Thanks for the pointers - I'll have a look at the guides and work something out then see what happens

Okay. I've read the guides but I am at a loss as to exactly what I should be doing here.

From my point of view I shouldn't need to register a variable that is already part of the vBulletin core variables.

So, maybe my question should be: How do I make the {vb:raw bookmarksites} accessible in the footer template? Where do I have to register this variable for it to be used in the footer? Don't get me wrong - I know how to handle PHP coding and all that but vBulletin's template system is downright confusing. I mean - I can't write raw php in these templates without some long-winded process explained in the guide linked to by Lynne - which hairbrain thought that up?! :down:
