Hi everyone. I have some trouble including a php file in my template, will describe the problem below:

I have a template with an header, a navbar, the forum/content, footer and a fixed right bar. I want to insert this php code(for now) into the right bar:

userbox.php

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

userbox plugin:

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

Inside the footer template I have made a div that is fixed and I call the plugin with this code:

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

But it doesn't output my desired string.

The HOOK is parse_templates.

When i in the plugin write echo $userboxinsert; the userbox get's inserted but at the top of the screen, so the link works.

Would be very happy if someone could help me with this problem!

I can add that when I turn debug on, the file is included but it doesn't write out any text!

This line here is registering a variable named $php_include:

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

That line would allow you to use this line in the footer template:

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

If you want to use the variable $userboxinsert, then you need to preregister that variable, not php_include.

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

I am using (vBulletin 4.0.5 Patch Level 6)

Plugin Code:

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

Using Hook: global_start_init_start

To display in header template I tried both below, but I still get no output

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

Can anyone help please

Change the preRegister line to:

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

(or else change the ob_get_contents() line to use $kellysmenu instead of $kbar).

Try using hook parse_templates. If it still doesn't work, try this as a test:

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

BTW, you definitely want to use {vb:raw kellysmenu} in the template (assuming you have some version of vbulletin 4).

Thanks

{vb:raw kellysmenu}
