See that post, we already had it enabled in Joomlaboard, will be easy to port to Fireboard. Nice and clean, I think.

(Credit for the code does not go to me, though.)

Hm. It's exactly (for each word) the same method.
To enable it for FB, i simply changed $sb_message_txt for $fb_message_txt.

No need to be a coder to adapt good work as JB/FB !!

Thanks so much to the whole team united now !

Yup, we are thinking of embeding mambots as native for JB, with our own calls, like beforePost, signatureSave,... so you can have a total control on the content generated and saved.

I'm at the moment planing how to do it

The next release of Fireboard will be awesome, i hope you guys can implement the mambot idea, i dont like the harcoded things hahaha.

Oh, you already posted the method here, sorry, for replicating it - I did not read further than page 1 of this thread before replying.

Thanks again for that mambot code florut, both for Joomlaboard and Fireboard! It really enhanced the board at my page!

I guess it all depends on what template you're using. In the newer templates there is no view.php in any folder. Actually there are a LOT of files "missing" from the newer templates (how do they work without those files ?).
Not that it matters. I tried modifying the default template's view.php with no results after following the all the above posts to the letter. I think I'll wait until the next release. If I wanted to hack files I'd be using PHPBB. I prefer Fireboard.

I decided to add video support to my fireboard by adding some code (as mentioned earlier) to the smile.class.php


find this line

[code:1] // italic


$fb_message_txt = preg_replace("/([i])(.*?)([/i])/si","\2",$fb_message_txt);[/code:1]


and add the following code


[code:1] //youtube

$fb_message_txt = preg_replace("/[youtube](.*?)[/youtube]/si","",$fb_message_txt);


// Myvideo

$fb_message_txt = preg_replace("/[myvideo](.*?)[/myvideo]/si","",$fb_message_txt);

// Google Video

$fb_message_txt = preg_replace("/[google](.*?)[/google]/si","",$fb_message_txt);

// Clipfish

$fb_message_txt = preg_replace("/[clipfish](.*?)[/clipfish]/si","",$fb_message_txt);[/code:1]


Use:

[ youtube]Video-ID[ /youtube]
[ myvideo]Video-ID[ /myvideo]
[ google]Video-ID[ /google]
[ clipfish]Video-ID[ /clipfish]

That is how I have seen other boards implement embeded video and that's how I am going to do it as well for the time being. Thanks for sharing the code.

I'll still ad my vote for Mambot/Plugin support in Fireboard though. That would still be good core functionality, but I would like to see it restricted to user classes (moderators, admins).

It works, as long as there aren't any weird spaces. When I copied the code, for some reason, the lines broke several times, resulting in raw code being displayed on the forum. Going through and bringing lines together fixed it though.

This is would make the Forum powerful... As we could use all the mambots right here so it would be like having a great list of Plugins already created...

cant wait to see this integrated..
