[Hack] autoblog + full access to custom layout for users

1 Jan 31, 2008 16:25    

Hi, this is my old litle hack to b2.

Users can choose layout and full edit in control panel. I connect this function to autoblog plugin V.1.8.2.

Instalation:

open: autoblog_plugin.php

change:


$new_blog_skin = $this->Settings->get('blog_skin');


on:


$new_blog_skin = '_skinuser/_user_'. $new_blog_shortname;

after:


$new_blog_force_skin = $this->Settings->get('blog_force_skin');
$new_blog_allowblogcss = $this->Settings->get('blog_allowblogcss');
$new_blog_in_bloglist = $this->Settings->get('blog_in_bloglist');
$new_blog_show_bloglist = $this->Settings->get('show_bloglist');


add:


		// HACK DJHORS ******************************************************
		$skinurl = get_path('skins');

		include($basepath."inc/_misc/_dirtool.class.php");

		$dir = new dirtool($skinurl.'custom');
		//$dir->debug(TRUE);
		$dir->copy($skinurl.'_skinuser/_user_'.$new_blog_shortname, 0777, $skinurl.'custom');
		//$dir->debug(TRUE);

		//*******************************************************************


open: b2template.php (/inc/CONTROL/skins)

change all :


$edit_folder = $skins_path.'custom/';

on


$edit_folder = $skins_path.'_skinuser/_user_'.$current_User->dget('login').'/';

open: _blogs_skin.form.php (/inc/collections/)

change all on:

create '_skinuser' folder in /skins folder b2 and chmod to 777

I created that fast and they can some error but on my b2 its work. I test this in only: v1.10.3

and you must download class dirtoll or copy/ past from next post and name this file _dirtool.class.php / copy this file to /inc/_misc/

Remeber. You give acces to edit php layout for your users :)

sorry for my english :)

Hi djhors,

I reviewed your solution and I think it is a great idea. I would like somebody to write how to enable the users to edit their new skin.

I did remove the link to the file you presented for upload. It contained a function able to delete a complete directory structure. Since you don't use this function in your hack I believe it is better to only put the fragments that are able to copy a directory in one's server.
This is the edited file _dirtool.class.php you want to put in the inc/_misc/ folder:

<?php

Any one interested in the original file can PM either me or djhors.

I would love to hear some feedback on the concept of a user able to edit their skin. Are there a lot of users in a Multiblog situation using this possibility?
In the 2.x series a blogger is able to edit the css file of a skin. I have not yet experimented with this feature.

Have fun
