custom template

[XxBuLLeTz]

is there anyway i can create groups for custom templates...i would want it to be named leagues and then have registration, participants, etc, under that group.

ill do an example..

FORUMHOME TEMPLATES >> (when you click that, this comes up:

FORUMHOME HOME
FORUMHOME_event
FORUMHOME_forumbit
etc.

I want to know how to make a group like FORUMHOME TEMPLATES...execpt i want mine to be called leagues, and when you click that, other custom templates pop up.

Hook 'template_groups', insert:

PHP Code:

$only['TEMPLATEPREFIX'] = 'Gorup Name'; 


For example:

PHP Code:

$only['test'] = 'Test'; 


That would show any template prefixed with test (ie. test_event) under the heading 'Test Templates'.

Thanks alot. How would I add more than one template to the group?

I have one more question. Is there anyway I can create a custom page that doesnt have to be on the root directory.

1./ Just add templates with test_ prefix.
2./ Yes, change all ./'s to ../

PHP Code:

chdir('./forum/');

$navbits = array();
$navbits[$parent] = 'Test Page';

Sometimes, common sense comes into play .
