Hello Logician,
You were spot on. The existing themes ( a ton ) had to be altered into the right format for vb4 from 3. Once that was done, it started to work on those other pages.
Still got CSS issues, and the forum isn't applied to the theme, but those aren't specific to this mod.
Thanks for the assist!

vb CMS and Webtemplates are seperate pluggins and they will live fine together provided that you don't try to combine them somehow (eg. try to display a webtemplate inside a CMS page etc.)

Logician,
Question for you. With the changes from Vb3 to 4, are there any requirements to get the php code in the php includes section on the bottom of the web templates editor (html template, not php), to call out properly on the page?

Example, $rnd_navbar used to output a php powered navbar using css, but now it's nothing. Php code is still same as it was for VB3.

I've tried the method of registering the variables as described on a KB article here, but no luck.

Curious if you had any suggestions?

[halkum]

Thought I had it fixed with the well written guide at vbteam but it still wasn't working.

So in a html or txt template, if you have php code in the include (worked in vb3 no issue), and call the variables of the function in the template code itself... it doesn't work. According to VB4 info you have to register these variables first as a template or something.

Anybody have any really helpful information on this? I just have a few pages with custom php code in it for a navigation bar/graphic setup that needs to work on the vb4 templates now.

Seems like this would be a common question, but i dont see it anywhere..

Can you apply a different style to a webtemplate.? (not theme, but style) I see in the first entry in the description it says you can apply permissions, styles, etc but im not sure if that means different from the boards default.

Webtemplate is a HTML (or php) page. It is different than your other HTML pages in that you can create them in your vbulletin admin cp and you can integrate them with your vbulletin like applying them vb permissions, styles etc.

Or would i have to create a new "Theme" to use a different style.?
Jeez, that sounds confusing. lol

Thanks

Not really but forcing a webtemplate to use a specific style can be possible by using a code like this in webtemplate's phpinclude section:

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

I didn't test it, it might require tweaks.

I'm not the best with "tweaks" lol
But i can add a style id.

Where would this code go..?

PHP Include section of the webtemplate that you want to apply the custom theme.

I am getting a blank, white screen in Admin CP when trying to import:

webtemplate_export.xml

Actually, all of the options under that category on the left result in a full, blank white screen. I uploaded and double-checked all files accordingly. Thoughts?

In product manage, you are importing the file "product-webtemplates.xml" and after hack is installed you are importing "webtemplate_export.xml" in webtemplate import/export section right?

STEP 2- Login Admin CP/Product Manager/Add-Import Product/ -> Tick "Allow Overwrite" and Import the file named "product-webtemplates.xml"
(There are 2 XML files, please make sure you import the file named "product-webtemplates.xml"!)
(This steps installs webtemplates templates, phrases, settings to your vbulletin)

[CappingTheGame]

That is correct. I made sure I was importing the correct XML file in Admin. First the product-, then the _export.

Just getting a full blank, white screen with no options. Really strange.

[CappingTheGame]

I can't even get to the Export Import area though on the expand/collapse list. I know I need to upload that file there, but again just a blank white screen for somoe reason.

Any helps appreciated.

[CappingTheGame]

4.1.9 BTW. Not sure if that matters.

[Logician]

Is this a fresh install (of webtemplates)? I believe you already tried, uninstalling/reinstalling the product?

If nothing helps, give me admin cp and ftp access to your site and let me check.
