wpeloquin, it is just an example but in the real code there are some calculations needed to be done before displaying the results in the footer
Lynne,
I read the article and modified my plugin to:
PHP Code:
$showdata = 'test';
$templater = vB_Template::create('mytemplate');
$templater->register('showdata', $showdata);
$templater->render();
Then I used the following line in the footer template:
PHP Code:
{vb:raw showdata}
However, still nothing seems to work. Also this seems to have made errors as some links have disappeared from my forum when the plugin is active!
