PHP code??
 

I've spent far too long using the search for terms like

"use php code"
"php code vbulletin"
ect. ect.

This is a simple question and I'm sure it's a simple solution.

How do I use php code in vB?

Here's your best place to start - let us know if you have any specific questions!

That link is the same stuff that I have been reading on a couple other sites.

here's what I've done so far. I've made a plugin and inserted my php code, I name this plugin "links".... I want to have it appear in FORUMHOME FORUMDISPLAY and SHOWTHREAD

note** my php code is just advertisments and there are no variables involved.

Here - check this out.

This is one of my simple pluggins. It's just checking the $_Server environmental variables and assigning a value to $ssl to be evaluated in a template, any template.

IMPORTANT - use the global_start hook location if you are going to need this to execute in multiple templates.
Right? See how I set $ssl to "on" if we've got SSL Environment? You may want to check the PHP manual about the ob_start() function suite, you need it.

So, now in my headinlcude template - I do this...
See?

Here's another maybe more basic example - lets call this pluggin "new_header" - it replaces the standard vB header template with my php template ;)

important: gobal start hook location

Now, I replace just about everything in the header template with $new_header, like this.

That's it! Simple as pie, eh? Hollar if I can help any more bro - but I gotta feeling you'll be writing products for us all in no time!
