AdminCP > Plugins & Products > Add New Plugin

Hook Location: template_groups
PHP Code:

$only['tempprefix'] = 'Some Template Group';


tempprefix is the prefix of the templates e.g. you could have

tempprefix_somepageone
tempprefix_somepagetwo
tempprefix_somepagethree

and they will all appear under the template group "Some Template Group".

Or you can see the 2nd half of this article, I think its essentially the same as what I have posted above. Manage Templates (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=99132)

vBNews
vBNews_addnews
vBNews_newsbits
vBNews_singlenews
vBNews_printnews

in a template group named vBNews how do i fix that?

i tried this:

$only['vBNews'] = 'vBNews';
$only['vBNews_commentbits'] = 'vBNews';
$only['vBNews_commentbox'] = 'vBNews';
$only['vBNews_editnews'] = 'vBNews';
$only['vBNews_newsbits'] = 'vBNews';
$only['vBNews_printnews'] = 'vBNews';
$only['vBNews_singlenews'] = 'vBNews';

with the title "vBNews Template Group" and active in product vbnews

No, no, no. tempprefix is the template prefix and the string is the template name (i.e. the work for it.

// A default vB template:
$only['showthread'] = 'Showthread';

// Your one:
$only['vBNews'] = 'vBNews';

/**
* If that doesn't work you may need to try:
* $only['vbnews'] = 'vBNews';
*/
