eglwolf · Post by **eglwolf** » Fri 30. Apr 2004, 06:22

I have some snippets of code I want use include in certain areas, and I want to use either php includes, or SSI. but no matter what I try and code it with neither one show up.

It is something simple... just recheck the tags and pathing... remember that you have to put the whole path in if you are not keeping the code where Oliver does. I use it all the time... It is a great feature... Here is an example

Code: Select all

{PHP:/home/stuff/public_html/system/where.php}

Hope this helps.

Code: Select all

{PHP:where.php}

the root dir

I believe ALL replacement tags with the exception of the {IMAGE:} family of repTags are reletive to the root dir.

{IMAGE:} Family are reletive to the PICTURES dir

i have included {PHP:my_external.php} in a content;
my_external.php in root dir;

Warning: include_ext_php(my_external.php) [function.include-ext-php]: failed to create stream: No such file or directory in /home/web/www.sporteconomy.it/website/include/inc ... nc.inc.php on line 1062

try stripping the _ from the name
this may be automatically stripped in the processing of the replacement tag and therefore returning a file not found error

nothing
... Failed opening 'myexternal.php' ...

I wonder if your external.php is doing something that phpwcms doesn't like it
to as a {PHP:} included file.

if you link to the file from an article it works as a self contained thing right?

Perfect, that is exactly what I needed - thanks!

I am struggeling with the same problem; I have included a quotes script which should be called from the directory.

Code: Select all

{PHP:/home/.kale/salonphi/salonphilosophique.net/wcms/quotes/quotation.php}

I included the above in my template but I get an error saying:

Code: Select all

Warning: mysql_connect(): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2) in /home/.kale/salonphi/salonphilosophique.net/wcms/quotes/quotation_includes.php on line 30
Error:

This file is something which is called from the quotation.php file but when pointing my browser to the quotationfile directly, i do not get an error, only when including the file through the template.

any clues/pointers?
