[pmwiki-users] update PTV value in a PHP function

[Peter Bowers]

And for this reason cookbook/Toolbox exists.

Check out 2 related functions there:

(1) writeptv() does almost exactly hwat you are asking for (in
addition to allowing arrays of variablename/value so that you can
update n variables and not just a single one)
(2) ptv2text() deals only with the text, allowing you to determine how
you want to read the page and write the page.

Both of these also ask for a $ptvfmt which defaults to "hidden" but
can also be set to "text", "deflist", etc -- where possible I've tried
to follow fox's terminology and etc. as a type of defacto standard.

Obviously you are free to copy the code if you like, but the idea is
to install this as a development-tool recipe (it provides no markup or
anything -- just a few "library" functions for recipe authors) and
then call the functions from your code.
