I cannot try, since the plugin does work on my side
(Well, actually I have had many problems a month ago, but it was related to my php5 installation)
I admit, I was not able to escape it properly myself so I just omitted it.
<h2>WP2PunBB Plugin - Ian Huston</h2>
You do not have to escape it, since a html section does not need it. Your "fix" is useless...
Though, I ran into another problem. My wp uses utf-8 with iso-8859-2 collation and the posts transferred to punBB appears as unencoded utf-8.
I wonder, if it could be circumvented, anyhow.
I bypassed it by converting all PunBB tables and pages to utf-8. Forget this solution if you have many messages in your forum, as you'll have to manually convert posted data to utf-8. Well, if you have some sql knowledge, you may write a script
Thanks Tobi, but it didn't work for me... whereas the trick I explained worked like a charm.
Pretty strange : I already use a utf8 encoding for my database...
I'm one of the many extern.php file user. The point is to display the lasts posts made to my forum in my wordpress blog.
But since I'm french, my friends like to write in french too. Using utf8 both in the mysql database (4.12) and wordpress (1.52), I was annoyed since I cannot display datas in the correct way; "é", "à" and so one where systematically converted to a "?", a "feature" of the iso encoding.
How to :
1/ go to extern.php, line 247
2 / add the following line :
$cur_topic['subject'] = utf8_encode($cur_topic['subject']);
3/ that's all
Well, I hope the plugin is still supported... or will be again
Installing again php 4 (since my previous problem is still there), I've been playing a little bit with the plugin.
And a strange behaviour occur : the creation of the new punbb subject works like a charm, but there is no update (I've seen something is inteded in the code) and the most annoying... it doesn't create the row into {$wpdb->postmeta}. The result is I can't call back directly the punbb subject from the blog page...
As all wordpress plugins coded in the php 4 way, I get a "cannot redeclare" error when trying to access the admin panel for the plugin :
Fatal error: Cannot redeclare ih_wp2punbb() in E:\Homepage\Psykotik\blog_test\wp-content\plugins\ih_wp2punbb.php on line 12
I don't have any clue what would is exactly the difference with php 5, but when I test the plugin with php 4 all works like charm.
By any chance... would you release a php 5 version ?
