    $templater->register('cistwitter', $cistwitter); 
    $templatevalues['cistwitterarray'] = $templater->render(); 
vB_Template::preRegister('vbcms_content_article_page', $templatevalues); 


Then I created a template named vbcms_twitter that had only the word 'test' in it. Then I edited the vbcms_content_article_page template and just under the css line at the top I added {vb:raw cistwitterarray}. Now when I view an article I get "test" at the top, so that seems to work.

When you want to use the user's actual twitter profile field, the $userinfo won't work. You could use $vbulletin->userinfo, but that would show each user their own profile field, and I have a feeling that's not what you want. If you want the article author's twitter field, I'm not sure how to do that offhand.

That does work. It looks like my issue is $userinfo is not available on the CMS, so..

PHP Code:

$cistwitter = $userinfo["field{$vbulletin->options['cistwitterprofilefield']}"]; 


does not work because of userinfo. How can I make this available?

--------------- Added [DATE]1417847973[/DATE] at [TIME]1417847973[/TIME] ---------------

when I try the below I get my profile field6 instead of the person who posted the article

PHP Code:

$cistwitter = $vbulletin->userinfo['field6'];
