This is a great thread and I know I'm on the right track.

I am trying to add a custom profile field to the memberaction_dropdown template.

{vb:raw post.field5}

How would I register this to work in the memberaction_dropdown? It works on postbit (because I'm assuming it is registered)

Thanks again for a great write-up!

i'm a little confused on how to get my loops into the templates.

how would i get mypage.php:

Code:

while ($result = $db->fetch_array($results)){

        $something .= $result['field1'];

        $something2 .= $result['field2'];

}

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

to show all looped values in mytemplate:

Code:

<ul>

START TO DISPLAY LOOPED DATA

<li>

{vb:raw something}

</li>

END TO DISPLAY LOOPED DATA

</ul>

I've been trying like crazy... We need more turorials...

How do I get my variable $my_own_var in an existing template, like footer ?
How do I get an existing variable from an existing template (like $navbits from the navbar template) in an existing template like footer ?

@ vB staff: RTFM should be WTFM

you should register again existing vars:

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

Thanks a bunch for the reply :) :)

Would this be needed to be doing in the hook location where it starts creating the footer ?
And in the case of the footer template, which has no hook-location, which hook location is best used ?

If the creating of the template navbar was done before the footer, would I pre-register the $navbits using the the hook-location in the "navbits_complete" ?

And if the navbar template was built after the footer, in which hook-location would I need to pre-register the $navbits ?

Thanks !

as far as I have seen, footer template is created at the moment any other template is done...

example:
if at the top of a file.. before you did any template stuff...
you do

PHP Code:


		
			
echo $footer; exit;

you will get a blank page...
but if you do:

PHP Code:


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

echo $footer; exit;

the footer template will show...
--> so just find a place before the first template is created...

Please can somebody help, I just can't figure out what I'm doing wrong.

I'm trying to add to FORUMHOME and I can't get the basic example working.

I've created a new plugin (hook: forumhome_start) with the following PHP code:

PHP Code:


		
			
$my_var = 'abc';
$templater = vB_Template::create('mytemplate');
$templater->register('my_var', $my_var);
$templatevalues['my_insertvar'] = $templater->render();
vB_Template::preRegister('FORUMHOME', $templatevalues);

I've then added the following to the FORUMHOME template:

PHP Code:


		
			
<p>{vb:raw my_insertvar}</p>

Am I right in expecting abc to appear in my forum home page source? Because I just get empty , i.e. the variable doesn't exist.

I've tried different hook locations. I also tested the forumhome_start location by adding an "echo 'abc'; in the plugin php, and as expected "abc" appears right at the top of my forum home source.

What am I doing wrong? :S

As you wrote it you should use my_var first in template mytemplate.
Then when you use {vb:raw my_insertvar} in FORUMHOME all content from mytemplate will be appear.
