Create a new page within my board?

[Kayla]

Otherwise, I would like to keep the navigation buttons, the header and the footer. I just want to create a new page within the forum.

I have searched here and at vbulletin.org for days and I can't find the answer anywhere. The only thing I found is how to recognize a member on another page outside of vb

Someone please help me?

i am a complete newbie when it comes to PHP so i won't be of much help if you have any questions. Here's is what i found on this subject in another thread. Don't know which one exactly since it was awhile ago.

<?
require( "global.php" );

if( $bbuserid ) {

$user = $DB_site->query_first( "SELECT username
FROM user
WHERE userid = $bbuserid" );
$bbusername = $user[ username ];
eval("dooutput(\"".gettemplate('yourtemplatehere')."\");");
} else {
eval("dooutput(\"".show_nopermission()."\");");
} // end if
?>

hopefully this will get you started in the right direction.

.. I got a blank page

Did you create a template to go along with this? Note the 'yourtemplatehere' in the code.

[Kayla]

Yes...

.. and I called it tester.

I tried this code that I found:

require("./global.php");
if ($bbuserinfo[userid]==0) {
show_nopermission();
}
eval("\$header = \"".gettemplate("header",1,0)."\";");
eval("\$footer = \"".gettemplate("footer",1,0)."\";");
eval("dooutput(\"".gettemplate("tester")."\");");


but these lines don't work:

eval("\$header = \"".gettemplate("header",1,0)."\";");
eval("\$footer = \"".gettemplate("footer",1,0)."\";");

So.. I took the code out of the header and placed it within the tester template. I can make it work that way, but will it make the board work harder?

.. I sound so stupid! lol

Use the code posted by ckisner, and place $header and $footer inside the 'tester' template, along with the rest of your HTML code in between.
