Plugin via an external PHP

i've dug up about all i can find on using external php files within vb. they all turn up to be something like this HERE

thats not exactly what im trying to accomplish here though.

so i have an xml, within it i have my plugins and all the PHP for the plugins the one i particularly want to include externally is a misc_start plugin that looks a little like:

Code:

<plugin active="1" executionorder="5">

                        <title>DRC - Secret - Project - Misc</title>

                        <hookname>misc_start</hookname>

                        <phpcode><![CDATA[

A WHOLE LOT OF PHP

                        ]]></phpcode>

        </plugin>

i want to be able to just put all that php into an actual php file the user can upload, then call it from within the xml or something... is there how exactly would i go about that =/

or would i still be doing the same thing as shown in the link at the top? even though this is not a template...

put the php on a file (name.php)

then in your plugin use:

PHP Code:


		
			
require(DIR . '/path/to/file/name.php');

Example:
If you saved the file in the "includes" folder, you would use

PHP Code:


		
			
require(DIR . '/includes/name.php');

you can use require or require_once, it depends on the situation
change the path to file according to where you saved the file in relation to your forum root
