$includedphp = ob_get_contents();
ob_end_clean();
vB_Template:reRegister('ad_global_below_navbar',array('includedphp ' => $includedphp));


but i get an error……


why?

[Trevor Hannant]

What error do you get? Which template are you trying add this to?

[markoxaser]

the template name is called ad_global_below_navbar

i get an error

Fatal error: Call to a member function query_first_slave() on a non-object in /forum/includes/class_bootstrap.php on line 894

[markoxaser]

anyone can help me? there's no way to include this simple php???

Try wrapping your code within this tag:

<vb:literal>
Your code here
</vb:literal>

If that does not work then you will need to try asking for help with this at the vB mod site: www.vbulletin.org

error:


Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '<' in /home/marko85/domains/justoverclock.com/public_html/forum/global.php(29) : eval()'d code on line 38

Exactly what are you putting in a plugin and which hook location are you using? And exactly what are you putting in a template and which template are you putting it in. Please use the code/html tags.

[markoxaser]

ok....

here the plugin code:

ob_start();
  include('inclusion/inclusion.php');
  $includedphp = ob_get_contents();
  ob_end_clean();
vB_Template::preRegister('ad_global_below_navbar',array('includedphp ' => $includedphp));

used hook:
GLOBAL START

i want to include this:

http://forum.justoverclock.com/inclusion/inclusion.php

is an include from wordpress post (mysql)

i want to include this code in the template:

ad_global_below_navbar

[Lynne]

From reading the error, it sounds like the problem is something in your php file. Also, you realize global_start is deprecated? And are you sure the path to the file is correct?

You really should be posting for help with this over on vbulletin.org, the modification site. There have been several threads about this before over there.

i have a thread in vbulletin.org without answer

here the inclusion.php

here my inclusion-config.php

$wCol3 = "30%";
$inc_title1 = "Ultime 2 news";
$inc_title2 = "Ultime 10 news";
$inc_title3 = "xxxxxxx";
?>

i don't know if the hook is correct

i want to see this inclusion under the navbar (above adsense) in this site

http://forum.justoverclock.com - make sure you set the skin JUSTWHITE

I think the problem is, that $db allready exists from vB and your code is overwriting it.

Try to use

$databasevB = $db;
// your code
$db = $databasevB; 

Maybe this could work!

[markoxaser]

ok i think is that the way!!!!!!

now i'm not have any error, but if i put the code

{vb:raw $includedphp}

nothing appear…..why?


hear my plugin:

ob_start();
  include('inclusion/inclusion.php');
  $includedphp = ob_get_contents();
  ob_end_clean();
vB_Template::preRegister('ad_global_below_navbar',array('includedphp ' => $includedphp));

[Removed-836727]

{vb:raw includedphp} and not {vb:raw $includedphp}

[markoxaser]

nothing appear :O

[markoxaser]

is impossible, i put the code

{vb:raw includedphp}

in many template....

but nothing appear!

justoverclock.com/forum/inclusion/inclusion.php (works!)

hook is set to global start.....

what can i do now?
