Let say I'm editing the vbcms_page template and I create other custom templates. How do I pull other templates into the vbcms_page? I tried like {vb:raw navbar_link} and it didnt work.

I'd like to know the answer to that too!

Anyone has an answer to this? I assume this is impossible?

Create a plugin, look the whatever hook uses the CMS. Then use:

$template_name = vB_Template::create('template_name')->render();

and

$templater->register('template_name', $template_name);


Just like you would when creating a custom page, but this way you actually just create a template hook.

Ah thank you! So then I can simply call out the template name like this later right? {vb:raw template_name}?

Yes, you can.
