This query works on 3.x structure but apparently it is not possible to do this with one query in vb 4.x due to db changes

I've inherited an existing vB/WebTemplates installation. The files installed seem to be identical to the 4.0.1 I downloaded. The TEXT and HTML webtemplates when run display the header and footers (and even insert the edit this page link if that is allowed) but the actual contents of the template do not appear in the output. The webquery used also is executed.

If I use the PHP type, then I get output that I specifically print (but no headers or footers).

Pretty much behave the same if I use the test ones, old ones we had lying around, or attempt to generate new ones.

Any ideas?

Edit the webtemplate you have this problem and check which theme its using. (In the section that says "Using a Theme?").

Then edit that theme (eg. Two Column Theme) and make sure it has this variable in it:
{includedtemplate}

If it does, try disabling all other pluggins/products/hacks but webtemplates and see if this solve the problem (in case another hack is clashing with WT).

If this also does not solve the problem, give me admin cp/ftp access to your board and I can check.

Thanks, Log....putting the includedtemplate into the style fixed it.

Hello,

Seems to be very useful addon. Can someone tell me if it supports CMS widgers or Forum blocks? Or do I need to build my own?

Thank you

Please how do i make all the Template to be edited by WYSIWYG?

Hi, first of all, I'd like to say I've searched the entire topic to prevent double posting same problem. :)

I'm trying to modify webquery WQ_lastxthreadfromforumy only to show thread title's first 20 characters:

Can you tell me what I did wrong? :)

Thank you very much.

I believe this should work:

SELECT threadid, LEFT(title, 20) as title, dateline
FROM thread
WHERE sticky=0 AND visible=1 AND forumid=6
ORDER BY dateline DESC
LIMIT 5

Thank you very much, unbelievable support speed! :)
