Conditional for 'Is In Template Group'?

[alegend]

Hi,

I am trying to display a widget only when the visitor is within a standard forum page (eg. showthread, forumdisplay, etc.), but not on my custom pages (eg. xx.com/custom-page.php).

All our custom templates are in the 'Custom Templates' group. Is there a way to detect within a template if THIS_SCRIPT is in a template group? Alternatively is there a conditional to check if the template is a custom template?

Thanks in advance,
R.

Could you define() a value in your custom page then check for that?

Hey kh99, I thought of doing that, but it would mean I'd have to define that value on every page custom template, which is a bit cumbersome.

I was hoping to wrote a conditional against a standard VBulletin value. Thanks for the suggestion though!

I guess probably I don't entirely understand the way you have things set up, but it seems like you would only have to define it at the top of every .php file you have generating a custom page.

ETA: nvm, you probably know what you're doing. Maybe someone else knows...

No worries, thanks for the help anyways.

We're trying to avoid editing into the .php files directly so we can make the templates as portable between our development and live environment.
