No one seems to be supporting this thread any more.

This is very very annoying.

glo · #**243** 10-25-2004, 11:57 AM

unfortunately, i have found the same problem with some of Gary's threads.

He is probably too busy.

How do I add a custom template ? I simply cant find ADD button in the template manager. I can Custumize existing template.. but how do I add a new one ?

welo · #**245** 10-26-2004, 08:29 PM

ACP > Styles & Templates > Style Manager > (in dropdown) Template Options > Add New Template

You have to scroll the dropdown selector content up to see it. Caught me off guard the first time too.

ipas2 · #**246** 10-27-2004, 06:06 AM

Thanx man ! I got it now.

Yes I want to know the same thing. I am trying to get a server query to tie into my vb pages. Any help would be awesome!

xeonkiller711 I cured all my problems with news in my page by switching
to the coranto 1.24 news script its much more powerful than cutenews
and I was able to do anything I wanted within vBB using the phpinclude
functions.

let me know if you need any help I am more than willing to share my
configs and code.

JohnBee · #**251** 11-25-2004, 05:13 AM

Anyone know how to call a template from a custom style?

I want to copy and modify some common templates but I don't want things
getting all messy.

How would I pull data from an alternate style other than default?
ex: frontpage style

excellent!

yellow281 · #**254** 11-28-2004, 11:12 PM

Couldnt this be taken one step further and include the categories and sub categories from one of the 50 forums I have to create. It would sure save me a hell of alot of typing setting up ALL these forums when theyre all the same. Be great to do one, then copy them all over doing by doing this and renaming them. Not sure how they would all link together though.. I guess I could set up the master page and have all my 50 categories link to URL's for the other boards. Least they would all be drawing off the same user database to create the larger board I wanted.

Can someone show me if this could be done using this code.. but modified somewhat?

Thanks

Kate

Xtrm2Matt · #**255** 11-30-2004, 04:49 PM

Could someone make some code for me so it displays the posts from a certain forum (with forumid 38) post on the front page of a non-vB powered website? I'd also like templates.

I've tried and failed... someone please help!!!

traderx · #**256** 12-20-2004, 02:51 PM

Ok... I was able to create the page to work in the /forum directory, and it work as posted. But I really want it to work in /forum/glossary directory. I finally was able to get it to work to show the header and footer AND the test template, BUT it doesn't use my CSS for the formatting, could this be because I am using it saved as a file, or did I forget to add something as this is not in the /forum directory but in my /forum/glossary directory. Any help on this would be great as I could really use this.

Code:

<?php

// ####################### SET PHP ENVIRONMENT ###########################
error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE);

// #################### DEFINE IMPORTANT CONSTANTS #######################
define('NO_REGISTER_GLOBALS', 1);
define('THIS_SCRIPT', 'test1'); // 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(

);

// ######################### REQUIRE BACK-END ############################
chdir('/home/jaxen/public_html/4xtraders/forum/');
require('./global.php');

// #######################################################################
// ######################## START MAIN SCRIPT ############################
// #######################################################################

$navbits = array();
$navbits[$parent] = 'Test Page';

$navbits = construct_navbits($navbits);
eval('$navbar = "' . fetch_template('navbar') . '";');
eval('print_output("' . fetch_template('test') . '");');

?>

Done this and much more now without using any CMS's or anything, just code.

I have stats.. news.. log-in form.. user information.. and more on a non-vB page using only code now.

Thanks anyway

I know its old but you wont get support from this guy since he stole the idea from somewhere else.

I wasn't bragging, notice I quoted myself stating "I no longer need help with this".

Dionysis · #**263** 12-31-2004, 10:31 PM

i did this hack for the .js files

"$vboptions[bburl]" in headerinclude

along w/ the chmod('/vbulletin/'); for globals.php

but the breadcrumbs still don't work properly... it's weird since a "view source" shows an absolute path to the .js files (so what could possibly be wrong?)

2ndly,
i'd like to create more pages outside of the forum index, is it possible to have database driven pages for these things (instead of creating a new test_x.php for each, which is totally unreasonable). the use would be to somehow integrate my current article system w/ vbulletin so that i can use all the vbulletin functions on those pages.

n_wattam · #**264** 01-02-2005, 12:13 AM

Hi, i did the test example and it worked great cheers, how ever i dont want to call the template from its own file, instead i want to call the template within an exisiting one...

Does anyone know how to do this... Lets say for argument sake we are are going to call the template and display it under the navbar... Therefore i would need the correct code which i would then place in the navbar template..

ResaleBroker · #**265** 01-02-2005, 12:23 AM

That works great! Thank You!

ogden2k · #**266** 01-11-2005, 11:28 PM

How can I get this to work in a separate folder? I used this code:

PHP Code:


			
// ######################### REQUIRE BACK-END ############################

chdir('/home/public_html/forums/');

require_once('./global.php');

But I have the CSS saved in a file and it's broken now. How do I resolve this issue?

if your css has broken, just go to your ACP and go to edit style or templates and save it, vb3 will save a new css file in your server.

the code you used is correct.

eval('$varible_NAME = "' . fetch_template('template_NAME') . '";');

if you want to have something under navbar (or anything else) in your custom (non-vb) files place that line in the file and in the template which was created with:

eval('print_output("' . fetch_template('TEMPLATE_NAME') . '");');

call out $varible_NAME, you can place it everwhere you want to.

and in vb3 files, well...just repeat the process ^^

pay attention: the file names could be whatever you want, it doesn't have to be exactly like the template names. It's just easier for you if you use the file names same as templates. so it's possible to create your own database driven pages, if you notice that's how people making hacks ^^

ogden2k · #**268** 01-17-2005, 09:25 PM

No, there is nothing wrong with my CSS. I save the CSS as a file and the java script does not work either when I try to use subdomain.binarydreams.us/index.php with the code I mentioned.

With this code, I can get the page to "display" properly but the "links" are not correct. They are pointing to the "root" directory but my forum is in a folder/directory titled "forums."

Any ideas?

wrang · #**270** 02-08-2005, 05:37 PM

Thanks for a great thing. It?s work fine with 3.0.6
Like this

Is it possbile to have a include site insted of the text.

If it works how should i do to have the ReviewPost included

http://www.saltvattensguiden1.se/produktguide/

You will have to change all your links to include the full URL like this

Code:

a href="$vboptions[bburl]/register.php?$session[sessionurl]">

wrang,

Reviewpost has an option to use the vBulletin styles by default. You don't need to use this hack.

If they had i would use it

Photopost is intergrate with Vbulletin but not the Reviewpost :ermm:

So any clue

ogden2k · #**274** 02-09-2005, 01:07 PM

Has anyone successfully setup this hack so it works in a different folder? Such has public_html\foldername?

I made a few posts about this awhile back (p18) and none of the suggestions help.

SVTBlackLight01 · #**275** 02-09-2005, 07:02 PM

It's working fine for me with 3.0.3. I have a few directories set up outside vb.

keymistress · #**276** 02-15-2005, 04:50 AM

i've got it working so far but need help with some extras, say i want someone with 500 or more posts to have access to the page how do i retrieve that info? is it possible to retrieve the username as a variable as well? cos i need these info for a form, thanks in advance!

Adrian Schneider · #**277** 02-15-2005, 05:20 AM

PHP Code:


			
if ($bbuserinfo[posts] >= 500)

{ 

    eval('print_output("' . fetch_template('template_name') . '");');

}

else 

{

    print_no_permission();

}

This should work.
For username, it is just $bbuserinfo[username]. $bbuserinfo[fieldname] displays the field value of the member browsing the page. (so you can use tons of others as well).

keymistress · #**278** 02-15-2005, 05:28 AM

right, thanks! got it working!

Is it possible to create my pages in Dreamweaver, and put this vbulletin code around it so I get the header and footer + verfication thing working.??
