Im using this:


<?php
chdir("$DOCUMENT_ROOT/forum/");
require('./global.php');
?>


And I can call var's such as $session[sessionhash] and $bbtitle but how can you call variables like this

{acolor}

I tried <?php echo "{acolor}"; ?> but that doesn't work.

Anyone got any ideas?

You have to send it through the vBulletin dooutput() function.

Im now using this code:


<?php
chdir("$DOCUMENT_ROOT/forum/");
require('./global.php');
?>
<? eval("dooutput(\"".gettemplate("nick1")."\");"); ?>

<? eval("dooutput(\"".gettemplate("nick2")."\");"); ?>


Only the template nick1 gets parsed, nick2 does not and neither does the text
