Create Subsection
I am sure this been answered already, I cant seem to find it searching; hopefully somebody could post the link to the page has the solution.
Currently I have only the forum on the domain. I like to create some subsection e.g. marketplace etc. I like to carry over the header and footer as well as the design. I found a solution here that uses template, but I find it really difficult working with php codes on the templates, since there are some limitations. Is there any other way of doing this? |

I think you are seeking to extend your vBulletin site to manage ecommerce pages (or perhaps articles, or perhaps porn) that don't look anything like forums but use the same vBulletin style. You want to manage these along with your forums in a single vBulletin system. Is that what you're asking?
What other solutions did you look at (links would be great) and what were the limitations? |

You said you don't want to use templates, but this really is the easy way - How to create your own vBulletin-powered page! (uses vB templates) or [How-To] vBulletin API Basics: Creating Custom Pages & Misc.
You actually only put html in templates. If you need to do something with php, you put it in the php page and instead of just doing an echo, you assign the results to a variable that you then put in the template. |

I was able to get the html part working. But I needed to do an include, which I was not able to do (I am not much expert in php and vb). Could you direct me some example that does the php on the page? thanks |

Well, any of the vbulletin php pages use this exact method, so those are a good place to start if you want to see php used and then put into the templates. But, there are several other examples in the articles forums:
[How-To] Include PHP In Templates In vBulletin Powered Pages Adding Currently Active Users to your own vB page Create "Latest Threads" Custom Page That's just a couple. But seriously, look at a vbulletin page. |
