Tip: How to parse the params from qa_eventlog

Mon, 05 Nov 2012 04:16:33 +0000

I found a nice "workaround" that will help other plugin developers that need to parse the parameters (column params) from table qa_eventlog to an associative array:

$queryRecentEvents = mysql_query("SELECT datetime,ipaddress,handle,event,params
                                        FROM `qa_eventlog`
                                        WHERE datetime > NOW() - INTERVAL 8 HOUR
                                        ORDER BY datetime DESC
                                         ");
while($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($queryRecentEvents)) {

           // convert tab jumps to & to be able to use query function
          $toURL = str_replace("\t","&",$row['params']);

// parse as URL
parse_str($toURL, $data);

// access keys in array
$postid = $data['postid'];

// ... do what you like

}

Why do I see "Most votes" button?

I switched off the function "votes" in my admin panel and saved the changes. So why do I see "Most votes" button when I push "Questions"? How could it be hidden?

How do i pass data using a question button ?

Mon, 09 Jan 2012 18:28:09 +0000

I want to add a button to questions , and let the button pass my post_id(later same code will be sued for answers).

I do all this in my layer class.

I add a button, with :   'tags' => 'NAME="action_name" ID="1" ' . The button shows correctly.

I then add :

function doctype(){

    if (qa_clicked('action_name'){

   qa_redirect(qa_post_text('ID'));   //tried this is also with qa_get('ID')

   }

}

But this doesn't work.

I tried writing the qa_clicked in qa-plugin but there's no access to qa functions , and i looked in other plugins and it's okay to use qa_clicked inside layers.

How do i read the ID parameter from the qa_clicked function ?
