When I put something in phpinclude, my buddy list quit working. Have you put anything in there?

(grasping at straws)

Oh god... I've PhP included my ass off! .............................:mad:

This shouldn't keep anything from working. I hope a developer responds to this... HELP.................................

If you over write a vB variable with something in phpinclude than you can cause all sorts of problems.

My advice? Clean out phpinclude and see if your search works.

ok. I'll work on it. Thanks.

Look in the search templates for variables (start with $) and see if you have any matching variables in your phpinclude template, i.e. like $query

I had to remove the includes. It works now. But this really stinks. My files that I have included were important to my site.

Are there any work arounds?

Shoot freddie. There are quite a few queries in my php includes.

The work arounds are not to use variables of the same name that vB uses.

You can have all the queries you want, just don't name them '$query' - that one would kill the search.

Thanks Freddie.

I found a new use for this hack :D

I added one extra field to the database, and now have forum-specific web rings at the bottom of my topical conversation forums. This hack is highly adaptive :)

Example: Scroll down and look right above the footer.
