Thread: Allowed Actions (Counter)

Hopefully this is a easy one but for the life of me I can't find it.

I was looking for a way to display to the member that they only have 2 messages left for the day and then once they send another messages then the counter would drop down to 1 message left.

I am sure the database tracks this but I can't find it in mysql.

Help plz.

Thanks

Did you try looking in....

Code:

-- Table structure for table `MemActionsTrack`
--

CREATE TABLE `MemActionsTrack` (
  `IDAction` smallint(5) unsigned NOT NULL default '0',
  `IDMember` bigint(20) unsigned NOT NULL default '0',
  `ActionsLeft` smallint(5) unsigned NOT NULL default '0',
  `ValidSince` datetime default NULL,
  PRIMARY KEY  (`IDAction`,`IDMember`)
) ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8;

Great that worked!

Little help with php?

I am trying to display how many messages they have left to send.

So under MemActionsTrack

I have IDAction and Actionsleft

So IDAction 8 is Messages left.
So I want to display IDAction 8 (Actionsleft) for the ID I am logged in as.

Thanks again.

You should look at existing code for help - as it will give you PHP examples, and also the proper method to use the information.

All you need is in inc/membership_levels.inc.php

function checkAction($memberID, $actionID, $performAction = false, $iForcedProfID = 0)

You could either modify this function, or clone it (and rename it) and modify it ... for your needs.
