Post count not updated when posting with php file

themavesite · May 19, 2016, 11:13:37 AM

Hi, I'm using custom php code to reply to a topic:

<?php
require("SSI.php");
require("Sources/Subs-Post.php");
// Bounce to log-in page if not logged in as Admin
isAllowedTo('admin_forum');

echo '<html><body>';

// Set some defaults -- modify these as desired
$topicOptions['id'] = '31559'; // Topic ID
$topicOptions['board'] = '54'; // Board ID
$posterOptions['id'] = '1';  // Poster ID
$msgOptions['subject'] = 'Re: test'; // Subject of post
$msgOptions['body'] = 'test2'; // The content of the post

// Don't touch these
$posterOptions['name'] = $user_info['name'];
$posterOptions['email'] = $user_info['email'];
$posterOptions['ip'] = $user_info['ip'];

// Create the reply!
createPost($msgOptions, $topicOptions, $posterOptions);

echo '<a href="' . $boardurl . '/index.php?topic=' . $topicOptions['id'] . '">Click here to go view the new reply!</a>';

echo '</body></html>';
?>

The code works without a problem!
But the user's post count isn't being updated... (stays the same value as before)
How would I fix this?

Is the post in a board where posts aren't being counted?

Nope, when you post a regular reply, your post count gets +1'nd

Add the following line to your default settings:

Code Select

$posterOptions['update_post_count'] = true;

Code Select Expand
$posterOptions['update_post_count'] = true;

Thank you for your reply, this works!
One more question though: I just noticed that the statistics also aren't updated, is there another line of code I need to add to make the statistics update as well?
Would make my day if that could get fixed too

Try adding the following line after the createPost(); call:

Code Select

trackStats();

Thanks, that did the trick!

Is there anything else I'm forgetting that needs to be counted?
