That is still working for me Tamtams. I copied that code directly into a new plugin that I created especially to test this. I then created a custom template called threadworks and then added {vb:raw threadworks} to the threadbit template.
Are you definitely adding the above variable (vb:raw thing) into the correct template i.e. threadbit. If you're trying to use it in one of the other templates then that'll be why. You need to pre-register it exactly for the template you're trying to use it in.
Granted my threadworks template that I created just has Testing123 in there but its working as I'd expect. Remember this will be showing in the thread listing (inside a forum) and not inside the thread itself (I doubt you're making that mistake but just mentioning the obvious lol).
As far as I can see either you're doing something different to the above or something is seriously going crazy on your forums lol. Especially if you're trying just a test message in your template. If the test message works then that'll obviously point to the template itself causing the issue but if not then I don't know what else to suggest.
EDIT: You haven't been trying to use {vb:raw custom_template} with the above plugin code have you?
If so then that'd be wrong lol. The pugin code above registers the $custom_template variable for use inside the threadworks template and the threadworks variable for use inside the threadbit template. So {vb:raw custom_template} with your plugin code will only show it's contents at the moment inside the threadworks template of yours.
Hah nope, I wasn't using {vb:raw custom_template }, I am using {vb:raw threadworks) . This issue has ben racking my head though! Consolegaming - could you just copy and paste the exact code your using so I can ensure I have replicated it properly on my local install! That would likely help me quickly identify why it is not working...
Thanks!
