Yes, if that is what you want to show. The html (design and fixed data) part of the form can be put directly into the template, and any dynamic data can be displayed through variables set in the php code.
The basic purpose of templating (whether vbulletin or otherwise) is to separate the front end design from the business logic. The template holds just enough code (actually html with conditionals, not programming code) to show whatever needs to be shown. The template is simply 'shown', and that is why you cannot have php code in there. The vbulletin manual has a section on templates, and reading the default vb templates can be very instructive for newcomers. --------------- Added [DATE]1246858288[/DATE] at [TIME]1246858288[/TIME] --------------- This will work: php: Code:
$htmlform = "<form>........</form>" Code:
$header $navbar $htmlform $footer |

It is explained as well as it can be. The best thing to do is just copy exactly what he did and then analyze it yourself after you get it up and working. If you need further help, the best thing to do is to create your own thread in the main forums and post the exact php file you wrote and the exact template you wrote (both using the php/html tags).

Okay, I accidentally deleted my test file that I finally got working and really can't spend another week reading through all 76 pages of this topic, fun as that was the first time, to find the answer to this simple question. What do I change in this code to make this page viewable by nonmembers?

is there any way to insert html into the template, something like this:
eval('$showhtml = "' .$showhtml . '";'); // with $showhtml containing html I want to convert one of my scripts but if I can't do this it'll be a huge headache. |
