function generatePage($pagetitle, $navbar, $content, $template='GENERIC_SHELL')
{
        //Page Generation Function by Affix
    $templater = vB_Template::create($template);
    $templater->register_page_templates();
    $templater->register('navbar', $navbar);
    $templater->register('pagetitle', $pagetitle);
    $templater->register('HTML', '<br />' . $content);
    print_output($templater->render());
} 


That way all you really need to do is

PHP Code:

$content = 'Your Content';
$pagetitle = 'Test Content';
$navbits = construct_navbits(array('' => 'Test Page'));
$navbar = render_navbar_template($navbits);
generatePage($pagetitle, $navbar, $content); 


Fairly Simple and it will save space in your Database and it uses what vBulletin already provides you.

Speaking of functions, are you not required to preRegister them as you are with variables?
