Render BBCode in Notices

[Robust]

How do you go about rendering BBCode in notices? They can be global, so there's not exactly a view for it that you can render in. If I add the parser into the place where I hook into notices_prepare I just get 'p' dumped to the top of the page.

What I'm doing:

Spoiler: raw

            $formatter = XenForo_BbCode_Formatter_Base::create('Base');
            $parser = new XenForo_BbCode_Parser($formatter);

            foreach($tasks as $task)
            {
                $tasks[$task['task_id']]['title'] = $parser->render($task['title']);
            }

            $template->setParam('tasks', $tasks);
            $template->setParam('completed', $completed);

Output:

(note "p" is dumped at the top, too, removed when I remove the parser lines)

I got the parser working by using {xen:raw $param} instead. It's still dumping 'p' though, for some reason.

@Robust instead of 'new XenForo_BbCode_Parser' you should use:

$parser = XenForo_BbCode_Parser::create($formatter);

Oh yeah, I actually changed that already - I think I did "new" out of habit or something. It didn't make much of a difference.

Spontaneously looking at it makes me think of an error in the template. You should be using {xen:raw $yourcontentvariable} there to have it fully rendered.

Yup, that's what I'm doing

There's no clean and easy way to do this, you need to get the view before calling the "notices_prepare" hook. This addon does this. Look at this file on Github.

Thanks!

Just took a look. I guess the view is required to not mess up. I'll implement that and let you know.

@cclaerhout I still see 'p' dumped to the top of the page, however it does work.

Sorry no time to check your code, but be sure to take a look at this helper; it's working with the Github file I gave you above.

 

[wang]

I do not see anything in the code that could cause that p to appear. Can you please post the contents of the template that you are using?

Another thing to check for, would be white spaces in the php files.

Using the Bb Codes parser after a content has been parsed in hml requires to use workarounds (see my previous message).

 

[Robust]

Still doesn't seem to work. I did the pre-view and the helpers.

Definitely isn't working, triple checked it all and made sure to use the helpers, too.

If you use my addon, can you reproduce the problem?
