Replacing MyBB's [php ] with syntaxhighlighter

first you need to download the syntaxhighlighter

http://alexgorbatchev.com/SyntaxHighligh...sh_current

Then open it up and upload

shCore.js
shBrushPhp.js
shCoreDefault.css

to mybb root/sh/

You probably don't have the folder sh so make it.

Now for the replacing codes part.

1) Go to your admin CP
Templates & Style -> Templates -> Choose the template you use -> Show Thread Templates -> showthread

add

<script type="text/javascript" src="./sh/shCore.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="./sh/shBrushPhp.js"></script>
<link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="./sh/shCoreDefault.css" />
<script type="text/javascript">SyntaxHighlighter.all();</script>

under {$headerinclude}

Then now go to your mybb/inc and look for class_parser.php

find

function mycode_parse_php

add /* before

if($text_only == true)

add */ after

return "<div class=\"codeblock phpcodeblock\"><div class=\"title\">$lang->php_code\n</div><div class=\"body\">".$code."</div></div>\n";

after the */ make a new line by pressing return and add

return "<pre class=\"brush: php;title:PHP\">$str</pre>";

Now open up functions_post.php in the same folder
find

$post['message'] = $parser->parse_message($post['message'], $parser_options);

then add new line and add

$post['message'] = str_replace("<br />", "", $post['message']);

You probably want to edit the .css file so it matches your theme.

I'm not sure why you'd go through all that trouble when PHP has inbuilt functions to change the highlight colors.

Easily done with no extra javascript, no core edits, no unnecessary resources.

I find it ugly to look at. and I'm too lazy to look up the colors and change the colors, when I can just copy and paste all the codes easily.

This is IMHO more lazy and nasty process then the one which Nathan linked above which is just a 4 line code edit or use his plugin (runs no queries!).

See my thread, http://community.mybb.com/thread-120047.html

One from the SQA team have already made a plugin for this. Simple.

Edit, oh, it was Nathan Malcolm who uploaded it.
