i don't understand why I would need to make another template? I though I was simple placing a file in the forums root?
Reread the article. You make a page for your site that uses a template. That template is what is responsible for making the page look like the rest of your vbulletin site (it will have the header and navbar and footer).

Here's a tutorial how to create a template:

ok got it now... thanks guys, a lot easier than I thought it was... now I just need to learn HTML haha :D
never created a new template before... so it's just basically a code to communicate with the file?

Not if you make this:
if (THIS_SCRIPT == 'yourscript)
{
$vbulletin->options['bbactive'] = true;
$vbulletin->options['banning'] = false;
$servertoobusy = 0;
$vbulletin->userinfo['permissions']['forumpermissions'] |= $vbulletin->bf_ugp_forumpermissions['canview'];
}
I finally got around to testing this out. My custom page works fine when the forums are turned on, but I want it to also be displayed when the forums are turned off. I tried adding the code above, but no luck yet. I still get the standard 'Forums are closed' page.
Any ideas on how to make this work while the forums are turned off?
Thanks,
James

templates are case-sensitive. You need to call it either "TEST" or "test" in both $globaltemplates and the eval statement.

// pre-cache templates used by all actions

The two items in red must be exactly the same - either TEST or test.

Hi
I am newbie. Sorry if bother.
I follow your instruction. I combine .php and htm code in one file at test.php in Template editor from my Style Manager > Edit Template .
Do i make things correct? Please help me
How do I call the page?
JamesAB
02-28-2009, 06:41 AM
you added it at hook global_start
No. I was trying to use it in the custom page itself. :o
Putting it in the global_start hook made it work for me.
Thanks for your help ragtek.
Now the only glitch (for me) is the fact that I would prefer not to show notices on my custom page. I'm guessing they are tied in with the navbar?
Is there a way to disable showing notices here?
Thanks,
James

the best for you would be
1. create a template tel_bit and put this into:
<tr class="$bgclass"><td>$tel_list_al[telefon_sah].....all your other stuff..
then in the while part:
while($tel_list_al=mysql_fetch_object($sorgula))
{
eval('$satirlar .= "' . fetch_template('tel_bit') . '";');
}

Works fine - thanks :)
Just one question though :)
Currently all pages appear in the navbar as...
SITE NAME
--> Sub Page
Is there anyway to have.....
SITE NAME > Group
--> Sub Page
Thereby having parent pages, which then go to sub-pages? Allowing people to navigate up in the order of pages?
I am also assuming there is noway to have the php pages above the level of the forums folder?
(Unless there is a better solution out there for a larger number of pages for a site, based around VB?)
Thanks.

Are you too lazy to check the article section (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/forumdisplay.php?f=184)? Sorry, but the others and me are not registered here to search, copy and paste all the things your searching;)
If you want to modify your vB then invest some time and read the docs (http://www.vbulletin.com/docs/html/) and article section (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/forumdisplay.php?f=184), use the search function (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/search.php);) or invest some money and post your things here (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/forumdisplay.php?f=30).

I'm not sure what you are asking for here. You want to know how to add a navbar link? How To Add Additional Links To Your Navbar (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=118924&highlight=navbar). If you need lots of help with your page, it may be better to start your own thread so everything is all in one easy to find thread (not spread out among posts like in this thread).

You'll need to find the code in the index.php page (if I recall, it's pretty well commented), including the templates, and add them to your page.

Take a look at your code... like this line:
$birthdaystore = build_birthdays();
Search in your files for that function. It's in functions_databuild.php and that is probably called in one of the other files 'required' at the top. Try including them (under global.php) and see if that fixes it.
And what is the name of your template and where is it called in your page? It must be evaled after all the code is done. And get rid of the extra stuff at the bottom of your php page.

Nothing will show up as long as you eval your template above all the code you are doing. Also, you need to see if there are any other functions you need - I was just giving one example that I found.
Hi,
i have followed this article and it has worked well so far.
I have my forum in the dir /forum but have now created a vB powered page in the website root.
This has obviously broken the links as they assume Im already in the /forum dir.
Is there an easy way to fix this rather than hardcode the domain into the links in navbar template?
Thanks

I'm not sure what you are asking for here. You want to know how to add a navbar link? How To Add Additional Links To Your Navbar (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=118924&highlight=navbar). If you need lots of help with your page, it may be better to start your own thread so everything is all in one easy to find thread (not spread out among posts like in this thread).

How do I run php code from within the template?
For example, this didn't work:
$stylevar[htmldoctype]
<html dir="$stylevar[textdirection]" lang="$stylevar[languagecode]">
<head>
<title>$vboptions</title>
$headinclude
</head>
<body>
$header
$navbar
<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center">
<tr>
<td class="tcat">Title</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="alt1">[b]<?php echo 'Hello World!'; ?></td>
</tr>
</table>
$footer
</body>
</html>

You cannot put php code into the template. It must go into the php page you created (test.php).

Is your page not in the same directory as your forum? If so then you probably need to set your image paths to full paths instead of relative paths.

All the images, stylesheets, etc. are loaded relative to your forums a dir. The easiest way to solve this is to add <base href="http://www.yoursite.com/forums/index.php" />between your head tags (before calling any external files).

Greetings! My thanks to the originator of this thread, and for the moderators and devs who are keeping us going. :D
I've followed the instructions, and I think it's performing exactly as it was meant to, but not quite like I need it to. So, I have two additional questions.
1. I'm an html beginner, a bit beyond n00b, and I think this is an html issue. Anyway, how do I get the html map to fill the page, and not remain limited to one line the way these instructions were originally set up?
The current output is here: http://www.the-sentinels.net/forum/DarkfallMap.php
My Darkfall.php and DarkFallMap templates are in the attachments here.
2. How do I limit access to this php page to certain usergroups, preferably in the Admin Control Panel? I suspect the latter involves making this a product/add on, and I am sure not ready for that.
Thanks in advance for any help. :)

The HTML in your template is the problem. There are a lot of errors that need correcting before you will know for sure what's causing it. See these errors: http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.the-sentinels.net%2Fforum%2FDarkfallMap.php&charset=(detect+automatically)&doctype=Inline&ss=1&group=0&verbose=1&user-agent=W3C_Validator%2F1.606
Try correcting them one at a time, revalidating as you go, starting with the topmost error. You will find that often errors cascade, and fixing something as simple as a misplaced tag will correct dozens of others. But until you fix these you'll continue to have problems.

You'll have to store the output into a variable and place the variable into the template!

Then just place $myoutput into your template

i got a pm but i'm answering here because maybe other users also want to know it...
If you want to use loops you could make it this way:
$output =''; // here i'm defining a empty $output variable, just to be clear its empty^^
foreach ($a as $b)
{
$output .= $b; //add something to $output
}
so, now you have everything i your $output variable
Here's a example from a page i created:
foreach ($contacts as $email=>$name)
{
$counter++;
exec_switch_bg();
if ($plugType == 'email')
{
$contactdetails = $name - $email;
}
else
{
$contactdetails = $name;
}
eval('$contactbits .= "' . fetch_template('contactbit') . '";');
}
here i have a $contactbits variable where i put the content in every foreach step

Hi all.
I've benefitted from this page for quite some time now. I recently upgraded to 3.8.2 and now I'm having problems.
I have an upload applet inside a template called "upload" and I called the php file upload.php - I also added a template "uploaded" which is supposed to be called after the applet runs.
Here is my PHP file.
<?php
// ####################### SET PHP ENVIRONMENT ###########################
error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE);
// #################### DEFINE IMPORTANT CONSTANTS #######################
define('NO_REGISTER_GLOBALS', 1);
define('THIS_SCRIPT', 'upload'); // change this depending on your filename
// ################### PRE-CACHE TEMPLATES AND DATA ######################
// get special phrase groups
$phrasegroups = array(
);
// get special data templates from the datastore
$specialtemplates = array(
);
// pre-cache templates used by all actions
$globaltemplates = array(
'upload',
);
// pre-cache templates used by specific actions
$actiontemplates = array(
);
// ######################### REQUIRE BACK-END ############################
require_once('./global.php');
// ################################################## #####################
// ######################## START MAIN SCRIPT ############################
// ################################################## #####################
$navbits = array();
$navbits[$parent] = 'DJ Mix Upload';
$navbits = construct_navbits($navbits);
eval('$navbar = "' . fetch_template('navbar') . '";');
eval('print_output("' . fetch_template('upload') . '");');
if ($_REQUEST['do'] == 'uploaded')
{
eval('print_output("' . fetch_template('uploaded') . '");');
}
?>
going to the upload.php?do=uploaded does NOT pull the uploaded template at all and goes back to the main upload template.
I've tried to add 'uploaded', to globaltemplates and actiontemplates but still nothing :(
Typing in upload.php?do=uploaded still shows the original template.
Any help would be helpful.
Thanks.

My problem, however, is that I have some 2000 pages on my site and what I'm hearing is that I am going to have to create a template for each of them if I want them all restricted to registered members. Is this correct? And can vBulletin handle that many templates? Or is there an easier way to do this. Any help appreciated.

Create a new file, whatever you want to call it (let's say test.php).
Open up test.php and add the following (replace TEST with whatever template you want to show):<?php
// ####################### SET PHP ENVIRONMENT ###########################
error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE);
// #################### DEFINE IMPORTANT CONSTANTS #######################
define('NO_REGISTER_GLOBALS', 1);
define('THIS_SCRIPT', 'test'); // change this depending on your filename
// ################### PRE-CACHE TEMPLATES AND DATA ######################
// get special phrase groups
$phrasegroups = array(
);
// get special data templates from the datastore
$specialtemplates = array(
);
// pre-cache templates used by all actions
$globaltemplates = array(
'TEST',
);
// pre-cache templates used by specific actions
$actiontemplates = array(
);
// ######################### REQUIRE BACK-END ############################
require_once('./global.php');
// ################################################## #####################
// ######################## START MAIN SCRIPT ############################
// ################################################## #####################
$navbits = array();
$navbits[$parent] = 'Test Page';
$navbits = construct_navbits($navbits);
eval('$navbar = "' . fetch_template('navbar') . '";');
eval('print_output("' . fetch_template('TEST') . '");');
?>
Be sure to change 'TEST' to the actual template name, and change 'test' to the filename. Also, change 'Test Page' to whatever you want to show in the navbar, such as 'Viewing Member Profile' (just an example).
Now create the template, called TEST with the following content:$stylevar[htmldoctype]
<html dir="$stylevar[textdirection]" lang="$stylevar[languagecode]">
<head>
<title>$vboptions[bbtitle]</title>
$headinclude
</head>

Is this up to date with the latest VB? (3.8.3)
Or do I need to do some extra modifications? :)

In addition, would it be a good idea to put PHP logic into the VBulletin plugin system? Or should I just put them in this new php page?

Hello
I'm trying to design one custom page while keeping vbulletin header, navbar and footer on it.
I've referred to following topics :
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=62164&highlight=logicians
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=217075
http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showthread.php?t=197563
Here is the custom page i wanna have headers and footers on.
http://www.projectsplanet.org/forums/testverify.php (http://www.projectsplanet.org/forums/testverify.php)
Enter code 1234test to test above page.
When i try to put my code as follows in custom template created in Vbulletin admin CP, i'm getting error :
$stylevar[htmldoctype]
<html dir="$stylevar[textdirection]" lang="$stylevar[languagecode]">
<head>
<title>$vboptions</title>
$headinclude
</head>
<body>
$header
$navbar
[B][MY CODE GOES HERE]
$footer
</body>
</html>
When i try to save above template, i get following error :
The following error occurred when attempting to evaluate this template:
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_ENCAPSED_AND_WHITESPACE, expecting T_STRING or T_VARIABLE or T_NUM_STRING in /home2/******/public_html/forums/includes/adminfunctions_template.php(3729) : eval()'d code on line 16
I guess its because i'm also trying to write php code within template.
Please check attached php file testverify.php
Please tell me how do i put vbulletin header, navbar and footer there.

You should follow Gary King's article that you linked to. In it, you'll see that you don't do your php page like you have written above at all. Your template will be fine as long as you don't put php in it. Start with the stuff in Gary's article and then add your custom code to it.

Is there any way i can do PHP with this like
Header & Navbar
PHP Code Here
Footer
Is there any way i can do PHP with this like
no.
You are supposed to do this:
something.php
set some variables
require_once('global.php');
PHP code here
output(eval(fetch_template('something')));
and in the template:
header and navbar
output of the php code
footer
More or less, that is the general idea.

Thank you my good Sir. Ill try that out
Edit - What do you mean output of PHP code, the HTML form?
Yes, if that is what you want to show. The html (design and fixed data) part of the form can be put directly into the template, and any dynamic data can be displayed through variables set in the php code.
The basic purpose of templating (whether vbulletin or otherwise) is to separate the front end design from the business logic. The template holds just enough code (actually html with conditionals, not programming code) to show whatever needs to be shown. The template is simply 'shown', and that is why you cannot have php code in there.
The vbulletin manual has a section on templates, and reading the default vb templates can be very instructive for newcomers.
--------------- Added 1246858288 at 1246858288 ---------------
This will work:
php:
$htmlform = "<form>........</form>"
template:
$header
$navbar
$htmlform
$footer
But that is not how it is intended to be. You are not supposed to write any HTML at all in the PHP. Otherwise the whole purpose of templating is defeated.

It is explained as well as it can be. The best thing to do is just copy exactly what he did and then analyze it yourself after you get it up and working. If you need further help, the best thing to do is to create your own thread in the main forums and post the exact php file you wrote and the exact template you wrote (both using the php/html tags).

Okay, I accidentally deleted my test file that I finally got working and really can't spend another week reading through all 76 pages of this topic, fun as that was the first time, to find the answer to this simple question. What do I change in this code to make this page viewable by nonmembers?
<?php
// ####################### SET PHP ENVIRONMENT ###########################
error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE);
// #################### DEFINE IMPORTANT CONSTANTS #######################

// get special data templates from the datastore
$specialtemplates = array(
);
// pre-cache templates used by all actions
$globaltemplates = array(
'TEST',
);
// pre-cache templates used by specific actions
$actiontemplates = array(
);
// ######################### REQUIRE BACK-END ############################
require_once('./global.php');
if (!$vbulletin->userinfo['userid']) print_no_permission();
// ################################################## #####################
// ######################## START MAIN SCRIPT ############################

$navbits = array();
$navbits[$parent] = 'Test Page';
$navbits = construct_navbits($navbits);
eval('$navbar = "' . fetch_template('navbar') . '";');
eval('print_output("' . fetch_template('TEST') . '");');

If somebody could change the code for me in the above quoted code and highlight the change in a different color that would make my day. Thanks.

You should be able to do this (don't forget to escape any quotes):
eval('$showhtml = "<b>This is html</b>";');

example:
I have 10 forum
forum 1
forum 2
forum 3
forum 4
ect .....
I want to do is to page 1
show forum 1 and 3
on page 2 show forum 2 and 4
well with other forum pages can divide by page
I already have the example running on a test forum but can not find the code that I need to show the different forums.

Try changing this:

To something more like this:
if (!$vbulletin->userinfo['userid'] OR !is_member_of($vbulletin->userinfo, 5, 6, 7)) print_no_permission();

Actually, to break down the code Lynne posted a little more,
The part print_no_permission(); spits out a "No Permission" error for the user if they are not registered or in the usergroups 5,6,7 which would obviously be this part of the code: if (!$vbulletin->userinfo['userid'] OR !is_member_of($bbuserinfo, 5, 6, 7))

Okay, I tried this and it worked when I was logged out but not when I was logged in. I am in Group 5 and it said I did not have sufficient permissions. Should this phrase not be

In firstpost, the code for the custom php should be changed:
Instead of
error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE);
it should read
error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE & ~8192);
to reflect the latest change introduced with 3.8.4 to take care of the PHP 5.3.0-related problems.
Perhaps the OP or one of the mods could take care of that.

I'm trying to integrate one of my sites into the vbulletin, I took the vbulletin header, the footer then I called with an include before and after my "engine".
Variables, cookies and session suddenly stopped working Why?
It's a vb security measure? I can I make my code works?
That's the PHP header :
<?php
error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE);
define('THIS_SCRIPT', 'adv_index');
define('VBA_PORTAL', true);
define('VBA_SCRIPT', 'CMPS');
$forumpath = '/home/webdir/www/www.bodyweb.com/forums';
// ============================================
// No Further Editing Necessary!
// ============================================
if ($forumpath)
{
if (!is_dir($forumpath))
{
echo 'Invalid forum path specified! Please edit this file and be sure to include the correct path for your $forumpath variable.';
exit;
}
chdir($forumpath);
}
$phrasegroups = array();
$globaltemplates = array();
$actiontemplates = array();
$specialtemplates = array();
require_once('./includes/vba_cmps_include_template.php');
require_once('./global.php');
eval('$navbar2 = "' . fetch_template('navbar2') . '";');
eval('$headerbw = "' . fetch_template('headerbw') . '";');
eval('$footerbw = "' . fetch_template('footerbw') . '";');
echo"$headerbw";
?>
Between this two goes my code
The PHP Footer :
<?php
echo"$footerbw";
?>
and the templates used :
headerbw:
$stylevar[htmldoctype]
<html dir="$stylevar[textdirection]" lang="$stylevar[languagecode]" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<if condition="$pages['name'] == 'home'">
<meta http-equiv="Cache-Control" content="no-cache" />
<meta http-equiv="Pragma" content="no-cache" />
<meta http-equiv="Expires" content="0" />
</if>
<title>$vboptions[hometitle] <if condition="$pagetitle">- $pagetitle</if></title>
$headinclude
</head>
<body>
$header
$navbar2
footerbw :
$footer
</body>
</html>

How can we make bbcode work on these custom pages? I want to use the bbcode table mod (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=107985) within my custom pages to display tables for me. Is this possible?
Lynne
10-29-2009, 06:49 PM
You want to add an editor to your pages and then be able to use bbcode in the editor? Or are you just saying you want to put tables in your custom pages? If you just want to add tables to your custom pages, just use html. Html is much better than bbcode which then has to be converted to html.
How can I get my page to show on the main navigation menu?!

Alright. I've searched and search and cannot find the solution to my problem.
I'm basically trying to create a wrapper.
eval('print_output("' . fetch_template('clanRoster_start_page') . '");');
echo "test.";
eval('print_output("' . fetch_template('clanRoster_end_page') . '");');
Basically, 'clanRoster_start_page', displays the vBulletin header, navigation bar, and opens a table.
'clanRoster_end_page', closes the table, and displays the footer, etc.
----
It seems that the script is stopping after it displays the 'clanRoster_start_page' template. Anyone have any idea?

Glad this worked for you, but it's not my tutorial. :)
Nothing is mentioned regarding where to upload the test.php file because it can be put anywhere as long as you put the correct paths to the files you include in your page.

Want to create your very own vBulletin powered page which includes the header, footer, and the user permissions system as well?
Well now you can :D
Want to know how it will look? Take a look at the attached screenshot below! :)
Now includes the Who's Online modification! :)
Also, instructions included on how to create your own pages that are integrated with current vBulletin files! :D
I'm going to give you a generic page but you can easily modify the contents of the page by changing the template ;)
So here we go :)
Instructions:
Create a new file, whatever you want to call it (let's say test.php).
Open up test.php and add the following (replace TEST with whatever template you want to show):<?php
// ####################### SET PHP ENVIRONMENT ###########################
error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE);
// #################### DEFINE IMPORTANT CONSTANTS #######################
define('NO_REGISTER_GLOBALS', 1);
define('THIS_SCRIPT', 'test'); // change this depending on your filename
// ################### PRE-CACHE TEMPLATES AND DATA ######################
// get special phrase groups
$phrasegroups = array(
);
// get special data templates from the datastore
$specialtemplates = array(
);
// pre-cache templates used by all actions
$globaltemplates = array(
'TEST',
);
// pre-cache templates used by specific actions
$actiontemplates = array(
);
// ######################### REQUIRE BACK-END ############################
require_once('./global.php');
// ################################################## #####################
// ######################## START MAIN SCRIPT ############################
// ################################################## #####################
$navbits = array();
$navbits[$parent] = 'Test Page';
$navbits = construct_navbits($navbits);
eval('$navbar = "' . fetch_template('navbar') . '";');
eval('print_output("' . fetch_template('TEST') . '");');
?>Be sure to change 'TEST' to the actual template name, and change 'test' to the filename. Also, change 'Test Page' to whatever you want to show in the navbar, such as 'Viewing Member Profile' (just an example).
Now create the template, called TEST with the following content:$stylevar[htmldoctype]
<html dir="$stylevar[textdirection]" lang="$stylevar[languagecode]">
<head>
<title>$vboptions</title>
$headinclude
</head>
<body>
$header
$navbar
<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center">
<tr>
<td class="tcat">Title</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="alt1">Text</td>
</tr>
</table>
$footer
</body>
</html>
All done :D
Now check it out by going to test.php ;)
[B]Who's Online Modification
Now if you want to show who is browsing this new page of yours, just open up includes/functions_online.php and find: case 'bugs.php':
$userinfo['activity'] = 'bugs';
break;Below, add: case 'test.php':
$userinfo['activity'] = 'test';
break; (Be sure to change the values to your own!)
Then find: case 'modcplogin':
$userinfo['action'] = $vbphrase['moderator_control_panel_login'];
break;
Below add: case 'test':
$userinfo['action'] = 'Viewing Test Page';
break;All done! :D
----------------------------------
Also if you want to create your own pages 'within' current vBulletin files, do the following:
Open the file you want, and then right before the final ?> in the source code, add the following:
if ($_REQUEST['do'] == 'xxx')
{
eval('print_output("' . fetch_template('TEMPLATE_XXX') . '");');
}Replace 'xxx' with whatever you want ?do= in the query string to be (for example, replace 'xxx' with 'showprofile' so then someone would type in example.php?do=showprofile to view this template.) Then of course, change TEMPLATE_XXX to your template name, it's that simple! :D

Er, okay, the error is at line 43 of your test.php file, not your global.php file. You probably deleted a quote or something when putting in your template name.
Also, I don't know what you mean when you say where global.php is located, but unless you have some very customized file locations, there was no reason to edit the line refering to global.php. require_once('./global.php'); shouldn't need to be changed.
././global.php is the same as ./global.php which is also the same as ./././././././././././././././global.php
. refers to the current directory and .. refers to parent directory.

1) correct

3) Replace eval('print_output("' . fetch_template('TEST') . '");'); with your PHP stuff.
In while file do I edit to allow the article to be viewed by only certain usergroups?

LOL!
The site I was working on is not my own, and though I thought I was in the right place, the owner has over 100 web properties, and at this point has lost track of many of them. Luckily, the servers he uses are managed. When I spoke with them, I found that the document root I was using, though it looked correct, was not in fact the correct one.
Thank you, Cellarius for taking the time to respond to me.

Now if you want to show who is browsing this new page of yours, just open up includes/functions_online.php and find:
case 'bugs.php':
$userinfo['activity'] = 'bugs';
break; Below, add:
I can't find it.
case 'test.php':
$userinfo['activity'] = 'test';
break;
(Be sure to change the values to your own!)
I know the first test is file name, what about the second one?

It's not in there anymore. Just look for the area with that same syntax structure. There are a bunch of blocks of code with that same format.
I know the first test is file name, what about the second one?
Same name. In his tutorial all lowercase tests are the file name and all uppercase TESTs are the template name.

No, using on v3.8.x.
I was getting the same problem when I installed v3arcade.
I've downgraded the PHP on my server to v5.2.13, which I wasnt happy about - but it seems to have fixed the problem.
This and other mods should be configured with the latest stable release of PHP, as most people will want to use the latest PHP version, or atleast the server managers.

This is not a mod, but a tutorial for coders, provided by someone in his spare time, so you can use the knowledge it provides for free. It is six years old. I really ask myself what you are asking for. Especially since the problem is not with this article at all, but with the vB3.x-version you run. You should have upgraded to the latest version which is fully PHP 5.3.0 compatible.

To add to Cellarius' comment if you search all posts in this thread by Lynne you will see that she provides a compatibility line for the latest PHP version, however, on my site (i started with 3.7.x and am now at 3.8.5) i have both a template with the compatibility change suggested by Lynne and quite a few without the change and i have no problems.

It was a problem my end. Turnt out the code isnt supported for the latest version of PHP, so I downgraded the PHP on my server to fit its needs, but will be recorrecting the code so it supports new PHP and will probally post it for others to use.
New version asin PHP 6, which will be released later on in the year.. so I hear.

Hey Guys,
I'm working on a client's site and he wants to have http://forums.tunedtech.ca/advertise/ so he can add content for Advertising Plans, etc. Now since that page is outside vBulletin's Forum Root I had to change the "REQUIRE BACK-END" part of the code to point to it, no problem. Everything is working and showing up, but it's not loading the CSS from vBulletin on there. Take a look ...
http://forums.tunedtech.ca/advertise/ (Does not show vBulletin CSS as it should)
I went ahead and created the page using "custom_" in front of the Template name, so that I could access it via the "misc.php" link as well. This helps, so that I know what the page is suppose to look like. Anyways, please take a look here (http://forums.tunedtech.ca/misc.php?do=page&template=Advertise) and compare to see what I mean. That's how its suppose to look like when I visit http://forums.tunedtech.ca/advertise/ but it does not.
I'm thinking its due to it being outside the vBulletin Forum Root. So what should I add or change to make it work? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advanced,
Danny

Found the fix, much thanks to SirAdrian! If you are also experiencing this issue take a look here for the solution: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost.php?p=1775213&postcount=1074 ... Add that code to the Template you created right before the "$headerinclude" line withing the <head> tags ... Enjoy!

Does anyone know how to do this when you are using sub domains I am putting a chatroom in its own subdomain so the subdomain is chat.mywebsite.com but i always get this error
Warning: require_once(/home/user/public_html/chat/includes/init.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/trinity/public_html/forum/global.php on line 20
Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required '/home/user/public_html/chat/includes/init.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/trinity/public_html/forum/global.php on line 20
its supposed to be finding thta includes in the .forum.mywebsite.com directory so i have to change this for ever instance.

Is there a way to block custom pages like these from guests being able to view them unless they log in? with having the link to the pages in the navbar as well?

Just use an if condition in the template like this:
<if condition="$show['member']">
ALL YOUR CONTENT HERE
<else />
<tr>
<td>
<h2>You need to be registered or logged in to view this page</h2>
</td>
</tr>
</if>

It's not a good idea to do this on the template level. Just add this at the top of your custom code in the php file:
if (!$vbulletin->userinfo['userid'])
{
print_no_permission();
exit();
}

}Cellarius, why is it not a good idea to manage it at template level?, doing it with a template conditional means that it's easily manipulated later by admins...etc rather than having to access server files, unless i'm missing a security flaw or something?

First and foremost: Performance. Why run the whole file, go through the whole variable/template registering and rendering process etc. just to show nothing in the end?
Next, you break UI consistency by not using the usual way of handling such errors: You need to code your error message yourself instead of using the standard no permissions message, which is phrased and thus works with multi language environments.
Last, but not least: There is a standard procedure in vB to do this, and that's the way I did it. Just look at the original files. And if there is a standard way, it should be used.
Anyway, I really don't follow your argumentation - how often do your Admins need to change which usergroups get access to a custom page? This does not seem like a weekly operation to me, does it? This is a set it and forget it decision, is it not?

Your php code does not get parsed. Make sure your file has the .php extension and starts with <?php.

As for the whole admin's....etc changing things, i was purely talking from ease of operation for myself, i have used a similar conditional to allow certain usergroups to view some content, then when i have added usergroups it made it ease for me to find and change. I wasn't questioning your method & capability, just asking for information as to why, now that i know i would implement that, but it does make it difficult for adding or removing usergroups access.

Could it be incorporated in a pluggin where you can state which templates cannot be accessed?
Could you also tell me how to do this in a php statement?
<if condition="is_member_of($vbulletin->userinfo, array(1, 2, 3))">.

Cellarius, don't get me wrong, i'm no coder by any means, it's just thats the way i have always (not too many times) done it.
Of course you are free to do so if you prefer that method, I just don't think it should be recommended, as it just is not how it is done in vB and does have drawbacks.
As for the whole admin's....etc changing things, i was purely talking from ease of operation for myself, i have used a similar conditional to allow certain usergroups to view some content, then when i have added usergroups it made it ease for me to find and change.
Then it would be still better to add an AdminCP setting where you can add/change those usergroups easily. You still would have to remember to do it, and a code fragment at the top of a php file seems not harder to find than a conditional in a template, IMHO.
I wasn't questioning your method & capability,
I did not take it that way. :)
just asking for information as to why, now that i know i would implement that, but it does make it difficult for adding or removing usergroups access.
As I said: Not really. Opening a php file and changing the code there is not really harder than editing a template. If you don't want to do that, set up an AdminCP setting for it. That would probably be the most comfortable way.
