That's just the template. THIS_SCRIPT is defined in the php page.

Thanks for your reply.
You code removes the blockhead, I want to retain it.
Actually what I'm looking to do is change the text from this...

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/external/2009/12/68.jpg

to this...

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/external/2009/12/69.jpg

Any idea on how to accomplish this?
I plan on creating a massive amount of customized pages, like 50+ pages, so I'm debating on whether I should go this route or go with Lynne's method of using actual php files.

It's all picked up of your template name e.g if template is called custom_AboutUs it will appear like this - AboutUs, so if it's called custom_aboutus it will appear like aboutus. Pretty sure you cannot use spaces though.

Damn damn damn, I was hoping in creating multiple pages like this with spacing in the words.

I don't know where it is - you said you were using some script, so it would be in the file for that script.

I want to make a new page for my home page which would be index.html/php. I made the template and named it custom_homepage.

What shoud I use to call the template? If I make a file, index.php, what should go in it?

Thanks

Lynne

This needs an extra div class so that the now default vb css browser resetting will render HTML correctly. Using a default class from 4 and wrapping it around all custom entered HTML, then renders lists, paragraphs and so forth correctly.

<div class="article cms_clear restore">

You would have to put a condition around the stuff in the page you don't want others to see:

HTML Code:

<vb:if condition="is_member_of($bbuserinfo, x,y,z)">

the content you want usergroups x.y,and z to see

<vb:else />

You do not have permission to see this page

</vb:if>

Your a star,

thank you Lynne

Thanks, this is great tutorial. Could someone tell me please how I would incorporate code with php in. I have some dynamic php driven pages which I'd like to include as additional pages in the forum. How do I call the php code? I'm struggling to be honest so some help would be great.

or, you may have to do:

PHP Code:


		
			
if (THIS_SCRIPT == 'misc' AND $_REQUEST['template'] == 'whatever')

Something like that should work. Play with it.

So if I have this setup to go to my custom temple (custom_cotm) and it goes to this page here http://www.elantraxd.com/forums/misc...&template=cotm

That's great, but how and where exactly should the code you put up go Lynne? I want the top tab in the Navbar called "COTM" to be the one that is highlighted (and obviously I need to make the COTM tab/button go to the correct URL, when it's ready). There is no .php file associated with the template. And the variables I'd need to replace are only THIS_SCRIPT right? Or do I have to do something with the 'misc' as well?

I am trying to create a new page for google search, I have created a new template named custom_gsearch and I have posted my google search code into it and can open the link manually with no problems, however when I enter in a search term it opens a page with a list of smileys.

How can I fix this?

Thanks

Any ideas how to remove the navbar highlighting of "forum"?

Turbine

Noone?

Lynne

Remove it when? If you don't want it highlighted when this page is displayed, then what navtab do you want highlighted when you are on this page? Whatever tab that is, add in a condition for that tab to make it highlighted when you are on this page. The default, when no other tab is highlighted, is to highlight the forum tab. So, if you don't want that, you need to make sure another tab meets the conditions to be highlighted.

How can I make this work and look half decent with a fixed style? when I go to the custom page it stretches it all out and distorts it.

Put the text in a <div class="restore"> tag. I think that will work. (This has already been covered a couple of times in this thread, so if my memory is faulty on the class name, and it could be, please read the thread.)

Either make sure you have the same amount of a's or just rename the template custom_test and view it by going to: forum/misc.php?do=page&template=test

I'm using doubleclick for publishers and have my ad header code in a different include...so something everyone might consider including would be:

Code:

{vb:raw headinclude_bottom}

right under the existing headinclude...

Also in order to address those that want spaces in the title...you don't have to use the vb page title variable...here's the code I'm using for information on advertising on my site.

Code:

{vb:stylevar htmldoctype}

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"<vb:if condition="$vboptions['enablefacebookconnect']"> xmlns:fb="http://www.facebook.com/2008/fbml"</vb:if> dir="{vb:stylevar textdirection}" lang="{vb:stylevar languagecode}" id="vbulletin_html">

<head>

        {vb:raw headinclude}

        <title>{vb:raw vboptions.bbtitle} - {vb:raw pagetitle}</title>

        {vb:raw headinclude}

        {vb:raw headinclude_bottom}

  </head>

  <body>

    

    {vb:raw header}

    

    {vb:raw navbar}

    

    <div id="pagetitle">

      <h1>{vb:raw pagetitle}</h1>

    </div>

    

    <h2 class="blockhead">Advertise With Us!</h2>

    <div class="blockbody">

      <div class="blockrow">

      <div class="article cms_clear restore">

        <p>Text and links and info about advertising with us goes here</p>

      </div>

      </div>

    </div>

    <br /><br />

    {vb:raw footer}

  </body>

</html>

You can replace both instances of {vb:raw pagetitle} with the version of your title that has spaces easily.
