Reread the article. You make a page for your site that uses a template. That template is what is responsible for making the page look like the rest of your vbulletin site (it will have the header and navbar and footer).

    $vbulletin->options['banning'] = false;

    $servertoobusy = 0;

    $vbulletin->userinfo['permissions']['forumpermissions'] |= $vbulletin->bf_ugp_forumpermissions['canview'];

}

I finally got around to testing this out. My custom page works fine when the forums are turned on, but I want it to also be displayed when the forums are turned off. I tried adding the code above, but no luck yet. I still get the standard 'Forums are closed' page.

Any ideas on how to make this work while the forums are turned off?

Thanks,
James

you added it at hook global_start

Thanks

templates are case-sensitive. You need to call it either "TEST" or "test" in both $globaltemplates and the eval statement.

I do not understand,
Request,
you show a quote?

Code:

// pre-cache templates used by all actions

$globaltemplates = array(

    'TEST',

);



......



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



?>

The two items in red must be exactly the same - either TEST or test.

Ok same fixed,

My problem, I can not list only the database data

data is only one line

I want to list all of the data

1. line
2. line
3. line
like

instead of

PHP Code:


		
			
$satirlar =

you need

PHP Code:


		
			
$satirlar .=

<div align="left">Thank you very much

Hi

I am newbie. Sorry if bother.

I follow your instruction. I combine .php and htm code in one file at test.php in Template editor from my Style Manager > Edit Template .

Do i make things correct? Please help me

How do I call the page?

No. I was trying to use it in the custom page itself. :o

Putting it in the global_start hook made it work for me.

Thanks for your help ragtek.

Now the only glitch (for me) is the fact that I would prefer not to show notices on my custom page. I'm guessing they are tied in with the navbar?

Is there a way to disable showing notices here?

Thanks,
James

Without realy looking and checking i make it with this little "dirty" plugin: add a plugin at global_setup_complete with

PHP Code:


		
			
if (THIS_SCRIPT == 'foo')

{

$show['notices'] = false;

}

I need a help

1. line "alt1"
2. line "alt2"
3. line "alt1"
4. line "alt2"

How do I do?
You give examples?

Answer Is it for me?

If you are for me

I am Novice, Request, Can you give sample code?

the best for you would be

1. create a template tel_bit and put this into:

Code:

<tr class="$bgclass"><td>$tel_list_al[telefon_sah].....all your other stuff..

then in the while part:

PHP Code:


		
			
             while($tel_list_al=mysql_fetch_object($sorgula)) 
{
   eval('$satirlar .= "' . fetch_template('tel_bit') . '";');
}

Sorry, but I could not do:(

New template "tel_bit"

PHP Code:


		
			
<tr class="$bgclass"><td>$tel_list_al[telefon_sahibi_adi] $tel_list_al[telefon_sahibi_soyadi]</td></tr>
<tr class="$bgclass"><td>$tel_list_al[cep_tel_kodu] $tel_list_al[cep_tel_numara]</td></tr>
<tr class="$bgclass"><td>$tel_list_al[ev_tel_kodu] $tel_list_al[ev_tel_numara]</td></tr>
<tr class="$bgclass"><td>$tel_list_al[is_tel_kodu] $tel_list_al[is_tel_numara]</td></tr>
<tr class="$bgclass"><td>$tel_list_al[aciklama]</td></tr>
<tr class="$bgclass"><td>$tel_list_al[kullanici_adi]</td></tr>

PHP Code:


		
			
                     $sorgula= mysql_query("SELECT * FROM telefon_listesi");

             while($tel_list_al=mysql_fetch_object($sorgula)) 
{
   eval('$satirlar .= "' . fetch_template('tel_bit') . '";');
}

Base template "telefon_rehberi"

Thank you

Hello,

A request from you last

This is very important for me

I could not do

Request, Can you add this in the xml file?
Code install and unistall

PHP Code:


		
			
CREATE TABLE telefon_listesi (
    telefon_id INT UNSIGNED NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
    userid INT UNSIGNED NOT NULL DEFAULT '0',
    kullanici_adi VARCHAR(100) NOT NULL DEFAULT '',
    telefon_sahibi_adi MEDIUMTEXT,
    telefon_sahibi_soyadi MEDIUMTEXT,
    aciklama MEDIUMTEXT,
    ev_tel_kodu VARCHAR(47) NOT NULL DEFAULT '',
    ev_tel_numara VARCHAR(47) NOT NULL DEFAULT '',
    is_tel_kodu VARCHAR(47) NOT NULL DEFAULT '',
    is_tel_numara VARCHAR(47) NOT NULL DEFAULT '',
    cep_tel_kodu VARCHAR(47) NOT NULL DEFAULT '',
    cep_tel_numara VARCHAR(47) NOT NULL DEFAULT '',
    PRIMARY KEY (telefon_id),
    KEY ekleyen_kullanici_id (userid)
)

AND
NavBar and Quick Links automatically into the "Telefon Rehberi" link to be added (No translation phrase) (Note: Text color Red "Telefon Rehberi")
URL: telefon_rehberi.php

Thank you

Works fine - thanks :)

Just one question though :)

Currently all pages appear in the navbar as...

SITE NAME
--> Sub Page

Is there anyway to have.....

SITE NAME > Group
--> Sub Page

Thereby having parent pages, which then go to sub-pages? Allowing people to navigate up in the order of pages?

I am also assuming there is noway to have the php pages above the level of the forums folder?

(Unless there is a better solution out there for a larger number of pages for a site, based around VB?)

Thanks.

@ AdemGEN?
you should use the vb Databaseclass! https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...ht=datamanager

and del

PHP Code:


		
			
define('NO_REGISTER_GLOBALS', 1);

it's not needed!

@ Ian_W
add $navbits[$parent] = 'group';

I set this problem in your way, thank you.

What code do I add to the php file to get it to display Todays Events and Todays birthdays?

--------------- Added [DATE]1236061865[/DATE] at [TIME]1236061865[/TIME] ---------------

How do I get my recently uploaded ALBUMS to show in the page I created? (just from my account... (ie user=29 for example)

Thank you, my job was very useful

For XML
Fo to add navbar link AND To enter the database table structure

Link information?

Thanks

Are you too lazy to check the article section? Sorry, but the others and me are not registered here to search, copy and paste all the things your searching;)

If you want to modify your vB then invest some time and read the docs and article section, use the search function;) or invest some money and post your things here.

I do not speak English

Topics can not find

Thank you anyway

Ive read those links and still cant figure out how to display Todays Events and Todays birthdays...

anyone?

I'm not sure what you are asking for here. You want to know how to add a navbar link? How To Add Additional Links To Your Navbar. If you need lots of help with your page, it may be better to start your own thread so everything is all in one easy to find thread (not spread out among posts like in this thread).

You'll need to find the code in the index.php page (if I recall, it's pretty well commented), including the templates, and add them to your page.

Thanks Lynne!!! I'll try that out!!!

If you use the code from the indexpage you'll need the

Take a look at your code... like this line:
$birthdaystore = build_birthdays();

Search in your files for that function. It's in functions_databuild.php and that is probably called in one of the other files 'required' at the top. Try including them (under global.php) and see if that fixes it.

And what is the name of your template and where is it called in your page? It must be evaled after all the code is done. And get rid of the extra stuff at the bottom of your php page.

ok, added this under global in the php file

Code:

// ###################### Start getbirthdays #######################

and still nothing shows up... doh!

Nothing will show up as long as you eval your template above all the code you are doing. Also, you need to see if there are any other functions you need - I was just giving one example that I found.
