Using PHP in VBulletin
 
Right, I am wanting to use some php code using the VB notices system. Here is the PHP code I am wanting to use.

PHP Code:
<?
//Chooses a random number
$num = Rand (1,6);
//Based on the random number, gives a quote
switch ($num)
{
case 1:
echo "Time is money";
break;
case 2:
echo "An apple a day keeps the doctor away";
break;
case 3:
echo "Elmo loves dorthy";
break;
case 4:
echo "Off to see the wizard";
break;
case 5:
echo "Tomorrow is another day";
break;
case 6:
echo "PHP is cool!";
}
?>
I have tried including this into one of my logicians templates but its not working using the following:

PHP Code:
<span style="color:000; font-size:16pt;><?php include("/mascot/random.php"); ?></span>
Ive heard VB doesnt allow PHP to be used unless I create a plugin, is this true and if so, how can I create one for this job.

All ideas and help is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

I seen the VB manual and it just doesnt seem to work the method shown there. I have added a new plugin name quotegenerator and used

HTML Code:
ob_start();
include('/mascot/random.php');
$quotegen = ob_get_contents();
ob_end_clean();
This is an error from a Logician Web Template I tested $quotegen on.

HTML Code:
Warning: include(/mascot/random.php) [function.include]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in [path]/global.php(404) : eval()'d code on line 722

Warning: include() [function.include]: Failed opening '/mascot/random.php' for inclusion (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in [path]/global.php(404) : eval()'d code on line 722
Then I tried $quotegen within a VB notice and still it wont work. Please help :D

Your path is wrong unless you are running Apache in chrooted environment. You need to fix it.

We might be able to suggest the hook location for your plugin if you tell us a bit more about the code - like where are you wanting to post the results?

I am wanting to post the results within a div, floated to the right of a white background, next to an image on the left.

I havent tried the $quotegen within a div as of yet only on its own to test it. I tried it within a web template created using the logicians web templates mod and with a new notice on its own.

Am I supposed to use the full path?

Like blah/home/public_html/etc

Thank you, it is now working after changing the path to the full path /home/Blah/public_html/

:D Lets hope I can get this the way I want it too :)

Very happy ;)
