I posted a comment on the plugin page with a link to the patch.

Thanks for the thanks.

BTW, love it when code I didn't even try just works :)

You need to click on 'Thank You' above the post. Should have a link such as: http://www.cotonti.com/thanks?a=thank&ext=forums&item=34231

i just go to... http://www.cotonti.com/thanks?user=68
and see nothing happening.. only a list off ppl

I never would suspected the regex ..

Your fix should be standard in the download for this plugin :)

I was trying to thank you through the thanks plugin.... but am I doing something wrong ???? (i cannot thank you)

"#(?P<tag>{PAGE_TEXT_ID_(?P<id>[0-9]+)})#"

should be 

"#{(?P<tag>PAGE_TEXT_ID_(?P<id>[0-9]+))}#"

Your tpl IF block should work just fine.

Thanks for responding, and ill try that and post the results here..

<?php
if (!defined('SED_CODE')){die('Wrong URL.'); }

$currenttpl = file_get_contents($mskin);
if (mb_strpos($currenttpl, "{PAGE_TEXT_ID_") !== false)// if tag exist on page
{
	$matches = array();
	preg_match_all("#{(?P<tag>PAGE_TEXT_ID_(?P<id>[0-9]+))}#", $currenttpl, $matches, PREG_SET_ORDER);
	foreach ($matches as $match){
		$p_tag = $match['tag'];
		$p_id = $match['id'];

etc...

Update: fixed the regex

I have on my website 2 languages, which I would like to select.
Inside my index.tpl is the following part.
 

                <!-- IF {PHP.usr.lang} == "en" -->
                    <h2>About My website</h2>
                    {PAGE_TEXT_ID_23}
                <!-- ENDIF -->
                <!-- IF {PHP.usr.lang} == "nl" -->
                    <h2>Over mijn website</h2>
                    {PAGE_TEXT_ID_22}                    
                <!-- ENDIF -->
 

Where it goes wrong is when i have two {PAGE_TEXT_ID_xx} in there....
Then the index times out...

The PAGETEXTBYIDN plugin does something like this:

It starts something like this:

$currenttpl = file_get_contents($mskin);
if (strpos($currenttpl, "{PAGE_TEXT_ID_")==true)// if tag exist on page
{
    unset($p_match);
    preg_match_all("#\{(PAGE_TEXT_ID_(\d*?))\}#", $currenttpl, $p_match);

 

It ends like this inside a loop that loops through all found tags:

        // Assign tag
        $t->assign($p_tag, $page_html);
 

My best guess:

I am guessing it goes wrong with the assign inside the Template...
I think because I use an conditional TAG based on language <!-- IF {PHP.usr.lang} == "en" -->
and the fact that this plugin uses file_get_contents($mskin) to get the tags.... (which do not care about IF THEN statements)

How do I fix this ??????????????
