Creating new PHPWCMS pages using external scrips - help?

Post by Gig »

Hi

Can someone help me, a newbie to phpwcms please.

I have a bunch of my own scripts for creating support tracking, guestbooks, etc and want to integrate them into my site which is running on PHPWCMS. But, I can't figure out how to do it.

Do I create a page for each page of script or an article? What about databases and win_authenticate.php pages, how do you add these in or cant it be done?

How do you create the pages and link them to the database?

I created an email form already from the email script on the training site but there is nothing else on creating other script pages. do I use the html content page and if so how?

Please post something here for me and others who are new to PHPWCMS so we can learn.

Thanks

Hi Gig,

first you have to allow external php scripts in your conf.inc.php
Than you have a look to this:
http://www.phpwcms-docu.de/system_tags_.phtml

A good workin´ guestbook with captcha-funtion is included in 1.2.8
if i remeber right ( I´m still on 1.2.6 )
also.

And please see for general questions:

Adding Exernal Scripts

Post by Gig »

Hi Klappstuhl28

I had a look at those links, and I looked at the file you mentioned. It seems my install is out of date so I am going to upgrade it first and see if ti solves anything.

The docs for phpwcms seem to be in non-english languages so I just dont get from them what needs to be done. I will go through the training site you sent and see if it helps.

Thanks and I will let you know if I get it sorted or need more help.

regarding to what you want to do, the iframe is prob the easiest way to include an existing script.
