Inserting PHP Twitter aggregation in footer help

[kh99]

If you use the code in a php widget, you'd probably need to change it to save any output in a string called $output, otherwise it will come out at the top of the page as you saw. If you don't want to go though and change the code, you could also do something like this:

PHP Code:

ob_start();
// put script code or include here
$output = ob_get_contents();
ob_end_clean(); 


You could also do the same thing without a widget (if you want), by putting that code in a plugin and registering the variable to a template, like

PHP Code:

ob_start();
// put script code or include here
$my_output = ob_get_contents();
ob_end_clean();

vB_Template::preRegister('footer', array("my_output" =>$my_output)); 


Then in the footer template use:

{vb:raw my_output}
