Anyone know how to modify the templates so that they work with this hack? Namely, the breadcumb and footer.
I am running into a problem right now because my forum is installed on /forums/ but I want to have these pages located in / instead. Since vB doesn't output full path, my URL for those two templates are http://domain.com/page.php, which gives noting but fugly 404's. I've tried <if condition="THIS_SCRIPT == 'lega'">forum/</if> but that doesn't work at all as nothing comes up! Is there any thing that I'm missing on? Does anyone know how to fix it? |

As far as the (footer) links using the right path. It's been discussed plenty in this thread. A few posts up in post 271 nad again here in post 125.
To solve the navbar issues, I created a new navbar for the non-vb pages and hardcoded the breadcrumb links. |

Hi,
Could anyone email (or post) some code to display the current active users on the forum on a NON-VB page? Such as: There are current xx users online - x registered - x guests ..etc? I don't think it'd be too hard but obviously it's too hard for me! ![]() Thanks a lot if anyone can help, Matt |

Hi.
A bit late question here baybe, hope you still help out. I am about to make a "results" page, with your mod. I want to make a drop down list (without links) that shows the latest races won. Anyway, how can i make a drop-down list like the 'Quick Links', just inside your mod? (not in navbar ![]() Regards, Challenge |

I want to integrate only certain aspects of the forums into my site. I want to stay away from templates.
Mainly I want to get the information thats generating on the welcome/home page for the forums into the new site. If the visitor is not logged in then the login form replaces the user CP. Any suggestions ? |

Is there a way to use an include function and call some other .php
data into this page? When I try it, it never shows any data past the "eval templates" I need to display some none vBul. data in a page as well and I cannot use the php include start methgos because the file is static (changes) for every user. |

Im not understanding this hack. Is this a replacement for the cpms system? Where I could take my current homepage, and just make php includes to call whatever info i want?

No it's the basic script vBulletin uses for all of its pages. You could make it into anything you want.
![]() Personally I did this for all my custom content, more control this way rather than using a CMS, but if you're not much of a coder, go with the CMS. |

Would this page need to be altered much, if at all for v3.5? I've yet to try it, but has anyone had success?

It should work the same in 3.5, except the WOL stuff which can be done with Plugins now.

This hack works fine for me when logged in...however, when I am not logged in...I get this error message on a blank white page:
Unable to add cookies, header already sent. Line 2 Thanks for the help. Edit: PROBLEM fixed...It was white space I had left before the <?php at the top. |

through variables in your php include start template, you cannot do any php include straight from your pages. (which is quite limiting) otherwise I would use it all over my site. |

I've read all 21 pages of this and have the same qu a number of others had.
I can get this to work within my forums directory - which is great, thank you, especially for additional info pages. But I want it working outside my forum directory in my own folder as I have a lot of other pages i simply want to integrate the navbar/login aspect with. I have tried the suggestions eg chdir and stating which directory I am working in and I've tried commenting out the template call in preference of my own text and also tried someone suggestion of putting $vbulletin[bburl] at the top. my navbar and vb header scripts etc.. all have full url so the links should work - if they ever show lol! like others all I get is a blank page which suggests its not finding something. Can someone repost this script as though it were for a page that resides outside the forums as no doubt it is simply an incorrect pathway or similar on my part - eg I get lost with the ../howmanydots../andslashes./beforethefolder/ Many Thanks |

Hi Thanks for the Hack! Ive created a couple of pages.
I put some php coding into the template in ACP to run a news feed but it doesnt work, just shows the coding on the page. Can these templates use php coding? or just scrictly HTML? Is there a way around this, would I have to put that php code within the .php file for it to work? Thanks |

Put it in the PHP file, instead of using echo/print use variables, then just put the variable in the template. If that is too much work, I think you can use something like this:

Well post your PHP file, hard to tell what you're trying to do without seeing it. Revert = delete, unless it is a default template, then it just goes to the unedited version (or inherited).

Anyone know how to make it use just one style, instead of the style the user is currently on?
