Hi there,
If a variable is created in a php file, how can I tell a template where to find what the variable is meant to do?
IE.
$mad
$mad is assigned in mad.php, how, in a template such as navbar_link, would I get this information from mad.php?
Thanks

Make a plugin and use hooks to achieve this.

What hook location would I select? Would I put the contents of mad.php into the plugin?

If the template is fetched on the same page as that in which $mad is defined then you can type $mad directly into your template.

Thats the thing, its not. navbar_link is used on every vb page.

You need to create & assign data to the variable before the template is parsed.

Create a Plugin on the page on which the template is parsed. For something displayed on all pages, global_start would be best.
