Finally, a simple thing took care of what i wanted to do. Wonder how i did not thought of that at once. What I did, I just removed $headinclude variable from my custom template AND instead put all the code of headinclude directly into it in replacement of $headinclude. (as it means exactly the same), this allowed me to easily give my own dynamic meta info replacing the old (without template edits, plugins or queries or anything) Works perfect Thanks |

Lynne I love all of your stuff, but even though I am proficient at coding, I am at a loss as to actually follow this tutorial.
I wish to display on the actual custom page, currently active users. My page is: a homegrown creation, called vbquote template named vbquote, php file is vbquote.php code for this is: Code:
<?php // ####################### SET PHP ENVIRONMENT ########################### error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE); // #################### DEFINE IMPORTANT CONSTANTS ####################### define('NO_REGISTER_GLOBALS', 1); define('THIS_SCRIPT', 'vbquote'); // ################### PRE-CACHE TEMPLATES AND DATA ###################### // pre-cache templates used by all actions $globaltemplates = array('vbquote'); // ######################### REQUIRE BACK-END ############################ require_once('./global.php'); // ######################## START MAIN SCRIPT ############################ $navbits = array(); $navbits[$parent] = 'vB Quotations'; $navbits = construct_navbits($navbits); eval('$navbar = "' . fetch_template('navbar') . '";'); eval('print_output("' . fetch_template('vbquote') . '");'); ?> |

You want to show Currently Active Users on there? First, make sure that works as is - like add the code you want to add since I see none there yet (very important!). Then follow the instructions in this article - Adding Currently Active Users to your own vB page

Tried to follow that, but not sure where to add it on our "custom".php page. Do we just whack it anywhere ? |
