Hi to Everyone,

I am soooo pleased to have found this board.

I have just attempted to setup vb 3 and am having some trouble. I (as aministrator) have posted a welcome thread on each topic (3).

Users can register and login but can do nothing else. As soon as they go to another page, they are forgotten as if they are unregistered users.

Cookies? sessionID? HELP!!

thank you

Hi,

I have decided to but the latest version and delete the other one.

I am now considering writing a board myself from scratch as it may be quicker than trawling through VB interface trying to establish how to make a simple change!

All I want to do is insert an a php include for a header for the main site menu bar nut there is no place to put it without inserting at the top of every page manually.

I also want the whole thing to sit in the second column of a 2 column table but again there is no place for this!

I simply want to get this at the top of the bb:-

<?php
include("/header.php");
?>

and the whole site to sit in the following table:-

<table width="760" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
<tr>
<td width="131">&nbsp;</td>
<td width="629">WHOLE VBB IN HERE</tr>
</table>

Please help!!!!!

I cant help with the forums in a table part, thats over my head, but..

To do a file include Open the phpincude_start template and paste this code at the bottom. The require line being the path to the file

ob_start();
require("http://www.yoursitename.com/header.php");
$header2 = ob_get_contents();
ob_end_clean();

The portion where it says $header2, you can make that whatever you want, but it has to be a template that does not exist, and header by itself already exists.

then, open the header template, find


<img src="$stylevar[titleimage]" border="0" alt="$vboptions[bbtitle]" /></a></td>
<td align="$stylevar[right]">

and paste $header2 or what ever you called it above right after it

HTH

hmmm, thanks, now the admin panel has disappeared too.

Thanks for your help, but vbb is a total waste of money.

Oh well,

Well, that doesn't make sence, but, hey, you do what you got to do.

Good luck with whatever you use as a different solution.
I'll tell you one thing though, you wont find anythign better.

Take care

I've no ideal as where you got the "header.php" from, but what I'd suggest is go and open a support ticket in the members area and ask for help from there. ;)
