off the rails, love your avatar ;)

thanks, I'll post there, but all I have done is copy the article's code into my own file.and the template works fine in index.php, it just wont work in test.php.

Ah, I was having the same problem. The solution for me was to make sure the template name was lower case. I had it as upper case, which didn't work!

The template name is case sensitive, so if you don't use caps for the template name in the PHP file and don't use it for the name of the actual template, or vice-versa, then the template won't be called.

I am sure this is simple but what am I missing here??

Have you created the file in an other folder?

If yes, you have to make this: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...ir#post1692069

I created a php file called test.php with coding above - Added a template called TEST with coding above.

But I am getting an error message. Is there something else I need to be doing?

what is the error message?

Its 3 posts above yours

It says no such file or directory for global.php. Is global in the same folder that test is in?
