Looks OK to me, have you made the plugin hook 'global_start'?

Maybe try a full server path for kbar.php?

Yes, I'm using global_start. Using a full server path I can get the forum to work (previously I was getting a blank forum page).. but nothing is being included. And yes, I'm sure the file is where it is supposed to be.

This is strange.. please help me! :)

And that's the problem;)

There is no global_start hook anymore;)

Use global_bootstrap_init_start

Huh? I'm using it fine on my v4.0.5 install for hooks in the header and footer templates. Confused.

PHP Code:


		
			
// Deprecated as of release 4.0.2, replaced by global_bootstrap_init_start
($hook = vBulletinHook::fetch_hook('global_start')) ? eval($hook) : false;

$bootstrap->load_style();

// legacy code needs this
$permissions = $vbulletin->userinfo['permissions'];

// Deprecated as of release 4.0.2, replaced by global_bootstrap_complete
($hook = vBulletinHook::fetch_hook('global_setup_complete')) ? eval($hook) : false;

Ah OK thanks, I'll change all occurrences of 'global_start' to 'global_bootstrap_init_start' to futureproof the hooks.

I was having problems both with the hook and the PHP code of the plugin. This is the correct code:

PHP Code:


		
			
ob_start();
  require_once('/path/to/public_html/includes/kbar.php');
  $kbar = ob_get_contents();
ob_end_clean();
vB_Template::preRegister('header',array('kbar' => $kbar));

Thank you!

I made a custom template and I dont know which hook location to use for this...? if I use global start my site and forum (site is linked to the forums) is just the contents of the php file im trying to include.

Step 2: You will have to figure out these two entries for yourself: LOCATION OF EXTERNAL FILE & Hook Location

To give you an example of what you should use is that if you want to display your external PHP file on your Forum's Home. Then replace these two with these values:

Hook Location with forumhome_start
TEMPLATE YOU ARE USING with FORUMHOME

I created this plug-in and activated it.

ob_start();
include('/home/mydomain/public_html/php/includes/ineverypost.inc.php');
$includedineverypost = ob_get_contents();
ob_end_clean();

vB_Template::preRegister('postbit_display_complete ',array('includedineverypost' => $includedineverypost));

in vb 3.8.6, this was hooked to 'postbit_display_complete'

Now with VB4, there is no template for post_display_complete....

I tried "postbit" it did notwork. I tried other postbit related templates, this still did not work.

any help ??

The included page shows up but it's showing on every page. I used the parse_template hook. Do I need to include anything else to only show one a specific page?
