I am trying to use the cc_panel hook. I don't want to completely override a CC panel, I am just introducing some additional processing. So my module would prefer to keep
$hook_info["handled"] = false so that control.php will continue processing the panel as normal.
But, as part of the processing I might set
$hook_info["okmsg"] to a custom message. Which gets over-written by the core processing for the panel. It seems the only way I can get my own okmsg onto the panel is to completely over-ride the panel processing, but I don't really want to do that because then the panel's core processing won't perform its tasks.
So... I did find a workaround. Although it works, it seems like there should be a better way than to trick the core like this. If I could suggest a change it would be that control.php would honor the module's status messages regardless of whether or not the handled flag is set within the cc_panel hook.
Language: PHP
function phorum_mod_foo_cc_panel($data)
{
global $PHORUM;
// Working on the Signature panel
if ($data["panel"] == PHORUM_CC_SIGNATURE)
{
// We are intercepting the form post
if ( conditions_are_met() )
{
// My custom actions are handled
list($error,$okmsg) = mod_foo_custom_actions();
// Mad Hack so that we can force Phorum to process the panel, yet keep
// our own UI status messages.
$panel = PHORUM_CC_SIGNATURE; // sig.php expects this variable to be in scope
$data["handled"] = true;
$data["template"] = "cc_usersettings";
include "./include/controlcenter/sig.php";
$data["okmsg"] = $okmsg;
$data["error"] = $error;
}
}
return $data;
}
