[ID25]

i can include to the templates

ex: <?php echo("menu.php"); ?>

i know what in version 1.7 4images this not working, but on 1.7.1 this working ok
and no problem, what you say, there is ok at this version?

ok, are you having problem or what? what is your question? if u looking for an oppinion, then this topic is belong to chit-chat forum, if you are experiencing problem then please tell so.
otherwise look in the FAQ on how to properly include another .php file in the templates.

[ID25]

There is Discussion and topic is  Discussion...

 Discussion about:
or there is bug, or all ok in 1.7.1 version
May i can include <?php echo("file.php"); ?>
there is no problem on that version?

Why i must do this:

Code: [Select]

<?php
include($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']."/images/file.php");
?>

if i can do this in simple mode <?php echo("file.php"); ?>
in 1.7.1 version

[V@no]

1) echo("file.php") will output file.php as a string and not content of the file.php file.
2) the point of the topic in FAQ is that u SHOULD NOT have anything on the same line with <?php and ?> and not about what kind of path must be used for the included file.

P.S. I'm moving this topic in Chit-Chat.

if i put echo("file.php") in home.html there is ok?
if in file.php just HTML code

maybe 4images faster work with this...

[ID25]

Maybe you don't understand me..

I want to make one file for menu and one for banner, why?
because if i change something in one file, in all templates and all pages this info will be changed

What i must do, that site work good and fast?

[V@no]

u dont use echo, u should use include()

[ID25]

ok, thank's

at now i understand that i must do this:

Code: [Select]

<?php
include($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']."/images/file.php");
?>
and only this
in templates...

I still don't understand why you wish to add a PHP file inside your images path.

It should, rather, go like this :

Code: [Select]


<?php
include($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']."/file.php");
?>


That's all there is . . .

[ID25]

Because this php is in images category, not in root(www.mysite.com)

[TheOracle]

So ... the question comes again : Why does it have to be specificly in the images folder ?

[ID25]

because this is from 4images peace of template, 4images installed to "images" dir
why i must cycle all site?

where 4images, there all files for 4images...
all templates use this php from "images" dir

[TheOracle]

all templates use this php from "images" dir

False. PHP files are being executed from - either - the root path of 4images or from a subfolder outside the template path.
