Hi,

I would like to know if it is possible to add files at the top, so
that the forum can act as an instant feedback mechanism.

Could somebody provide me a _general_ idea how to go about it...

Thanks in advance

You can use header.tmpl to add any content you desire to the top of the forum.

Hi,

Sorry, I was a little vague, I guess.

Can I add dynamic content?

Actually a bunch of html files according to the topic.

FOr instance something like this..

<!-- include {VAR: id->topic}.html>

<!-- include {VAR:id->topic}_right.html>

Then _contents_ of these files will be automatically included inside.

In such a case, FUDforum can work as a full fledged content
management system, I mean, if CMF is what I understand it is.

Thanks in advance.

You can use PHP in the header, so if you wanted to include a PHP file you'd do:
<?php
readfile
("/full/path/to/file.html");
?>


You can of course embed variables into the path, but you need to be certain those variables will be set or add appropriate checks to check them.

Hey,

That's damn cool.

Is there a way to embed "IF" statements inside the template file? If
I use php I wont be able to use the template syntax..


if (forum->id == 1) {

// Means it is the article with feedback..

main_section }

else {
main_section }



If that is not possible, could you just point me to the php files
that handles the templates.


Thanks.
