Question need module to get these variables

Hello,

I want to create a module for kunena that displays a form in the front page, the registered user writes something in the form and when he sends it, it opens a thread in a certain category in the forum.

The script that I have written provides 1 variable that would be for the message and 1 for the title. However, before I import something in the database I need to get this user's name, the date, his IP, e-mail, etc. And in the end to update his number of posts.

I personally would like to ask for a module that gives me these variables in an echo variant (I will comment the printing) and I will add my database queries plus my script.

If anyone has something that could ease my life for all of this I'm trying to make, I would be very grateful!

Thanks to whoever responds!

look at the profilebox.php file all the vars you need are used in there except the IP one. I would list them for you but im tired and need sleep but thought id post to get u started will add more info when im more awake/.

Thank you very much! I hadn't got around this module since last week, but I got to it again and I checked your answer and I was quite satisfied! ^^

I would appreciate any further help if I have some difficulties which most probably I will... xD Thanks again!

Hello again!
The tip you gave me was very helpful indeed! However, I came across this:

I can get the name, user name, id, email and time stamp but I also need the user's IP.

I also need to increase the number of posts he has by one and update it.

And finally (if I am not getting too annoying), what is this field 'thread' in the database, in table fb_messages?

I am really looking forward to anyone who helps me! Big thanks in advance!

Okay, I did manage to get everything I need for the user's info.

Now I want to ask which tables in the database should I update/import for the proper implementation of the new post?

Increase the number of posts of the user, fb_messages, fb_messages_text and in fb_categories latest post in the current category.

Is that all?

Hello,

I think it's correct.

With Kunena 1.6 and the new API, you will can do this more easily
