rewrite variable from $name to $vbulletin->name

[marocnl]

Hi,

what are the other ways to get the variables:
$stylevar[]
and
$vbphrase[]

like the format $vbulletin->var['']

because I need those for my external PHP which I have includes in the template (and I can't seem to access $vbphrase[] just like that)

Sincerely,

$vbphrase can be accessed (almost) anywhere in vBulletin-powered scripts. There is no class equivalent.

Unfortunately, it does not work. For example if I call $session[dbsessionhash] in my PHP file I get nothing, but if I call $vbulletin->session->vars['dbsessionhash'] I get what I want.

I have included a PHP file with the plugin system, like explained on http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showthread.php?t=173937

Then in the template I call the output of my external script and that works fine.
But when I want to access $vbphrase[good] for example, I get nothing. So that is why I hoped there was a rewrite because that worked with the session info (also with userinfo).

So how can I call $vbphrase[good] in my external PHP file which I include in the template with the plugin option?

There are a few variables that don't have class equivalents ($vbphrase being one of them). $session does have its equivalent, therefore, you can call it via $vbulletin->session->vars. Make sure that you've included the correct phrase groups.

How and where do I do that? I just followed the instructions on how to include a PHP file but can't find anything there about including phrase groups.

Is that also the case for $stylevar or is there a class for that one?
