ok - im confused...

[Ee-Ore]

I've created a plugin the same way as I create any other.

For the purposes of this test - I have given it the following code...

$leonvar = "Testing 123"; and activated upon global_start

If I insert $leonvar into my navbit template - it prints our as expected.

However if I insert it into my forumhome_forumbit_level2_post template - I get nothing !

Baffled.

Any ideas ?

Thanks, Leon

This is an issue with variable scope. If the forumhome_forumbit_level2_post template is generated with a local context (say a function or a method), your variable will not have scope within that function and so nothing will be generated.

Thanks for the prompt reply Danny.

Any suggestion on where I start going to look for the solution ?

Thanks.

EDIT...

$GLOBALS[] will work - but is it the best method ?

Its probably the easiest way to get around the issue, yes.
