included HTML file

[artpapa]

Hi,
Can you help me please, I use this: http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showthread.php?t=173937

And it’s works perfect, now I have Right Column, with included HTML file.

My question is: I can use $includedhtml in only one place? How can I do same thing with, let's say, the header?
Here is my testing forum: http://www.artpapa.com/forumstest/index.php

Thank in advance,
Alexei

$rightcolumn_html = implode('', file('path/to/this/file/rightcolumn.html'));
$header_html = implode('', file('path/to/this/file/header.html'));

Should be able to use those variables just about anywhere.

0)But just once of each?

Thank you very much it works perfectly.

1) Correct me please if I’m wrong: I can’t just came up with some new variables like $goo_left or $I’m_tired ? I supposed to use existing ones? In other words this $rightcolumn_htm and $header_html already been somewhere in the script? ( Excuse me for dim questions)

2) Here is another little problem I came up with:
Can you help me figure out why after successful includes editing according to this : http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showthread.php?t=173937 my tables screwed up a little?
In the index page in the attachment 1.jpg everything is fine: http://www.artpapa.com/forumstest/, but in the forums and treads (2.jpg) http://www.artpapa.com/forumstest/sh....php?p=2#post2
Main table can not wrap?
thank you again

I invented $rightcolumn_html and $header_html because they seem more logical than $gooleft. You can use any variable name you want, but be careful not to use any of the variables that vBulletin uses (And no, there isn't a list). If you used something like $header, you would break your forum.

The problem is your Forum Jump menu is 400 pixels wide. Either shrink some of the names of your forums, remove Forumjump, or find a Plug-in/Add-on to only show part of the name of each forum.

These forum names are very long:
Online Demonstrations Free oil Painting Lessons, Onetime membership fee teaching zones. Videos pre-s
Classical oil painting technique Knowledge Base. Alexei Antonov's art educational materials.

[artpapa]

Please tell me where I can find these 400 pixels to change?
and where I can move it around Forumjump?

You can't resize the forum jump. It is as wide as the longest forum name you have.

$forumjump is in several templates.

Need help with this!!

Hello! I have been trying and trying to read up on phpincludes and how to make this thing work and I am pretty sure I understand how to insert the html file, but I cannot for the life of me figure out where to put the variable! I would like to have the opposite... want to add html content on the left side of my forum. I just don't know where I am supposed to put the variable to read the html file. Can anyone tell me where to put that? Thanks so much!!

[feldon23]

You've followed this tutorial?

You created a Plugin and then pasted the variable you created in the Plugin into the Template where you want this HTML to appear?

[AFemaleProdigy]

Well..

Yes, I followed that tutorial. I have created the plugin in global_start as instructed, but the question is where do I put the variable in order to get it to show up as a vertical column to the left of the board (the opposite side of where the person starting this thread put their's. I just don't know which template will put my content on the left side. I want to generate content to the left of the board which will show up on all pages. Here is what I am working on... http://womens-health.com

Follow the instructions here to add a left column: http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showthread.php?t=156775

Then, place your variable where it says YOUR CONTENT HERE

Hi,
How can I make it work with the vb4?

$rightcolumn_html = implode('', file('path/to/this/file/rightcolumn.html'));
$header_html = implode('', file('path/to/this/file/header.html'));

Should be able to use those variables just about anywhere.
