How to include HTML file

[snowname]

In 3.x version, I can add a plugin. $test=implode (file, dir).

Then add $test in a template.

How to do this in 4.x version?

You can pre-register the variable in the template where you will use it, like this:

vB_Template::preRegister('template_name', array('test' => $test));

and then of course you'd use one of

{vb:raw test} or 
{vb:var test}

in the template.

I pre-registered:

$include_defaultpage = implode('', file('/bbs/CCED/float/default.html'));

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

and hooked it at global start


I put {vb:raw include_defaultpage} into the footer template.

However, it does not work.

I tried what you posted above, except that I just used $include_defaultpage = "Foo"; as a test, and it showed up in my footer. Are you sure you're looking at the style with the edited footer? Otherwise, maybe it's not finding your html file?

Edit: also, are you sure you set the plugin to active? I've been known to forget that occasionally.

I also tried $include_defaultpage = "Foo";, It still does not show up.

Here is how I write:

Plugin PHP Code
$include_defaultpage = implode('', file('/bbs/CCED/float/default.html')); 
$include_defaultpage = "test"; 
vB_Template::preRegister('FOOTER',array('include_defaultpage' => $include_defaultpage));

'footer' needs to be lower case. You had it that way before so I guess you probably were trying things.

I just did a test. If I put this plugin in header template. It works.

vB_Template:reRegister('header',array('include_d efaultpage' => $include_defaultpage));

--------------- Added [DATE]1309230334[/DATE] at [TIME]1309230334[/TIME] ---------------

it works now.

I changed /bbs/CCED/float/default.html to CCED/float/default.html

You are right. It did not find the file.

Thanks.
