sorry I am not extremely knoweledgeable with php yet. can you possibly give me an example?

no I was just going to store the users achievements in the db

So I have been slowly working on a custom forum. I have recently been trying to implement an achievement system. For the most part achievements would work based on the users amount of posts amount of characters in a post amount of replies on a post time past from the users join date. I was hoping to find out how I could put an entry into a database field based on the above. Any help would be greatly appreciated

Hey sorry I am having trouble understanding. How exactly do I use the tags to let the user specify the youtube id. I get that I can make the tags work like [vid=KcuJAe3TrQw][/vid] but how do I make it so that in the code I gave the vid tag will not need to be set to just one video. Sorry Im not very experienced with bbcode. can you give me an example of how I would use the {PARAM} to let the user assign what is in that part of the url?

Hello I have been working on developing a custom forum software for personal use. I have everything done accept for the youtube integratio the align and link features in the post. As of right now Im more concerned with the youtube integration. I am currently using js to add the button and tags to the post and php to implement what the tags do. Currently the button is fine it posts the youtube tags which are [vid][/vid] I am just having trouble figuring out how to assing a variable so that a user can input the video id. I am trying to replace {PARAM} with the video id. here is what I have on the php file. ; $r = str_replace("[vid]","<object width='425' height='344'><param name='movie' value='http://www.youtube.com/v/{PARAM}'></param><param name='allowFullScreen' value='true'></param><param name='allowscriptaccess' value='always'></param><embed src='http://www.youtube.com/v/{PARAM}' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' allowscriptaccess='always' allowfullscreen='true' width='425' height='344'></embed></object>",$r); $r = str_replace("[/vid]","",$r); $r = str_replace("{PARAM}", "KcuJAe3TrQw",$r); I have put a video id of KcuJAe3TrQw in quotes to see if the youtube will get put in if I just use the tags and it indeed does. What I want to do is replace the id with a variable that I can let the user asign the id to... How would I do this or something relevant that would work. Also if you have any spare time I would love to know what I am doing wrong with the align $r = str_replace(" [center]","align=center",$r); $r = str_replace("[/center] ","'>",$r); Thanx for looking at my post and I hope you can help me

thank you soo much ... and I will take what you guys said very seriously as I do enjoy working on websites so I would like to expand my horizons

I did comment on the article... they took down my post. I think it may be because the post is old or something. and also I do know a bit about php and css... but I'm not good with the sql aspect of it... all I'm trying to do is add a password field instead of an email field... I know how to change it so that it would take a password. I just don't know how to make it actually go in the db. sorry I know I must be frustrating. but I'm just trying to figure this problem out.

Please if anyone knows how to fix this I would be very grateful. The only reason I am bumping this is because I really need to figure this out... Again if you know anything or can help me please reply.

anyone?

Hey guys I recently got a drop down log in script from http://tutorialzine.com/2009/10/cool-login-system-php-jquery/ I like this log in system a lot but I want to change up the registration process a little I want to make it so that instead of having an email sent to you with a password that you can not change. I want the user to specify there own password. basically I want to replace the email box with two password boxes the second for verifying the pass... any help would be greatly appreciated. p.s. I also am not very knowledgeable in php or sql for that matter so please be specific about what it is I need to do.
