I don't know PHP (but know HTML).
My question is how to make a new page that will look like all the other pages (Will have the same header,footer,design...) but will be blank in the middle, so i'll be able to put something new in there (at the same site's look&feel).
How do i do it ? b.t.w i also have vBindex if that can help...

add this code to your new template:

$stylevar[htmldoctype]
<html dir="$stylevar[textdirection]" lang="$stylevar[languagecode]">
<head>
<title>$vboptions[bbtitle] - titlegoeshere</title>
$headinclude
</head>
<body>
$header
$navbar
$footer
</body>
</html>

thats the gist of a basic template;)

wont they need to make the php file and upload that aswell? to display the template?

if you do the code is:

<?php

error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE);
require_once('./global.php');

eval('$navbar = "' . fetch_template('navbar') . '";');
eval('print_output("' . fetch_template('yourtemplatenameherer') . '");');
?>
