If it is already there then why can't I see it? I see no navbar or anywhere where there is an option for a printable version. I did one of your mods and it did not show up. Here is the mod I did:

http://www.whiteblaze.net/forum/2004.php?

Nope you have to make a new template by using the Template Manager in admin cp :)

*sigh* please don't bash hacks unless they truly don't work and it wasn't the installer's fault :)

Take a look at this screenshot, that's how it should look: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/attachmen...chmentid=17205

Also, I never said I had included a printable version now did I? :)

You might want to change the file they should edit to /includes/functions_online.php instead of online.php. ;)

Fixed now.

You're welcome. ;)

greak hack got it working! only question.. is there a way to make it so when some one searches the forum, the pages i made are searched too?

I was trying to add this to the php file and show up in the "TEST" template.

Can anyone could give me a hand on how to make it VB3 friendly. :cross-eyed:

No because search function only searches threads and posts anyways.

PHP code goes in the file before outputting the TEST template, and HTML goes into the temlpate :)

Very nice job on this, I finally got around to adding all the miscellaneous forum policies and a few subpages and this was just what the doctor ordered to accomplish it!

Thanks a lot!

Gary, looks like a great mod... i have a question though

Would it be possible to call an external html page to be included within instead of using templates?

Is there anything like this for vB2.3.X?

Well then there wouldn't be a header or footer, so no point in using this mod then :) I'd suggest copying the HTML and placing into the body of my template :)

Is this like Logicians Template hack?

Alright... vB newbie here, and this question is so basic, it almost makes me feel dirty...

Here's my (oh so humble :o ) question... I'm looking everywhere, and I'm very confused about templates, and the Template Manager. First of all, is the Template Manager the same thing as the Style Manager? And regardless of that, the above code doesn't look like somethign that would be dealt with in the Style Manager anyway... at least not anywhere I can find. Do I need to save this as a template file in my code source (can't find a place it would make sense for it to go), and if not, where would I drop it in in the Style Manager?

Style Manager manages several styles. Each style contains hundreds of templates :) Let me know if that doesn't help, but should at least set you off on the right foot!

Style Manager > Click the drop down box > Edit templates :)

umm Gary, would you prefer me to PM these questions to you?

im suprised this thread has made it to 5 pages, this isnt even a hack... if you would like to learn you could try a link in my sig, also this could have bee much better done with a call to GENERIC_SHELL template using a second template ;)

Who is online system new variables should be in ACP MySQL DB, not the PHP files, I think ... for quicker eiditing ...

Actually you need to add a few new lines of code to make whos online recgonize where you are :)

Closest thing I can think of is this: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...threadid=36600

How would you get a straight HTML, non-vbulletin related page to show up on "Who's Online" on another forum (on the same server of course).

I'm assuming you must reference it to a PHP snippet of code that records Who's Online, but how would I go about doing it?

Just type in <?php require_once('global.php'); ?> at the top of the file (global.php being the one in forum so change accordingly.)

I am sorry if it looked like I was bashing the hack. That was the furthest thing from my mind. I just can not get the navbar thing to work. I followed your instructions and paisted the php code into the correct files. But I can not get the navbar to work.

You can look at my file buy going to this link. There is no navbar. Could you give me some advice?

I guess there was a misunderstanding about the printable version because in the previous post I asked two questions and your response was "already is there". So I asumed that was the answer to both questions. So I guess that was my bust?

I found out what happened. It was my fault that the navbar was not showing up. I deleted ths $navbar in the template by mistake. I am sorry about the misunderstanding.

But I would still like to see a option for a prinatble version added if it is possible.

I just get a blank page;

I have put the test.php file in my forum root e.g. /forum/test.php

And I have created the template...

All I get is a blank page...???

What's the template name? Use UPPERCASE not lowercase.

I'm intrigued by this. I keep coming back to it, wondering if this is something that could be combined with Coppermine or with 4images to get the gallery integrated with the forum. I'm currently running 4images; it allows me to login etc. but logs me out as soon as someone else looks at the forum or the gallery. Drives me nuts. I'd like it to have the navbar across the top, but replace the search functionality with the gallery search (which I've done already once before I scrapped and started over -- basically built a search that looks like vbulletins but calls 4images code)

That gallery is installed into a different directory, but I see you've got the code here for the diff directory.

There is a hack that unfortunately no one is paying attention to anymore here that linked the user login/cp of vb3 to the 4images... so now what I'm curious about is getting basically this to work the other way around -- make the login/etc. work with the gallery.

Hmm... I suppose if I were to copy all the 4images html into these templates it may work.

great! I have been looking to get my custom pages to display correctly on who's online!

Thanks!

is it possible to make it so test.php?page=xxx works? thanks

Yes it's possible but it would be harder to explain and to make it work properly; why not just create a new file? :)

I try to put the "whats-going-on"-content of the forumhome-template into a custom template. Works fine - besides the "calender events". Is there any way to put the events on an "vBulletin-powered page"?

Greetings

You'd have to copy the code in the file to produce the results for that; easiest thing to do would be to copy all of the contents of the index.php but remove the print_output() line.

That's what I had done.
It shows the statistics, online-users and birthdays. But the events are not shown :(.

Is there any chance to get the "Quick-Links" of the navbar running on "vBulletin-powered pages"? That would be nice.

Sorry, my fault. forgot the $navbar.
But the other problem exists nevertheless. ;)

Well I haven't looked into how the code creates the events data, but I suppose it would require more than index.php then. I will look into it when I have time, or maybe someone else could give it a go :)

I was using vBadvanced and had 100+ pages running through it, they're all saved as index_(pagename), I was hoping to be able to do this without making a page for each and keeping them named as index_pagename
