UseBB Community

Is there any special function required to use the UseBB template and create new pages within the forum?

I'm a PHP coder, so I can do some customization, I just wanted to know if there is any existing convention to create other pages.

Regards.

You just create a new .php file and start with:

<?php

define('INCLUDED', true);
define('ROOT_PATH', './');
require(ROOT_PATH.'sources/common.php');
$session->update('pagename'); // please edit
require(ROOT_PATH.'sources/page_head.php');
$template->set_page_title($lang['Page']);

// over here you can do the processing
// and parsing templates

require(ROOT_PATH.'sources/page_foot.php');

?>

Note the pagename and page title you have to alter. It is recommended to create a language file if you want to support multiple languages. Additional sections are loaded with:

$lang = $functions->fetch_language('', 'section');

Of course, you also create a new template section and parse it the same way it is done in other files.

Thanks Dietrich!

Related to the earlier problem, now I'm trying in Opera for Windows and it seems to accept cookies on this board. Is there any specific cookie domain setting I should use on my own forum when using the board on a subdomain?

Again IE 6.0 is not accepting cookies from this board. I wonder why this is the case. I'm pretty sure the browsers work with other forum software. Strange...

Please keep the posts related to that problem in the right topic, instead of going off-topic in others.
