vb.org Archive - A few template questions of doing it

1.) This tutorial should answer questions one:

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=98009

(Clarify further if you need anymore help on it)

2.) For this you will need two template. One template will act as the entire page, and the other template that acts as bits of the array.

Really quick and dirty example:

PHP Code:


		
			


<?php



// ######################## SET PHP ENVIRONMENT ###########################

error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE);



// ##################### DEFINE IMPORTANT CONSTANTS #######################

// change the line below to the actual filename without ".php" extention.

// the reason for using actual filename without extention as a value of this constant is to ensure uniqueness of the value throughout every PHP file of any given vBulletin installation.



define('THIS_SCRIPT', 'test'); 



// #################### PRE-CACHE TEMPLATES AND DATA ######################

// get special phrase groups

$phrasegroups = array();



// get special data templates from the datastore

$specialtemplates = array();



// pre-cache templates used by all actions

$globaltemplates = array(

        // change the lines below to the list of actual templates used in the script

        'test_mytesttemplate1',

        'test_mytesttemplate22',

);



// pre-cache templates used by specific actions

$actiontemplates = array();



// ########################## REQUIRE BACK-END ############################

require_once('./global.php');



// #################### HARD CODE JAVASCRIPT PATHS ########################

$headinclude = str_replace('clientscript', $vbulletin->options['bburl'] . '/clientscript', $headinclude);



// ########################################################################

// ######################### START MAIN SCRIPT ############################

// ########################################################################



$query = $db->query_read("SELECT * FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX ." test_table

                         WHERE column = '" . $db->escape_string($var) . "'

                        ");



while ($data = $db->fetch_array($query))

{

   $info = $data['info'];

   $foo = $data['foo'];

   $bar = $data['bar'];



   // Bits template contains $info, $foo, $bar 

   eval('$custom_bits .= "' . fetch_template('custom_bits') . '";');

}





$navbits = array(); 

$navbits = construct_navbits($navbits);

eval('$navbar = "' . fetch_template('navbar') . '";');



// Main Page Template. Contains $custom_bits which is the results of the query

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