Exporting variable from plugin to template

Hi,
I need just to make available a new variable in my template.
If the requested url contains a custom value (a referral index), I need to add this value to profiles url.

I'm new to vbulletin programming; I need to do something like:

Code:

if ($_GET['fref']=='PS') $_SESSION['fref']='PS';



$pfer ? $_SESSION['fref'];

Then I would like to use $pref insede the template.

I need the variable in template because I need to replace profile and user links (I need to integrate with drupal user base).

Thanks

Sorry,

not template... style :)
I have custom styles to manage different sections.
May be I can just modify the phrases and variabile (with URLs) in the plugin?

You can create a plugin at global start, which will allow your variable to be used in most templates. In others, you may have to use the PHP $GLOBALS[] array to access it, or alternatively, make the variable available by creating a plugin just before the template is parsed and bring the variable into scope.

Thanks Dismounted,

can you guide me?
I wrote my plugin at Global Start

Code:

if ($_GET['fref']=='PS') $_SESSION['fref']='PS';



$pfer ? $_SESSION['fref'];

then I want tu use $pfer variable in the header section of my style; I have to use something like this?

Code:

$GLOBAL['pfer']

Thanks

Have you tried just using $pfer? Once you set a variable in global_start, you should be able to use it just about anywhere.

Also, the procedure for globalizing a variable is as follows:

PHP Code:


		
			
global $var, $var2, $so_on, $so_forth;

Hi Gio,

can yoiu help me to write this little piece of code?

My plugin now is (triggered at global_start):

Code:

global $fref;



if ($_GET['fref']=='PS') $_SESSION['fref']='PS';



$fref = 'foo';

In the header code of my style I have:

Code:

<a href="$fref">XXXXXXXXXXXXXX</a>

but the $fref variable is always empty...
May be I mistake something?

Thanks.

--------------- Added 20 Mar 2012 at 15:36 ---------------

Code:

global $test; $test = '<h1>hello</h1>';

this is my plugin in global_start, ok?

I want simply to see the contents of the variable $test in header template

if I put $test in header template, $test is empty
