How to create your own vBulletin-powered page! (uses vB templates)

![]() Rating:
![]() Want to create your very own vBulletin powered page which includes the header, footer, and the user permissions system as well? Well now you can ![]() Want to know how it will look? Take a look at the attached screenshot below! ![]() Now includes the Who's Online modification! ![]() Also, instructions included on how to create your own pages that are integrated with current vBulletin files! ![]() I'm going to give you a generic page but you can easily modify the contents of the page by changing the template ![]() So here we go ![]() Instructions: Create a new file, whatever you want to call it (let's say test.php). Open up test.php and add the following (replace TEST with whatever template you want to show):
Be sure to change 'TEST' to the actual template name, and change 'test' to the filename. Also, change 'Test Page' to whatever you want to show in the navbar, such as 'Viewing Member Profile' (just an example). Now create the template, called TEST with the following content:
All done ![]() Now check it out by going to test.php ![]() Who's Online Modification Now if you want to show who is browsing this new page of yours, just open up includes/functions_online.php and find:
Below, add:
(Be sure to change the values to your own!) Then find:
Below add:
All done! ![]() ---------------------------------- Also if you want to create your own pages 'within' current vBulletin files, do the following: Open the file you want, and then right before the final ?> in the source code, add the following:
Replace 'xxx' with whatever you want ?do= in the query string to be (for example, replace 'xxx' with 'showprofile' so then someone would type in example.php?do=showprofile to view this template.) Then of course, change TEMPLATE_XXX to your template name, it's that simple! ![]() edit by Lynne: If running 3.8.4 or above, see this post to take care of the PHP 5.3.0-related problems - http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showp...postcount=1171 Last edited by Lynne; 21 Aug 2009 at 03:01..

This is great! I assume the template standard condtionals will work here?
What's the best way to use this on a non-vb page?

SVT. I believe that as long as global is called via the files, the conditionals will work.

![]() Try it yourself - install this hack and you'll see the user/pass login part at the top ![]() Also if guests are not allowed to view your forums, then they can't view these new pages you create, etc. ![]() No members have liked this post.

![]() Anyways, what do you mean Zachery? That I copied your tutorial..? I never even knew you released one (to add to that, I never even seen you around here before ![]() For 'tutorials' such as generic as this one, I don't think that there is really any proprietorship for anyone since it can be displayed in many forms; I haven't seen yours but I bet that mine is at least noticeably different from yours.
