[mybb] custom php pages

First create, somepage.php file in ROOT or forum directory. Inside it, paste below code and save it:

PHP Code:
<?php 

define('IN_MYBB', 1); require "./global.php";

add_breadcrumb("Title here", "somename.php"); 

eval("\$html = \"".$templates->get("template_name")."\";"); 

output_page($html);

?>

Next, Themes & templates > Templates > Global Templates > Add template.

Add below example template:

Code:
<html>
<head>
<title>Your title here</title>
{$headerinclude}
</head>
<body>
{$header}
<table border="0" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="4" class="tborder">
<tr>
<td class="thead"><span class="smalltext"><strong>Your title here.</strong></span></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="trow1">

Add here your custom messages.

</td></tr></table>
{$footer}
</body>
</html>

And for title, give any title to it but make sure you enter same title name in the somename.php file where it is calling (evaluating eval) the template name. As in this example case, you should enter title as template_name since we entered and recalled same global template in somename.php file.

Save the global template and it should work fine now.

What I like to do on creating new pages is having a few variables. Title and content are the most important of course. You can even eval() the title variable to use as the content box title too, like such:

eval("\$page_title =\"". $page_title . "\";");
eval("\$content =\"". $content . "\";");
eval("\$html = \"".$templates->get("template_name")."\";"); 


output_page($html);

?>

Template:

Code:
<html>
<head>
<title>Your title here</title>
{$headerinclude}
</head>
<body>
{$header}
<table border="0" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="4" class="tborder">
<tr>
<td class="thead"><span class="smalltext"><strong>{$page_title}</strong></span></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="trow1">

{$content}

</td></tr></table>
{$footer}
</body>
</html>

Then you could rename the template to something like "main_container" and reuse it throughout multiple pages.
