Php file in vbulletin [help]

[0zx]

Hello. First of all I'm not sure if this is the correct place to post this, but I do it anyways. Sorry if its incorrect, and feel free to move/delete my post.

Anyways, I'd like to refer to these URLS:
https://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showthread.php/251685-how-to-embed-php-file-to-vbulletin-template
https://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showthread.php/173937-How-to-Include-a-PHP-or-HTML-File?p=1066718#post1066718

In the last URL it's pretty much answering all of my isses, but ONE.

At the bottom of hes thread he says this:
Note: If you wish to include() multiple PHP files, make sure you use ob_clean() before each include() to reset the buffer.

Alright. So I DO want to include multiple PHP files, but I want one file on seperate templates.

My guess would be to set an value to each of the includes, or rename the second "$includedphp" to "$includedphp1".

But I'm very new to coding, and I actually dont dare to mess around with it too much.

So, to summary my thread:

I want to include 2(multiple) .php files into vbulletin.
I've managed to include 1(single) .php file into vbulletin.

I've got php file 1 on template 1
I want php file 2 on template 2

What he explains how to do, is to have 2 php files on one template.


Now, as said before I'm very new to the php language, and programming generally, so dont shot me if anything I say is incorrect^^ All I want is to understand how to... do what I've asked for:)


Thanks in advice!

If you wanted to include multiple files you could do this:

ob_start();
include('path/to/this/file/myfile.php');
$includedphp = ob_get_contents();
ob_clean();
include('path/to/this/file/myfile1.php');
$includedphp1 = ob_get_contents();
ob_clean();
include('path/to/this/file/myfile2.php');
$includedphp2 = ob_get_contents();
// etc
ob_end_clean();


Of course you can name the variables anything you want (they don't have to be $includedphp, they could be $myfile, $myfile1, etc).
