Inserting PhP scripts in a template

[Anduril]

I am trying to create a login system in my cms template, but it the PHP scripts don't seem to work when I put them in a template. Am I doing something wrong?

[Anduril]

For example:

I want the login form to show up when your not logged in and the action should sent the information to the page himself. I haven the following script, it works on a normal site, but not in a cmsms template...:

Code: Select all

<?php if(!isset($_SESSION["login"])){ ?>
<table width="140" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
  <tr>
    <td class="logintabel" align="center">
        <form name="loginform" method="post" action="<?php echo($_SERVER['PHP_SELF'].'?'.$_SERVER['QUERY_STRING']); ?>">
	Username:<br>
	<input name="loginusername" type="text"><br>
	Password:<br>
	<input name="loginpassword" type="password"><br>
	<input name="loginsubmit" type="submit" value="Login">
    </form>
	    <h3><a href="phpbb/index.php">Registreren!</a></h3></td>
  </tr>
</table>
<?php } ?>

Create a User defined tag, place all your php code there, and insert into the template {your_tag_name}

So I should create a user defined tag for every little piece of PHP?

Isn't there an other way? {php}{/php} or {literal}{/literal}

[calguy1000]

Yes, you can use {literal}{/literal} and for complex, multi-part php stuff, that may be the better way.

For php code, you can use {php}{/php}.  However, in order for it to work, you need to set the allow_php_tags (I think?!? -- something close to that) value to true in config.php.

[Anduril]

OK, that's the solution:
For PHP to work in a template edit the config.php

$config['use_smarty_php_tags'] = true; (false = standard)

and then use {php} and {/php} to replace the tags

Thanx for the ideas.....

Hi all !

I would like to know, if we want to insert an enter in a sql database, we will use naturally php without any problems ? 

Tanks a lot.

$config['use_smarty_php_tags'] = true; (false = standard)

and then use {php} and {/php} to replace the tags

Cool, thanks for that. I was wondering and... my question is answered!
