Splitting Long/Bulky Templates - Not Working

[nando99]

Ok.. so I've followed Kerry-Anne's instructions from
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=119933

I get the template to show, just no where I want it...


----------------

This is my plugin info:

Plugin Name: testtemp_plugin

Hook Location: parse_templates

Plugin PHP Code: eval('$testtemp = "' . fetch_template('testtemp') . '";');

Plugin Name: Cached - testtemp_plugin

Hook Location: cache_templates

Plugin PHP Code: $globaltemplates = array_merge($globaltemplates, array('testtemp'));

My template name is: testtemp and it contains "Hello World... Testing... "

----------------

Ok so it works fine when I put in the showthread template but not in the postbit template... thats a problem though, because I'm trying to split the postbit template...

I have many conditionals if certain forums, certain post number etc etc and i'd really like to split the template...

Not sure why its not working in the postbit template...

Any help is appreciated, thanks in advance....

postbit is created and processed inside an object, which means your variable is not in scope. You need to bring it into scope with a plugin at postbit_display_complete, and the global keyword.

ok... i think...

so which plugin do I make postbit_display_complete the hook location and what do you mean about global keyword?

thanks in advance, seriously...
