How To Develope An Index.php File For A Revive Ad Server

[gokubwa]

 I have been trying to learn how openx and now revive ad-server plugin works so that i can develope a plugin for revive ad server.

I have developed a new plugin for Openx or revive but i am having some issues with revive plugin.

The plugin installs and creates new tables just fine. However, when an admin is logged in, and then the admin clicks on a link to this address

revive/www/admin/plugins/mynewplugin/mynewplugin-index.php

The result is a white page. If i move the mynewplugin-index.php  contents to the this address revive/www/admin/plugins/mynewplugin-index.php, the page loads just fine.

 

So, my main question is:

 

Is it possible for anyone to help me with a simple code that can load the left vertical revive menu bar  and the middle HTML framework   page with the word HELLO WORLD code in the revive/www/admin/plugins/mynewplugin/mynewplugin-index.php page or file.


For example this is the revive/www/admin/agency-index.php

<?php

// Register input variables
phpAds_registerGlobal('expand', 'collapse', 'hideinactive', 'listorder',
                      'orderdirection');

// Security check
OA_Permission::enforceAccount(OA_ACCOUNT_ADMIN);

/* HTML framework                                        */

?>



When i place my  revive/www/admin/plugins/mynewplugin/mynewplugin-index.php code in the in the revive/www/admin/agency-index.php after the HTML framework section, the page load my plugin contents just fine but, when i move the   mynewplugin-index.php  code back to my Revive/www/admin/plugins/mynewplugin/mynewplugin-index.php file, i get an error and  white page with this message

I am a php Developer and also used to active community where I am able to help others and also get helped from time to time.  For t those who might be having the same issue like mine you can try this method and hope it helps

 

I found out on my own that I can use the revive-adserver plugin_repo "OpenxDeveloperToolBox" to design my plugin.

 

Thanks

As of 3.1.0 the openXDeveloperToolbox, does not appear to work "out of the box". However, you may get most of it operational by removing the language files and installing a newly generated zip file. YMMV.
