Custom New Thread/Post Listener

[viaBowl]

in /library/XFtoWP/Listener/LoadClassController.php :

class XFtoWP_Listener_LoadClassController {
    public static function loadClassListener($class, &$extend) {
        if ($class == 'XenForo_ControllerPublic_Thread') {
            $extend[] = 'XFtoWP_ControllerPublic_Thread';
        }
    }
}

in /library/XFtoWP/ControllerPublic/Thread.php :

class XFtoWP_ControllerPublic_Thread extends XFCP_XFtoWP_ControllerPublic_Thread {
    public function actionAddThread() {
        $response = parent::actionAddThread();
        $new_thread=XenForo_Application::get('last_thread');
        $threadId = $new_thread['thread_id'];
// my code here...
        mail('me@example.com', 'Xenforo', 'Called and Executed');
       die('Called and Executed');
    }
}

A listener is setup as follows:
event: load_class_controller
Callback Class: XFtoWP_Listener_LoadClassController Method: loadClassListener

And do you receive any errors? Are you sure the class is being extended properly?

 

[viaBowl]

it does nothing.

 

[viaBowl]

if I can ever get a heartbeat, the rest of this plugin is easy!

 

[Jeremy]

You haven't disabled listeners globally in the configuration, have you? And the add on is active?

 

[viaBowl]

it is active and listeners are not disabled.

 

[viaBowl]

redid it twice and still nothing. this must be a xenforo bug.

Try my guide I wrote a while ago:
http://xenforo.com/community/threads/creating-an-addon.5416/

 

[viaBowl]

Yes! That's exactly what I did! I used your tutorial. This one doesn't have any CP options or anything... its pretty simple.

 

[Jeremy]

Is the individual callback enabled? Nothing jumped out, but it should be throwing some type of error.

 

[viaBowl]

Yes it is. I'm stumped

 

[Jeremy]

actionAddThread() isn't apart of XenForo_ControllerPublic_Thread.

 

[viaBowl]

ooo. so i need Forum,

 

[viaBowl]

bang! forum it is

 

[viaBowl]

ok so now.. how would I grab the current Forum ID from this point? globals shows me only this: Array ( [_origRoutePath] => forums/main-forum.2/add-thread [node_id] => 2

 

[Jeremy]

Its most likely in the inputs. You should give a read through of XenForo_ControllerPublic_Forum::actionAddThread(); to see how its handled there.

 

[viaBowl]

It's in there several times, however they're not "protected" therefore they don't extend with the class

 

[Jeremy]

You have access to the inputs in your extension:

        $forumId = $this->_input->filterSingle('node_id', XenForo_Input::UINT);

 

[viaBowl]

I tried that. none of those variables pass to my extended class.

 

[Jeremy]

You have access to the inputs. You need to fetch them through the input class yourself.
