Customizing SMF > Graphics and Templates

(updated) Modifiying Theme Templates Inside A VB.NET WebBrowser Control.

(1/1)

Shane74340Plus:
I would like to know how to view SMF's Theme files (index.template, BoardIndex.template, etc) inside a VB.NET WebBrowser control.
For an example, Artisteer does the same with WordPress, which is what I'm trying to achieve.



I updated this topic for a better exploitation of what I want to do.

Shane74340Plus:
Bump

Arantor:
WP templates are not the same structure as SMF templates, it is not possible to do what you're asking.

You see, WP templates are mostly HTML with occasional PHP intermixes, while SMF templates are ALL PHP, outputting HTML as a result - you cannot put them directly into a WebBrowser control because they'd have to be run on the server to actually get a result.

Shane74340Plus:
Thanks for the info on how SMF Templates work.

I think I figured out what kind of app I need to create.

Arantor:
You need to create a code editor, basically... something like Notepad++ ;)
