You have a problem on line 3 of your custom file. Post the first 5 lines of your file (using code tags, please).

We have fixed errors but now get a blank white page

Does the template for the page exist in the style you are using to view the page?

yes

Then check your error_logs and see if something is in there. Otherwise, go through your php and debug as needed (remove/comment out stuff, etc.).

our template is called new custom page but our php file is called custom, would that cause a problem

--------------- Added [DATE]1301338367[/DATE] at [TIME]1301338367[/TIME] ---------------

Sorry stupid question but where do I find the error log

It does not matter as long as you make sure to put the correct template name where needed.

If you don't know where your error_logs are, then you need to ask your host.

this is the code we used

<?php

error_reporting(E_ALL);

define('THIS_SCRIPT', 'custom');
define('CSRF_PROTECTION',true);

$phrasegroups = array();

$specialtemplates = array();

$globaltemplates = array('custom',);

$actiontemplates = array();

require_once('./global.php');

$navbits = construct_navbits(array(''=>'Register'));
$navbar = render_navbar_template($navbits);

$pagetitle = 'Porsche Planet Register';

$templater = vB_Template::create('custom');
$templater->register_page_templates();
$templater->register('navbar', $navbar);
$templater->register('pagetitle', $pagetitle);
$templater->register('page', $page);
print_output($templater->render());
?>

According to your code, the name of the template is "custom".

I am not well versed with php, but I thought I would ask here for some help. I have a file on my site that is html and javascript. I used this article to convert it to a php file. Well, for the most part, it works. However, it shows adsense double and the footer is at the top. lol

Where did I go wrong?
