Please note latest CB 2.x Nightly is required for both releases


Another new major feature with this CB Auto Actions releases is the power to call functions from substitutions. This lets you call variable functions, PHP functions, class functions (static or object based). An example of this usage as follows.

Code:
[cb:parse function="getTitle" class="var1" /]

The above would call the getTitle function on whatever object the first trigger variable is. This can go even further to pass variables to a function as well. This is done by adding those variables after class. Example of this usage as follows.

Code:
[cb:parse function="getEmbed" class="var1" html="1" thumb="0" /]

Note the variable names don't really matter, but I like to name the same as the actual variables on the function it self. This would sent the html variable as the first function variable and the thumb variable as the second function variable to the getEmbed function so it'd be like doing the below.

Code:
$var1->getEmbed( 1, 0 )

This also supports global functions and static functions. Example of both usages as follows.

Static:
Code:
[cb:parse function="myClass::getTitle" /]
Global:
Code:
[cb:parse function="myFunction" /]

In addition to this with the nightly release of CB you can now use extra array variables in IF statements. This means you can finally do a substitution IF statement on a trigger variable value. Example as follows.

Code:
[cb:if var1_type="photos"]photo[/cb:if]

An additional substitution has also been added. It's [trigger]. This gives you the trigger that fired the action. The reason for this addition is an action could have 10 triggers assigned to it and you may need the behavior to adjust based off that. Example usage of this as follows.

Code:
[cb:if trigger="onAfterAcceptConnection"]Accepted![/cb:if]

Just a short question.
There are several very cool auto actions predefined. If i want to localize those actions for german, do i have to make those changes in auto actions and save that action as copy and publish it instead of the original or is localization as usual by language file?

Hello guys, I just installed both plugins and got an error when tried to upload an image on profile gallery to test the activity auto actions.


0 - Namespace does not exist


I went back to last backup and tested and no problem there. Any idea what could be happening?

Hope this helps

You localize their destination and not the source. So you'd add language strings to CB Activitys language files to translate the activity that has been logged. So no you don't need to make copies of the actions.

Use the latest nightly. It may not work on the latest stable.
