    • Triggers for forum posts?

    Posted by jstotz posts: 35

    I would like to have Tiki export each new forum post after it is posted. (Plain text would be fine.) This would be instead of emailing them. I was thinking of using a MySQL trigger with OUTFILE however I can't find the table that holds the posts. Would this work? Would it mess up Tiki? Is there a better way to do this? Maybe a PHP file I could add something to?

    Thanks

    The forum posts are stored in the tiki_comments table. Forum posts will contain the value "forum" in the objectType column.
    I don't think a trigger on tiki_comments would mess up Tiki.
