MyBB Community Forums

I'm writing a plugin that allows a custom message to be added to every page at the footer. So far I've successfully added the settings to the Administration panel, made a new template, and edited the footer template to hold my template.

However, I'm stuck as to where I should actually hook in to MyBB. I want this to be on every page.

Also, I added a setting to toggle on and off the message - how do I check this and appropriately exit if it is set to 0 (no)?

With all due respect,
Steven

$plugins->add_hook("global_end", "YOUR_FUNCTIONNAME");

function YOUR_FUNCTIONNAME()
{	
	global $mybb, $templates, $theme, $YOUR_DISPLAYVALUE;
	if($mybb->settings['YOUR_SETTINGNAME'] == 1)
	{
		eval("\$YOUR_DISPLAYVALUE = \"".$templates->get("YOUR_TEMPLATENAME")."\";");
	}
}

Thanks for the code. Unfortunately, I still cannot get it to display. Here is my full code:

}

function customfooter_activate()
{
	global $db;
	
	$settings_group = array(

}

	$db->query("DELETE FROM ".TABLE_PREFIX."settinggroups WHERE name='customfooter'");
	$db->query("DELETE FROM ".TABLE_PREFIX."settings WHERE name='customfooterenable'");

	find_replace_templatesets('footer', '#(\n?){\$custom_footer}#', '', 0);

	$customfootercode = '';

}

?>

you've used

       'optionscode' => 'yesno',
        'value' => 'yes',

Set the value to '1' or change the check to

if($mybb->settings['customfooterenable'] == "yes")

Edit;
Try the attached file; deactivate yours, upload and activate

Is there any reason to use the file you provided over my original code?

cause your original code didn't work ?
i copied your code and changed everything so it would work.

Edit;
You don't have to use it; you can always figure it out yourself.
