Hi all,

----------------------------------------------
-- Create Portpoint only Admins
elseif cmd[1] == "/ptnew" then
local target;
-- Checking if Admin :
if not event.player:isAdmin() then return msgAccessDenied(event.player) end
local name = cmd[2]
local pos = event.player:getPlayerPosition()
ptnew(event.player, pos, name)
-------------------------------------------------
function ptnew (admin, pos, name)
local targetPos = admin:getPlayerPosition();
local posx = targetPos.x;
local posy = targetPos.y;
local posz = targetPos.z;

admin:sendTextMessage(posx);
admin:sendTextMessage(posy);
admin:sendTextMessage(posz);
admin:sendTextMessage(name);

database:queryupdate("INSERT INTO `port` (`name`, `posx`, `posy`, `posz`) VALUES ('".. name .."', '".. posx .."', ".. posy ..", '".. posz .."')")

If I get you right you want to store "test 1" into the variable "name" instead of just "test"?
You need to keep in mind that "cmd" is an array of the splitted command (so each index contains one word/parameter). You find the full command in the event.command variable. If you want to remove the "/ptnew" at the beginning, you can do this:
[lua]local name = string.sub(event.command, string.len(cmd[1]) + 2);[/lua]
When entering "/ptnew test 1" you will get "test 1" for name, when entering "/ptnew test 1 2 3 4" you will get "test 1 2 3 4" etc.
