Questions and errors: "Create your own vBulletin page" - receiving errors

[sergioloporto]

Hello, my VB4 CMS is installed here: '/home/user/public_html/myforum

I am using/trying to create a custom page with the same template as in the example. So this is the code of my test.php [the test.php is inside /home/user/public_html/myforum/concorso]:

PHP Code:

<?php

// ####################### SET PHP ENVIRONMENT ###########################
error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE);

// #################### DEFINE IMPORTANT CONSTANTS #######################

define('THIS_SCRIPT', 'test');
define('CSRF_PROTECTION', true);  
// change this depending on your filename

// ################### PRE-CACHE TEMPLATES AND DATA ######################
// get special phrase groups
$phrasegroups = array();

// get special data templates from the datastore
$specialtemplates = array();

// pre-cache templates used by all actions
$globaltemplates = array('TEST',
);

// pre-cache templates used by specific actions
$actiontemplates = array();

// ######################### REQUIRE BACK-END ############################
// if your page is outside of your normal vb forums directory, you should change directories by uncommenting the next line
chdir ('/home/user/public_html/myforum');
require_once('./global.php');

// #######################################################################
// ######################## START MAIN SCRIPT ############################
// #######################################################################

$navbits = construct_navbits(array('' => 'Test Page'));
$navbar = render_navbar_template($navbits);

// ###### YOUR CUSTOM CODE GOES HERE #####
$pagetitle = 'My Page Title';

// ###### NOW YOUR TEMPLATE IS BEING RENDERED ######

$templater = vB_Template::create('TEST');
$templater->register_page_templates();
$templater->register('navbar', $navbar);
$templater->register('pagetitle', $pagetitle);
print_output($templater->render());

?>

Also the template is the same (for testing purposes) as the one of this article: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=228112



In the test.php there is a field:

PHP Code:

// ###### YOUR CUSTOM CODE GOES HERE #####
$pagetitle = 'My Page Title';

fdsfdsga 


But if I add text like the one you see above I get an error:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_VARIABLE in /home/user/public_html/myforum/concorso/test.php on line 46

Question: Why I get that error? What kind of code should go there?
If I want to put some <script> and html, should it go here in the test.php or in the template?

If I in the browser I stay in the test.php page for long time (about 10 - 20 minutes) and then I refresh the page, this is what I get:

Unable to add cookies, header already sent.
File: /home/user/public_html/myforum/concorso/test.php
Line: 1

In order to see the test.php page I need to go to a normal page of the forum, and then I have to go back to the test.php in order to see it without errors.

Question 2: why this is happening? How to resolve it?
