wordpress theme header for vbulletin 4 header and footer template
 

Hi,

I have tried lots of ways to add header and footer which includes php code into the header and footer theme of vbulletin 4 but to no avail.

As I understand the style/template in vbulletin does not allow php codes, I have put these header php code into a seperate file as below:

"ob_start();
include('path/to/this/file/wordpress_header.php');
$wordpress_header = ob_get_contents();
ob_end_clean();"

And in the header template of vbulletins, I have added the following before all the code:
{vb:raw wordpress_header}

However, when i view the forum, it is not showing any header at all. Can someone advised me on the wordpress theme and vbulletin integration?

Thank you so much!!

It can't be done. So many problems pop up trying to merge vb+WP

hmmm.. such a important feature yet so hard to be done? :( Any advice from vBulletin?

This site seemed to have integrated the header and footer beautifully without any visible flaws. Maybe you can contact their administrator and see if they will help you:

This actually worked perfectly with older vBulletin version (after some changes). What changed so it's not longer possible to have a plug-in display data in this way?

I tried using a simpler plug-in that just contained: But that didn't show anything either...

Any ideas on this?

I found out that a part of the header.php (mainly includes) is actually included. That raises a couple of questions:

1) Is the output of ob_get_contents() limited to a certain number of characters?
2) Are we using the right hook?

I hope someone can help me out with this.

Im looking for this too, some one knows about it? I already see this modification on other sites so must be some way to have it done :(

updates on this?

I could really use this on bootcamp4me.com

Still nothing eh? bullcrap...

I'm in the middle of a redesign on my site. THe content side is all going to wordpress. I am basically theming Vbulletin to match the new Wordpress site. The downside, I need to update menus / headers / footers in both areas when i make changes.
