Where are the PHP header and footer of vBulletin

[sunshineyos]

Hey All,

I need to find the header and footer functions/files of the vBulletin forum system.

Does anyone know where those are located?

Thanks.

I think you mean the 'header' & 'footer' templates.

AdminCP -> Styles & Templates -> Style Manager.

What I mean is -

I need to load a PHP function everytime a page is loaded on my vBulletin forum - that is why I need to know where is the php file that is being loaded every time and retrives the header and the footer (retrieves the styles)

[Marco van Herwaarden]

Then you probably mean ./global.php

[sunshineyos]

Yes, Maybe global.php is where those header and footer are - but do you have ANY idea what functions are being called for loading the header and footer?

[Opserty]

PHP Code:

eval('$header = "'. fetch_template('header') .'";'); 


Probably...

If you want to load something on every page then use the global_start hook location for a plugin...

[sunshineyos]

Thank you, you are right I found the header at init.php

Now I have a different problem - since I edited some things at the init.php file - I got a message on my control pannel : "Crack attempt detected. Your ip ... loggen and notify sent to our security department"... - Why ???

[Opserty]

Undo your changes and make use of the Plugin System use the global_start hook as I suggested above.

Hey again,

Now a new problem just popped up - my system uses a $db variable too for my database management. Since the vBulletin uses a $db var too - it makes the system go crazy!

Is there's ANY way to change the $db var of vBulletin for a different name? (I can't change mine since ALL of my web system uses that var)...

Any Suggestions to solve that problem???

You could try $vbulletin->db.
