I have studied the tutorial section on how to included php files.

I want to include my header template as a file on my server, instead of pasting it into the area in the style manager.

So I have created a plug-in attached to the global_start hook:

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

In the style manager, in the header template, is:

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

So far, so good. It works somewhat - the header file (on my server as /forum/kl_templates/header.php is indeed included.) The problem is that there are images in the header which are referenced as (example):

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

These images cannot be located. It seems that this variable is not available?

Also, there are some php variables in the header template, that are just getting printed out, instead of the actual php code.

Do I need to put an eval() somewhere in the above code? Kind of lost on this... thanks.

Actually, looking at the HTML source shows that the php in the header is not being executed. the URL of the images still show up as $stylevar[...], so obviously I need to be doing something different to get the php in the header.php file to actually execute, but what?

Try this in your plugin.

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

Then use the same code in your template.

Thanks for the reply - but I tried it and it doesn't get any different result. The php is still not executing. Here is a slightly simplified version of the kl_templates/header.php file:

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

Thank you for you reply, but again (sadly), it did not work. Same result. Very strange, I agree. I also believe an eval() is needed, but so far, it is not working....

Does "$stylevar" actually appear when you view the source? Try:

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

Try the global_setup_complete hook and see if you get any errors or anything.
