make a block that calls the content from an xml file and just set the block to only be viewed by registered members. Will just have to do something to hide the filepath for the media so that people cant directly link to it. Not that I care if someone steals the videos as they will be ingame guild related stuff. Just will be nice to keep it from being needlessly streamed from someone elses site or something.
