adding date at top with global_start

PHP Code:


		
			
$topdate = date("F j, Y");

i put that in a plugin hooked to global_start. then i just call $topdate in my header template. it doesn't work. :/

i used to have that code in the phpinclude_start template, but since that is gone i moved it. can't get it to work.

It worked for me. I'm using 3.5.0 Gold. Did you activate it? I know sometimes I'm in a hurry and forget to...

Ya I did activate it. Here is what I have.

HEADER TEMPLATE:

PHP Code:


		
			
<td height="30" align="right" bgcolor="#2d356e" class="white">$topdate</td>

PLUGIN:

PHP Code:


		
			
Product: vBulletin

Hook Location: global_start

Title: Header date

Plugin PHP Code: $topdate = date("F j, Y");

Plugin is active: YES

I've tried calling the variable in the template with $GLOBAL[topdate] and $GLOBALS[topdate] as well but neither of those work. I am aware of $datenow but it is not in the format that I want.

I've got the same on my board, everything shows up fine. That's strange... you're running 3.5.0 Gold?

Yup, I just downloaded it and upgraded my boards.

OK, nevermind ... complete moron. I didn't know you had to turn the plugin system on until just now. :/ Works perfect.
