without you posting further details, I can give just a general advice: you will have to run a mySQL query. The stuff in curly brackets in your themes are just placeholders for more complex stuff (some php functionality) that is done elsewhere in the theme file and is being replaced when the theme file gets parsed. You will have to post more details what you want to achieve.

hi GauGau!

thanks for your fast answer!

i want to integrate the Phpbb Private Message Popup into Coppermine.

therefore i have to integrate the following code into head-area of the templates:

Code Select Expand

<script language="Javascript" type="text/javascript">
<!--
  if ( <?php if ($userdata['user_new_privmsg']) { echo $userdata['user_new_privmsg']; } else { echo '0'; } ?> )
  {
     window.open('/forum/privmsg.php?mode=newpm', '', 'HEIGHT=225,resizable=yes,WIDTH=400');;
  }
//-->
</script>

and this part should be replaced :

Code Select Expand

<?php if ($userdata['user_new_privmsg']) { echo $userdata['user_new_privmsg']; } else { echo '0'; } ?>

with {PHPBBPMPOPUP} (or something else)


i hope now you understand my question in first posting!

you can not just put some phpbb code into coppermine and expect it works, as the var $userdata['user_new_privmsg'] is being populated with some complex scripting within phpbb's core code.
Bottom line is: unless you're ready to find all the stuff from phpbb's core code that populates above mentioned variable, you can not accomplish this; it's not only a means of putting some placeholder in curly braces into coppermine's theme file.

can you tell me if there is a variable with which i can read out for example the username?
for example: $data[username] ?

then i will look for the rest!

the array $USER_DATA should have everything you need, add

Code Select Expand

print_r($USER_DATA);into coppermine's code anywhere to check (remove it after the check).
