Want to create your very own vBulletin powered page which includes the header, footer, and the user permissions system as well?
Well now you can
Want to know how it will look? Take a look at the attached screenshot below!
Now includes the Who's Online modification! Also, instructions included on how to create your own pages that are integrated with current vBulletin files!
I'm going to give you a generic page but you can easily modify the contents of the page by changing the template
So here we go
Instructions:
Create a new file, whatever you want to call it (let's say test.php).
Open up test.php and add the following (replace TEST with whatever template you want to show):
PHP Code:
<?php
// ####################### SET PHP ENVIRONMENT ########################### error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE);
// #################### DEFINE IMPORTANT CONSTANTS ####################### define('NO_REGISTER_GLOBALS', 1); define('THIS_SCRIPT', 'test'); // 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(
Be sure to change 'TEST' to the actual template name, and change 'test' to the filename. Also, change 'Test Page' to whatever you want to show in the navbar, such as 'Viewing Member Profile' (just an example).
Now create the template, called TEST with the following content:
Replace 'xxx' with whatever you want ?do= in the query string to be (for example, replace 'xxx' with 'showprofile' so then someone would type in example.php?do=showprofile to view this template.) Then of course, change TEMPLATE_XXX to your template name, it's that simple!
I was gonna open a thread same as that but it's good to see that it's already opened.
Some months ago, I thought how can I do an own page in the vB forum.. I checked the codes of official files.. It took my 2 month to understand that I need eval('print_output("' . fetch_template('templatename') . '");');
About ?do= thing you added at the bottom, I want to make a popup for vbshout. so you have http://url.com/vbshout.php as the main one, but when you type in http://url.com/vbshout.phpdo=popup a new mini window will popup so you can go all around the forum and be able to type in it. How would I be able to do that?
im pretty sure to create a custom page, the link has to be in the root diretory...is there a way to get the custom page on another link like tournaments/index.php?

Replace 'xxx' with whatever you want ?do= in the query string to be (for example, replace 'xxx' with 'showprofile' so then someone would type in example.php?do=disclamer to view this template.) Then of course, change TEMPLATE_XXX to your template name, it's that simple!
Any reason why this would work on an install with the default vB skin and *not* with a customised skin (with the TEST template created in each?) As in, it is blank when selecting the custom style. I confirm again the correct templates are there.
