Hi,
just in case you are still working on that problem, here is my little Howto
to the problem:
1. create a user 'user' with password 'password'
2. create topic to store your new articles in (remember it's id)
3. make sure this topic is owned by 'user'
4. now the code:
<?
// before any output is done the next lines have to be executed !!
$log_me_in = mgd_auth_midgard(user,password,1); // 1=cookie , 0=no cookie
if (!$log_me_in)
{
die ("Not Authenticated!"); //user doesn't exist or wrong login or
password
}
$midgard = mgd_get_midgard();
?>
<?
// lets create an article
$up = 0;
$topic = 27; // id of your created topic
$name = "$nachname"; //those variables are taken from some form
$title = "$vorname"; //i know its a little stupid declaring a
variable as
$abstract = "$sonstiges"; //another one, but its easier to keep track this
way...
$author = $midgard->user;//author has to be the 'user' authenticated
above
$calstart = "0000-00-00";
$content = "$kommentar";
$url = "";
$caldays = 0;
$icon = 0;
$view = 0;
$print = 0;
$extra1 = "";
$extra2 = "";
$extra3 = "";
$type = 0;
//testoutput - just to see if all variables are set correctly, uncomment in
case of error
/*
$logged_in = $midgard->user;
echo "logged in is: $logged<br>";
echo "and author: $author<br><br>";
echo "topic: $topic <br>";
$topic_2 = mgd_get_topic($topic);
echo $topic2->name;
echo "<br>this should be the topic your articles go into..."
echo "<br><br><br><br>";
*/
//-- end of testoutput
mgd_errno(); //clear errors, just to make sure...
$article = mgd_create_article( $up, $topic, $name, $title, $abstract,
$content,
$author, $url, $calstart, $caldays, $icon,
$view, $print, $extra1, $extra2, $extra3,
$type);
if( ! $article ) {
echo "Article could not be created!!!<br>";
echo "Reason: " . mgd_errstr();
}
else {
// lets put some extra parameters into the articles
// cause my form contains lots of questions ;-)
$params = mgd_get_article($article);
$params->parameter("details","email","$email");
$params->parameter("details","phone","$phone");
//and so on..
echo "Creation of article successfull!<br>";
}
?>
That is how it worked for me...
Of course you could do the whole creation the oop way also.
Please Note: AFAIK you can only add/change parameters AFTER the article is
created.
(Thought I could enter all data as parameters while creating the article,
but got an error.
It gave me a few minutes to think until --> dooh,stupid me ;-))
Hope I could help,
Alex
