Yes, its loaded with each page, so make sure that its only in the phpinclude template if it is used on each page.

Not knowing what the code is, or what it outputs its hard for me to say.

The easiest was is to assign the output to a variable and place that variable in the template where your content goes.

It all depends what you are trying to achive, this hack is meant just to eval and display the content of a template that you have in your CP.

Webtemplates is similar to this but allows you to add queries via the AdminCP, and has a kind of permissions system built into it.

vBindex also allows you to create extra pages by adding templates that also fit your sites design.

It really depends what features you need and what works best with your setup ;)

Yeah, its too much for phpincludes.

I have attached the output from when I was using PHPBB2, its basically a top 10 played audio clips, and the archive itself. They are output in a table format.

Any ideas? How do I put the whole file inside a variable that will use the style sheets of vB?

If the output is just a sperate section of HTML just with PHP variables in and not any PHP code itself then just place that into the template instead.

Even though the code output is HTML, you cant put PHP inside the templates can you.

I am still stuck :/

[high]* GamerForums wonders if this will make any sense...

I'd known how to do this, but didn't realise I knew, until I read this thread. LOL, cheers mate, working well on 2.2.7. :)

Hi, great hack.
But I want to put this in

<? include ("vbforums/newstransfer.php"); ?>

It calls a news script I am using, however when I put it in the Templates it ignores it. Any ideas?
Tar.

Interesting... similar to my "HTML/ JAVA integrator hack" - didn't know that this one existed when I wrote mine. :)

The only template you can put PHP code in is the phpinclude template, it will not parse PHP in any other one. Add the include statment to the PHP file after it requires global.php.

This works, BUT if you place the include statment in the PHP file under the require global.php the file that you want to include will appear in the very top of the page!

To be more specific, if you want a page with your site's header (on the top) and footer (on the bottom) and you want to include another (external) page right in the middle then your solution doesn't work. At least not for me! :|

Same happens if you place the include statment in the phpinclude template. The only differense is that the included page gets displayed to EVERY VB file.

What would really be helpful in this is to define something like $newpage = include("http://the_included_page");
And then everywhere (in the templates) you place $newpage the included page should appear. Is this possible?

Any ideas??
