This is an odd request, but to me it seems like a legit one..

Would anyone be willing to take the time and draw up a little hack/tutorial that would do the following:

*Create a custom sql table with 2 fields: ID, REQUEST and INFOTEXT

• ID=simple counter
• REQUEST=Numerical value that allows filtering of values into result sets based on the queried value in REQUEST
• INFOTEXT=Simple text string.

*Create an admincp page that would allow the admin to add a row into the sql table (using inputs for REQUEST and INFOTEXT), as well as modify (edit/delete) existing entries.

*Extend your existing tutorial on creating vb pages by showing how to retrieve the set of records based on the $_REQUEST command; meaning, retreieve a set of records that match $_REQUEST in the REQUEST field.

*Uses 2 primary templates (can call them TEST (template displays the main table structure/header/footer) and TESTBIT (template defines appearance of each item returned in the rowset)

*Uses vbulletins multipage system - in case there are a large number of results, we want to break them up into several pages.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Basically, Im asking for someone to show me how to create an absolute minimal functioning hack for vbulletin. I will then use your work as a learning tool so I can design my OWN hacks.

I realize it may take a bit of effort for anyone who may consiter doing this for me, however, I believe the results would prove beneficial for many users who want to do simple things, but don't understand the full process.

Please and thank you in advance!

anyone? I've seriously been trying to do this myself, but not having any luck.

HEH i couldn't write this even if i tried =x

well, ive managed to figure out everything up to the multipage aspect on my own. Will attempt to figure that one out today and hopefully have enuf understanding to create a functional admin area for it.
