Hey everyone,
I'm writing a script for someone. Nothing too fancy. But what I'd like to know is if there is a function to check if a template exists in MyBB, and if not, a few pointers to writing a function to do this, as in:
function("templatename");
with a boolean result regarding the template's existance.
Thanks in advance,
michaelh
Just query the database?
return $db->fetch_array($db->simple_select('templates', 'tid', 'title="mytemplate" AND sid>0'));
Not sure if the above is what you want - you'll have to play around a bit with that.

Using that gives me the following:

Have you included MyBB's core?
<?
define('IN_MYBB', 1);
chdir('./forums');
require './inc/init.php';
// do your stuff here
$db->whatever
Being an actual page, I included the global.php file. Do I still need to call init if I've done this?
Yes as init.php instantiates $db object.
global.php includes init for you.
If you've included that $db code sample in a function, don't forget to add the line:
global $db;
since it's stored in the global scope.
