Blank Page Template

[wendas]

I may have a fix for Murian & Wyldb.. I am a relative newbie, so don't shoot me for trying, but I saw this error while trying to fix my own..

it is probably this line in your newpagename.php file that is causing it..

Code: Select all

// standard session management 
$userdata = session_pagestart($user_ip, PAGE_TEMPLATE); 

change the PAGE_TEMPLATE to PAGE_NEWPAGENAME

Also before you hit these errors, Although the rest of the mod seemed straight forward, the template.php file had other gottchas.. so here they are..

change TEMPLATE in the following code to newpagename

Code: Select all

$page_title = 'TEMPLATE'; 

Now the line they do tell you to change, change only one template & leave the other alone so that

Code: Select all

$template->set_filenames(array( 
        'body' => 'template.tpl')

becomes

Code: Select all

$template->set_filenames(array( 
        'body' => 'newpagename.tpl')

finally there is one more $template on this page below is the line.. but leave this $template alone.

$template->pparse('body');

Hope this helps. Currently I am still one of the people asking more then responding, but I do like to pay my debts when & where I can..

This is the way we learn.
Thank you greatly Wendas - That fixed it!

...And Now, Off to Bigger and Better NewPages.php

As far as a demo showing you what this mod does...It integrates whatever you want into the forum engine. If you look at my site (follow the WWW image below or the link in my signature) you will find a few pages that aren't forum related and yet still have the forum header and footer. If you where to login to the forum, you would then be able to see yet another page or two.

Thanks, i changed PAGE_TEMPLATE to NEWPAGENAME instead of PAGE_NEWPAGENAME
Altered it but now get this header trouble on first browse, F5 it disapears or if you browse from any other page it's fine, just if you link straight to it

Code: Select all

Warning: Cannot add header information - headers already sent by (output started at /server/mdp/phpBB2/MDP001.php:2) in /server/mdp/phpBB2/includes/sessions.php on line 182

Warning: Cannot add header information - headers already sent by (output started at /server/mdp/phpBB2/MDP001.php:2) in /server/mdp/phpBB2/includes/sessions.php on line 183

on my sessions.php file for those lines i have

Code: Select all

	setcookie($cookiename . '_data', serialize($sessiondata), $current_time + 31536000, $cookiepath, $cookiedomain, $cookiesecure);
	setcookie($cookiename . '_sid', $session_id, 0, $cookiepath, $cookiedomain, $cookiesecure);

Which would explain to me as to why i get the error on first browse and not from when you browse from another page in the forum. Just unfotuntaly my skills fail as to how to fix it
Sorry for bugging you all here!

The reason it appears to work fine is that if you click refresh the page of recently clicked on another page, phpBB checks your session. Once it has your current location, it doesn't check again for about a minute (I haven't actually checked the actual time).

What I have found to be the problem is a mismatch in what you entered in the constants.php or viewonline.php (I can't remember the third file). They are the ones that have the PAGE_NEWPAGENAME lines and newpagename.php location.

[leoz]

a possible solution?

This would be a good idea. It would certainly save allot of confusion. One thing that should also be fixed though. In the section talking about editing the viewonline.php there is an extra character at the end of the text to be added.

#
#-----[ AFTER, ADD ]------------------------------------------
#
case PAGE_NEWPAGE:
$location = $lang['Newpage'];
$location_url = "newpage.$phpEx";
break;.

Note the period (or stop) at the end. If you copy this as written you will get an error on your Who's Online page. It should be copied as follows.

#
#-----[ AFTER, ADD ]------------------------------------------
#
case PAGE_NEWPAGE:
$location = $lang['Newpage'];
$location_url = "newpage.$phpEx";
break;

Just a little info for future users. I believe this was mentioned by murphyz
in an earlier post.

THANKS, I have fixed this in my posting. I don't remember the user's name who posted the 'clowns' example but that coding has the same misplaced period as I had. Glad to help where I can.

[leoz]

leoz: I would suggest increasing the number as you thought. If you don't, you may not see the correct page people are viewing when you look at the Who's Online or the ACP Index.

Thanks again, I was hoping I was right, but like I said I wasn't too sure on this one.

I remember seeing somewhere that this mod is limited to numbers -1045 thru -1049. What happens if we still have more pages to add, other than a possible conflict with other MODs using those numbers after -1049?

Fixed it, lol, somehow i stupidly manage to get a return before the <?php in the template.php file.

DOH!

This post (the example) was supposed to be used as a guide (hence the red text). Reguardless, it's been edited (period removed).

Sorry for the late response.

I think the instruction would be clearer if you just called the new file:

newpage.tpl and newpage.php. if someone doesn't understant, he/she doesn't have to change the name of the file for this to work.

It gets confusing when I see something like:

copy template.php to template.php
copy templates/subSilver/template.tpl to templates/subSilver/template.tpl

But you already told us to rename the template.tpl to what we want. So what do we copy?

There are lots of things in the application that are called template. the word is used everywhere

[ace2ace]

Is this correct? shouldn't we also add the change to overall_header to provide a link? it would be a complete workable thing. Please help clarify.

The copy statements like this are easymod compatable. They say "copy template.php from the mod directory to the phpBB root directory and keep the file named template.php.

copy template.php to template.php

These copy statements will error with easymod.

copy newpage.php to the top directory (phpBB2 by default)
copy newpage.tpl to templates/subSilver/

This is not to say that you can't do this:

copy template.php to newpage.php

Hi, I'm sorry for my absence past weeks, but here is the v2 for this MOD awaiting for validation :

MOD Description: With this MOD you can easily add blank pages to your board.
These pages:
- are totally integrated into phpBB
- are fully administrable by the ACP
- are using session management ( user register, viewonline )
- are under phpBB authorization system
- are linked on the overall_header into a jumpbox (alternative nav menu may be developped)

Demo: not yet
Download: Click here

[Gremlinn]

Poupoune: What is supposed to update the table with data? Also, the items within the root folder need to be brought back one folder level for easymod to work. Or, change the copy lines to copy from root/...

But, the features you mention show promise and definite value.
