<h3>Event API</h3>
It is possible to add your own events to the event viewer. Simply call the following function when you want add an entry:
<pre><code> btev_trigger_error($error_string, $error_number, __FILE__, __LINE__);
</code></pre>
or
<pre><code> btev_trigger_error($error_string, $error_number);
</code></pre>
Argument Descriptions:
<ol>
<li>$error_string: This value can be any string, it is used in the description field in the event viewer.</li>
<li>$error_number: This value can be one of the following: E_USER_ERROR, E_USER_WARNING, E_USER_NOTICE. These values determine the type of message in the event viewer (Error, Warning, Notice).</li>
<li>__FILE__: This is the file where the event occurred, please note __FILE__ is a PHP predefined variable. This value determines the source.</li>
<li>__LINE__: This is the line where the event occurred, please note __LINE__ is a PHP predefined variable.</li>
</ol>
So an example would be:
<pre><code> btev_trigger_error('Login Successful: "' . $user_login . '"', E_USER_NOTICE);
</code></pre>
or
<pre><code> btev_trigger_error('Login Successful: "' . $user_login . '"', E_USER_NOTICE, __FILE__, __LINE__);
</code></pre>
NOTE: You should check to make sure that the plugin is active. The easiest way to do this is as follows:
<pre><code> if (function_exists('btev_trigger_error')) {
 btev_trigger_error('Login Successful: "' . $user_login . '"', E_USER_NOTICE);
 }
</code></pre>
