[pmwiki-users] FASTData change request

[Crisses]

I updated my version of data.php:

//XES -added flag to break before resetting page
function Data($flag=0) {
...

// xes - added flag to stop running....
	$MessagesFmt[] = "<h5 class='wikimessage'>$[$m]</h5>";
if ($flag) return;
	if ($_POST[nextpage] == $pagename)	HandleBrowse($pagename);
   	else Redirect(FmtPageName($_POST[nextpage], $pagename));
	}


That part is fine.

I changed my config.php part of the hack:

function Simile () {
	global $pagename, $DataKey, $ScriptUrl, $data, $MessagesFmt;

	// save data that will be changed
	$hold_pagename = $pagename;
	// split up data from simile on form
	
	$similes = explode("\n", $_POST['Simile']);
	foreach ($similes as $value) {
		if ((trim($value)) == "") continue;
		$simile = explode(" ", $value);
		$firstfour="$simile[0] $simile[1] $simile[2] $simile[3]";
	
		// create new page title(s)
		// Simile/BookTitle:AuthorName:FirstFourWordsOf
		$newpage = $_POST['Work'] . ":" . $_POST['Author'] . ":" . $firstfour;
		$pagename = MakePageName("Simile.HomePage", $newpage);
		$_POST['makepage'] = $pagename;
		// add new pages to wiki
		Data(1);
	}
	// reset data that changed

	$pagename = $hold_pagename;
	HandleBrowse($pagename);
}

And it adds the pages I want, and returns the user to the original  
page.  Not perfect, but it's working so far.

But the AllRecentChanges and RecentChanges don't have the new pages.   
Is that coming soon? :)

The relevant FASTData code I'm calling is:

		if (substr($field, 0, 8) == "makepage") {
			$contents = "";
			$s = explode("|", $_POST[$field]);
			if (isset($s[1])) $contents = GetTemplate("page",$s[1]);
			if (! PageExists($s[0])) {
				$page['text'] = $contents;
				$page['title'] = $_POST[title];
				Lock(2);
				WritePage($s[0], $page);
				Lock(0);
			    PageIndexUpdate($s[0]);
				$m .= "Page $s[0] created.";
				}
			else "Page $s[0] already exists.  Could not be created";
			}


I think I remember PM saying that he was changing a function to  
replace WritePage so that everything got updated properly across the  
wiki, but if that's not implemented yet, this might do.
