I want to put in an array as value of a config option, but this seems to muck up the editconfig script as it shows 'Array' as value instead of the array. Any ideas how to get around this? I really want an associative array for easy access. At the moment it looks like this: $config['groupcolor'] = array(<br /> "5" => "Normal",<br /> "6" => "#FF6600",<br /> );<br /> Or is this something I should report as a bug?

I would be surprised if the config editor could handle that. I think it treats all the $config values as scalars.

OOH - I dunno the answer - but I kind of like your theory about it... colors for groups.  Can something like this work? $config['groupcolor'][5] =

Yeah, I could do it that way I guess. A bit more to write though, but that shouldn't matter. Thanks.
I've been doing a mod on request to change color and/or title based on group which I will be able to release soon for your enjoyment.

It seems I spoke to soon, since that notation also gives an array, the same problem arises.
I really don't want to have a comma separated value and split it, it's not very clean and easy to break.

No, it seems it doesn't, but here is a quick hack to make it handle one level of arrays. Change these lines in admin/editconfig.php: <br /> while (list($key,$value) = each($config)) {<br /> if (!ereg("-$key-",$knownkeys)) {<br /> $extras .= "\$config['$key'] = '$config[$key]';\n";<br /> }<br /> }<br />To this: <br /> while (list($key,$value) = each($config)) {<br /> if (!ereg("-$key-",$knownkeys)) {<br /> if ( is_array($config[$key]) ) {<br /> $printvalue = "array(";<br /> while (list($akey,$aval) = each($config[$key])) {<br /> $printvalue .= "'$akey' => \"$aval\",\n";<br /> }<br /> $printvalue .= ")";<br /> } else {<br /> $printvalue = "'$config[$key]'";<br /> }<br /> $extras .= "\$config['$key'] = $printvalue;\n";<br /> }<br /> }<br />

You might try something like: $config['groupcolor'] = "array(<br /> '5' => 'Normal',<br /> '6' => '#FF6600',<br /> )"; and then do an eval. But the config editor might get confused by the nested quotes.

Thanks, that did the trick, without having to hack admin/editconfig.php. Here's how I did, I put this in the config file: $config['groupcolor'] = 'array("5" => "Normal",<br />"6" => "#FF6600",<br />)';<br />And did this in the script to get the array: eval("\$groupcolor = {$config['groupcolor']};");<br />That works, but if one quotation mark is wrong it can break the editconfig page.
