phpBB3

Update: January 8th, 2010
  1. Download the latest version here.
  2. Unzip the contents and edit config.php to your liking. Ensure that the MySQL settings are correct so that create_table.php will finish successfully.
  3. Upload the wowhead folder to the base directory of your phpBB3 installation.
  4. Upload wowhead.css and armory.css to the ./styles/<your style>/theme/ folder of your phpBB installation, where <your style> is the style you’re using.
  5. Open includes/functions_content.php, located relative to your phpBB installation.
    • Find: 
      if (!defined('IN_PHPBB'))
{
	exit;
}
      Immediately after add: 
      require_once($phpbb_root_path . '/wowhead/parse.php');
      Then find (somewhere around line 689): 
      /**
* custom version of nl2br which takes custom BBCodes into account
*/
function bbcode_nl2br($text)
{
	// custom BBCodes might contain carriage returns so they
	// are not converted into <br /> so now revert that
	$text = str_replace(array("\n", "\r"), array('<br />', "\n"), $text);
	return $text;
}
      Immediately after 
      $text = str_replace(array("\n", "\r"), array('<br />', "\n"), $text);
      Add: 
      $text = whp_parse($text);
      Save and close includes/functions_content.php and reupload as necessary.
  6. Open ./styles/<your style>/template/overall_header.html and add the following lines inside the <head> </head> tags. 
    <!-- Wowhead Item Links -->
<link href="{T_THEME_PATH}/wowhead.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
<script src="http://www.wowhead.com/widgets/power.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<link href="{T_THEME_PATH}/armory.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
<script src="./wowhead/js/armory.js.php" type="text/javascript"></script>
    Then reupload overall_header.html to your website, as necessary.
  7. Goto phpBB’s administrator control panel (aka ACP) and clear (purge) your cache.
  8. Then sit back and enjoy the hard work you’ve done.
