Hi, I'm trying to use SSI.php to show forum info on my blog - Simple PHP Blog aka sphpblog
I added
<?php require("/mu_absolute_path/forum/SSI.php");?> at the top of all "affected" files (those that generate error that the smf functions are not defined) but I'm getting this error
LainaaWarning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /my_absolute_path/a_sphpblog_directory/a_sphpblog_directory_file.php:3) in /my_absolute_path/a_sphpblog_directory/a_sphpblog_directory_file.php on line ...
I was suggested to use ob_start() and ob_flush() but it didn't solve the next problem, that is I get auto logged out of my blog. Erm.. I cleared my IE browser cookies and I was able to stay logged in after that, but after I logout, I get the same auto logged out problem and clearing cookies don't help.
Silly question but can SSI.php be used on a dynamic site such as a blog? or can it only be used on a single page? Sorry, maybe this is not a genuine smf qn per se but i'ld really prefer to have smf stuffs like menubar and recent posts on my blog :'(
Thanks for your patience..
Did you place that before all other includes/requires?
I glanced at that blog system and it looks like all files (like comments.php ect) include scripts/sb_functions.php. You can edit that file alone and start the file as:
<?php
ob_start();
require('/path/to/smf/SSI.php');
Then you shouldn't need to edit all other files.
Make sure there are no spaces before the <?php
thanks for taking a look :)
this is what i did:
1. tried your suggestion - no more warning but auto logout of blog
2. cleared cookie - stay logged in but can't logout
LainaaFatal error: session_start() [function.session-start]: Failed to initialize session module in /my_absolute_path/scripts/sb_login.php on line 30
3. tried to add a blog post but get the first warning about modifying header info but the post is added properly
4. smf quick login worked fine
i hope to understand if it's more of an smf issue or more of the blog issue. thanks for helping.

might be an issue with both SMF and the blog starting a session.
You might want to look at the smf_api.php (http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=16572.0) as well (as a replacemet for ssi.php).
thanks! i've tried the file but i wonder if i used it correctly. i added smf_api.php in smf folder and changed sb_functions.php to require smf_api.php instead of SSI.php but i get this error
LainaaFatal error: Call to undefined function: ssi_menubar()
so i added to require smf_api.php and SSI.php but having the same problem as just using SSI.php
did i use it correctly?? thanks
SSI.php and smf_api.php and NOT the same and I think smf_api doesn't offer ssi_menubar I think. The api is ment to make some things easier, but NOT as a replacement for SSI.php
hmm... i shall continue to ponder. thanks for your help! ;)
