I am using VB to include 1 PHP file that is open to requests. These requests load the appropriate files if that's the page being requested. So, this allows a hook to be placed in global_start without actually loading a script and consuming enormous amounts of system resources. The 50,000+ pages are generated from about 10 scripts/programs.

In other words, I am using this script as a hook on global_start with a custom template that has the vb raw variable.

This is my PHP code (Master.php). Seems to work very well so far.

PHP Code:

<?php
global $fnuser,$fnuserid,$msxtotal;
$csl = $_GET['csl']; // Custom Script Location - Single Files with no directories. Mod rewrite on
    if ($csl=='About-Us') {
    require "C/about.shtml";
    $fglink = "About Us";
    $fgptitle = "About Our Business";
    }
    elseif ($csl=='Sitemap') {
    require "C/sitemap.php";
    $fglink = "Sitemap";
    $fgptitle = "Website Sitemap";
    }

mysql_select_db(vb);//Want to select back to VB database just in case another database was selected
?>

Included script on the hook (M.php):

PHP Code:

<?php

// ####################### SET PHP ENVIRONMENT ###########################
error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE);

// #################### DEFINE IMPORTANT CONSTANTS #######################

define('THIS_SCRIPT', 'Master');
define('CSRF_PROTECTION', true);  
// change this depending on your filename

// ################### PRE-CACHE TEMPLATES AND DATA ######################
// get special phrase groups
$phrasegroups = array();

// get special data templates from the datastore
$specialtemplates = array();

// pre-cache templates used by all actions
$globaltemplates = array('CustomMaster',
);

// pre-cache templates used by specific actions
$actiontemplates = array();

// ######################### REQUIRE BACK-END ############################
require_once('./global.php');

// ###### NOW YOUR TEMPLATE IS BEING RENDERED ######
$navbits = construct_navbits(array('' => $fglink));
$navbar = render_navbar_template($navbits);

$templater = vB_Template::create('CustomMaster');
$templater->register_page_templates();
$templater->register('navbar', $navbar);
$templater->register('pagetitle', $fgptitle);
$templater->register('sidebarext', $sidebarext);
$templater->register('sidebaropen', $sidebaropen);  
print_output($templater->render());

?>

Mod-Rewrite Code:

RewriteRule ^C/([^/]+).php$ /FN/M.php?csl=$1 [QSA,L]

Then call it like M.php?csl=About-Us
Mod-Rewrite generates About-Us.php and you're done.
