Problems with phpinclude_start??

[TeH Z0mB1E]

im not sure if its a hack thing or a forum error, but the phpinclude_start templates on my forum aren't responding to any script in them... they just comepletly ignore it.. is there anything i can do? ive tried making new schemes and tried reverting and re-editing the template already but it just ignores me everytime.

The code in my phpinclude_start templates is

// Miserable Hack for vB3 
    // Ported by KuraFire to vB3, original vB2 version by Zzed 
    // ##################################################  ##### 
    // Put the id of your Miserable Usergroup here: 
    $miserableid = 16; 
    
// Check to see if the user is a Miserable User 
if (is_member_of(array('userid'=>$bbuserinfo['userid'], 'usergroupid'=>$bbuserinfo['usergroupid'], 'membergroupids'=>$bbuserinfo['membergroupids']), $miserableid)) 
    { 
        $glitch = rand(60, 120); 
        for($x=0; $x<$glitch; $x++) 
        { 
            echo ' '; 
            sleep(1); 
        } 
     
        $vboptions['floodchecktime'] *= 10; 
        $glitch = rand(0, 100); 
        if($glitch < 90) 
        { 
            $vboptions['enablesearches'] = 0; 
        } 
     
        $glitch = rand(0, 100); 
       if ($glitch < 75) 
       { 
           eval('$headinclude = "' . fetch_template('headinclude') . '";'); 
           eval('$header = "' . fetch_template('header') . '";'); 
           eval('$footer = "' . fetch_template('footer') . '";'); 
           eval('$timezone = "' . fetch_template('timezone') . '";'); 
           eval('$gobutton = "' . fetch_template('gobutton') . '";'); 
           $vboptions['useforumjump'] = 0; 
           eval(print_standard_error('error_toobusy')); 
       } 
    
        $glitch = rand(0, 100); 
       if ($glitch < 80) 
        { 
            if ($glitch < 50) 
            { 
                exit; 
            } 
        $templatecache['headinclude'] = '<META HTTP-EQUIV=\"refresh\" CONTENT=\"5; URL=$vboptions[forumhome].php\" />' . $templatecache['headinclude']; 
        } 
    } 
    unset($ids, $glitch, $miserableid, $x); 
if ($forumid == 17,18,19) { 
  $vboptions['enablecensor'] = 0; 
}

that is 2 seperate hacks.. neither are working, ive tried making a new scheme, ive tried just using one hack and not the other... ive been through all my forum options to see if something needs turning on to activate the phpinclude_start.. but i cant find anything.. anyone else having this prob or anyone know what to do? would be greatly appreciated.

Revert the template, then try echo'ing some text to see if it really is or isn't working:

PHP Code:

echo("Testing the phpinclude template");

reverted and changed the code to that, and it still does nothing.

i knew it wasn't working all along, i posted this at vB.com and they told me to post it here. so what do i do now?

Check your global.php file for these lines:

	'phpinclude_start',
	'phpinclude_end',

should be around line 309.

If it is there then check for this section:

PHP Code:

// parse PHP include
if (!is_demo_mode())
{
    @ob_start();
    eval(fetch_template('phpinclude_start', -1, 0));
    $phpinclude_output = @ob_get_contents();
    @ob_end_clean();
}

both are present and correct :S

Curious to know how you solved that problem? I have the same. The end works but not the start.

[StangLuverJ]

same problem here.

100% same thing here. maybe you need that ob start $ it must be wrapped in that.
