Great. Glad to help. :)

Can cany one please tell my how i can add login,latest treads and that sort of things to the vb powerd page.

Hi

Is it possible for this to work when the forums in a subdomain on the same server?

I have tried it using PHP includes (storing the root php file in the forums dir) and that works, however permissions dont seem to work and when i use permissions via the templates(<if> statments) it doesnt recognise that Im logged in...

thanks in advance for any help

great hack :D

however i am having a few issues when i try to align the tables in the body. if i try to align the table on the left the time stamp will appear on the right in stead of the bottom of where it should be. in the attached image you can see how i made two tables side by side and the time stamp appears in between the two tables. no matter what i try in the code nothing seems to move it. i will attach the code too. Any help will be appreciated :) thanks.

HTML Code:

$stylevar[htmldoctype]

<html dir="$stylevar[textdirection]" lang="$stylevar[languagecode]">

<head>

<title>$vboptions[bbtitle]&nbsp:: Links</title>

$headinclude

</head>

<body>

$header



$navbar



<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center">

<tr>

        <td class="tcat">Links</td>

</tr>

<tr>

        <td class="alt1"><p>Great links and friends of Mysite.org.<br>

        </td>

</tr>

</table>

<br>



<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="48%" align="left">

<tr>

        <td class="tcat">Discussion Boards</td>

</tr>

<tr valign="center">

        <td class="alt1"><br><a href="http://www.site1.org/" target="_blank">Description</a><br><br><a href="http://www.site2.com/" target="_blank">Description2</a><br><br><a href="http://www.site3.com/" target="_blank">Description3</a><br><br><i>more to come...</i><br>

        </td>

</tr>

</table>





<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="48%" align="right">

<tr>

        <td class="tcat">Other Sites</td>

</tr>

<tr>

        <td class="alt1"><br><a href="http://www.site1.org/" target="_blank">Description1</a><br><br><a href="http://www.site2.com/" target="_blank">Description2</a><br><br><a href="http://www.site3.com/" target="_blank">Description3</a><br><br><i>more to come...</i><br>

        </td>

</tr>

</table>

<br>

<br>

<br>

$footer

Installed the test pages "Test"

Its all white and nothing shows?

Whats up, anyone?

Make sure you added the template and also added it to the template cache at the top of the page :)

I want to call this hack from the control panel but right now I'm just getting a blank screen. The template is called MAILLIST and is unchanged from page 1 of this thread.

here's my file called maillist.php which is stored at /forum/
(comments removed for brevity)

PHP Code:


		
			
<?php 

error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE); 



define('NO_REGISTER_GLOBALS', 1); 

define('THIS_SCRIPT', 'maillist'); // change this depending on your filename 



// get special phrase groups 

$phrasegroups = array( ); 



$specialtemplates = array( ); 



$globaltemplates = array(     'MAILLIST',     'usercp_nav_folderbit'); 



$actiontemplates = array( 'MAILLIST'); 



require_once('./global.php'); 



$navbits = array(); 

$navbits[$parent] = 'Test Page'; 



$navbits = construct_navbits($navbits); 

eval('$navbar = "' . fetch_template('navbar') . '";'); 

eval('print_output("' . fetch_template('MAIL LIST MAINTENANCE') . '");'); 



?>

Can't see where I've gone wrong? sure it's something simple, any ideas?

Plus, how do I ensure that I get the control panel nav rather than the normal nav?

Sarah

You can't call templates from within the admincp :)

Thanks Dean

I'm trying to run this from within the user CP.

Found my mistake:

Code:

eval('print_output("' . fetch_template('MAILLIST') . '");');

should be

Code:

eval('print_output("' . fetch_template('MAIL LIST MAINTENANCE') . '");');

but I'm actually going to be doing a hybrid of this technique and extra profile fields so hopefully I'm on my way!

No problem Sarah. Good luck with whatever you're coding :D!
