You can't format a string within the ShowPlayerDialog-function. You first have to format the string and then show the string in that function:

pawn Code:

CMD:credits(playerid, params[])
{
    new pname[MAX_PLAYER_NAME], str[280];
    GetPlayerName(playerid, pname,sizeof(pname));
    format(str, sizeof(str),"Scripters: StuunG23\nMappers: StuunG23\nTesters: PedroX_, Syntec,Yannick, Ultrascripter\nSpecial Thanks to: Pedrox,Syntec,Ultrascripter, Yannick,Dopeboy,Dynamite\nAnd for the sa-mp development team. and thank you %s for playing in our server", pname);
    ShowPlayerDialog(playerid, 1, DIALOG_STYLE_MSGBOX, "Credits", str, "Ok","");
    return 1;
}

Well once i did it and it was the opposite. credits was in the msg and the people in the credits were the title

Because you put the "str" in the wrong parameter.

BUMP

I have cmd:info :

Code:

CMD:info(playerid, params[])
{
    //new string[256],targetid; blahblah
    ShowPlayerDialog(playerid, XXX, DIALOG_STYLE_MSGBOX, "Players name %s", string "Ok","");
    format(string,sizeof(string),"");
    return 1;
}

Where to put this:

Code:

GetName(targetid)

So i can see targetid name on dialog header ... ?

Like any other time you want to format a text.

Yes, i know about that and i tried:

Code:

format(string,sizeof(string),"",GetName(targetid));

But ingame dialog show "%s" instead of targetid name ..

No, you need to format it into a string, you can't natively use formatting in regular functions. Example:

pawn Code:

new
     string[128],
     header[50];

format(header, sizeof header, "Players name %s", GetName(targetid));
ShowPlayerDialog(playerid, XXX, DIALOG_STYLE_MSGBOX, header, string, "Ok", "");
return 1;
}

If you just wanted the name to display you could just do:

format(string,sizeof(string),GetName(targetid));

That's if the function GetName returns a string which I assume it does.
