If you mean:

{PHP: test/foo.php}

then "foo.php" must reside in:

$phpwcms["root"]/test/foo.php

example: {PHP:phpwcms/test/foo.php}

Yep, my root folder is "sub", my Replacement is

Code: Select all

{PHP: sub/test/index.php}

and the error-message is

Code: Select all

Warning: include_ext_php( sub/test/index.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\sub\include\inc_front\front.func.inc.php on line 955

You could try adding a slash at the beginning

{PHP: /sub/test.php}

who knows

nope, doesn´t work

Code: Select all

{PHP: ../../test/index.php}

is working in this example

if you look at your error code above there is a space

and the error-message is

Code:

Warning: include_ext_php( sub/test/index.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\sub\include\inc_front\front.func.inc.php on line 955

so try making sure it is {PHP:myfile.php} where there is no space inbetween the : and filename. [/quote]

The space doesn't matter.

It works so

Code: Select all

{PHP:../../include/inc_ext/apps/intern/index.php}

or so

Code: Select all

{PHP: ../../include/inc_ext/apps/intern/index.php}

Only this

Code: Select all

{PHP:/sub/test/index.php}

doesn´t work, because it is rather a php include problem.

I am a php-newbie therefore it is need a little time to figure out.

If file A includes file B and file B wants to include file C and the files are in different directories there can be complications, because file B's include path automatically shifts to whatever file A's may be. A bit confusing to say the least.

A work around for this

Code: Select all

define("BASE", "path-to-root-project-directory");

then, at the top of every php page, before any other includes, include
path.php.

Then, before any include statements, use the BASE global.

Code: Select all

include "library.php" becomes:
include BASE."library.php"

Now you simply structure all includes to be relative to the project's base
directory, and every page will know how to get there.

This isn't "actually" quite true. If your file to "insert" is in:

C:/Inetpub/wwwroot/sub/test/index.php"

~and phpWCMS's file named "phpwcms.php" is in:

C:/Inetpub/wwwroot/sub/phpwcms.php"

then I "believe" you should enter:

Code: Select all

{PHP:sub/test/index.php}

~or~

Code: Select all

{PHP:../test/index.php}

In other words... "relative to the root folder that phpWCMS is installed in"
(The "called" file then "inherits" the URL path of the "calling" function, which in this case... is phpWCMS's root http://www.mydomain.com/sub/"
