I'm starting to integrate the forum into my site, in the HEADER template i added the code for my navigation which is betwen <?php ?> tags, it just shows the code on the actual forum page

The templates don't process the php because they are not meant to have php in them. All the php processing is designed to be done in the php files.
What I would do is search for the php file that calls that template (I think it's global.php). Put your php in that file before it calls the template, assign the output to a variable and then put that variable in the place you want it to show in the template.

No need to edit PHP files. You can place PHP in a Plugin (AdminCP > Plugins & Products > Add New Plugin). Assign any output to a specific variable and use that variable in the template.

Duh, spaced on the plugin system for some reason

thanks..

what would hook location be if i want it in the HEADER template.

and what would the hook be? it doesnt seem to have field to set it

Opserty · #6 07-22-2008, 08:12 PM

Hook location: global_start or global_setup_complete

halliday06 · #7 07-22-2008, 08:14 PM

No you would create variable in the plug-in and fill it with data

PHP Code:


			
$myvariable= "<strong> THIS IS MY VARIABLE DATA </strong>";

Then in your template add $myvariable

halliday06 · #9 07-22-2008, 09:26 PM

hmm its not working for me. nothing appears

i chose global_start for hook location,execution order: 5

i put the variable $alnav in my template where i wanted it to appear

this is sort of the code i am using:

any ideas?

PHP Code:

How your doing it is a bit off. What you want to be in the $alnav is the end result code you want shown on the page. So it would be something like:

Code:

unset($alnav);
if (empty($p)) {
$alnav .= "<li><a href=\"../?p=home\" onMouseOut=\"MM_swapImgRestore()\" onMouseOver=\"MM_swapImage('home','','../images/nav/nav_home_h.gif',1)\"> 
            	<img src=\"../images/nav/nav_home_a.gif\" id=\"home\" /></a></li>";
			} else {
				if ($p == 'home') {
$alnav .= "<li><a href=\"../?p=home\" onMouseOut=\"MM_swapImgRestore()\" onMouseOver=\"MM_swapImage('home','','../images/nav/nav_home_h.gif',1)\"> 
					<img src=\"../images/nav/nav_home_a.gif\" id=\"\home\" /></a></li>";
				} else {
$alnav .= "<li><a href=\"../?p=home\" onMouseOut=\"MM_swapImgRestore()\" onMouseOver=\"MM_swapImage('home','','../images/nav/nav_home_h.gif',1)\"> 
					<img src=\"../images/nav/nav_home_l.gif\" id=\"\home\" /></a></li>";
				}
			}
