Hi there guys, been having a spot of bother recently trying to figure out the forum block system with it's ability to parse html and php.
Been trying to add a Teamspeak 3 Viewer to a forum block which would be at the side of the forums, and I'm rather stumped as to why it isn't working, found out early on it doesn't do the whole <?php & ?> thing so i dug around and found vbulletin uses things like :
Code:
ob_start();
echo 'my output';
$output = ob_get_contents();
ob_end_clean();
return $output;
Which does indeed output it correctly, however when i try and find out where to place these in the viewer.php file i either get a complete white screen for the vbulletin index page, or the block doesn't show up, below i have a sample of the viewer.php code, i won't put up my attempts at implementing the ob_start etc as the attempts have been rather vast
Additionally i currently have it set as an iframe for the moment, its not perfect however since the forum block doesn't automatically adjust to channels being added, lots of people coming and going, the viewer ends up running off the block so you can't see who else is there, or even any of the other channels.
Any insight into how i could pull this off and understand how forum blocks operate for future block additions/modifications would be most appreciated, many thanks!
