Login and Recent post - Adding in Homepage from Forum

Sudhakar Arjunan · July 08, 2008, 10:44:19 AM

Hey Smf friends,

I am trying to write code for adding all ssi related functions to my homepage from Forum page.

I have used SSI.php in the opening tag and changed my homepage as .php page.

Now i have removed all the bugs and the index.php homepage is showing.

When i tried to insert <?php ssi_recentTopics(); ?> i dont have any output.

Even i have used commands with Flush();

Any idea to show the ssi tag functions (Login and recent post) with in my site.

My forum page : http://forum.itacumens.com or http://itacumens.com/forum/

My Test Homepage : http://www.itacumens.com/index_homepage_test3.php

My SSI example page i have used : http://itacumens.com/forum/ssi_examples.php

My Idea @ this page : http://itacumens.com/images/smf/

Any help would be Appreciated.

Have you included the SSI.php file, with the correct location?

You need to have this at the beginning of your html index page, but you will need to change the "SSI.php" so that it matches the location of your SSI.php file.

Code Select

<?php require("SSI.php"); ?>

If that's not the problem then try to use some of the other functions to see if any of them work.

Thanks for your reply.

Check out the code of my index.php homepage file starts like.

Code Select


<?php require('/home/itacumen/public_html/forum/SSI.php'); //put the correct  path here

$ssi_gzip = true;  //true--means gzip is turned on.

$ssi_ban = true;  //true--means a banned forum user will be banned also in the SSI page.

$ssi_theme = 6; //uses the theme [images, buttons, colors] Specifiy theme ID here. Comment out to use your sites  default theme

ob_start();  //is needed not to get errors.

global $context;

$context['page_title'] = "$mbname - Home"; //needs to go above template_main_above(); to display Page Title


echo '<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
<html xmlns:v="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:vml" xmlns:o="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40">
<head>

Then i have went through the recent topic and all codes, but its not even showing up.
Any help Please.

Okay, attached is a small example which attempts some of the things that you want. It does at least show you where you can put some of the things you want.

You want to do quite a bit, so I highly recommend that you look over the SSI.php documentation and try to learn a bit about php. I am happy to help you with it, but I am less inclined to make it for you, because I don't have the time.

Just a few comments, every line in your html code was separated by about 6 blank lines, I used a php script to remove all of those, because they make it completely impossible to actually edit the code itself. Also you had all of your hmtl code inside an echo ''; command, this is pointless and makes it harder to read. I have fixed that as well.

Hi LHVWB,

I have been testing this page for last few minutes.

shows some error at line 3.

Code Select


Warning: require(SSI.php) [function.require]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/itacumen/public_html/index_test_lhvwb.php on line 3

Warning: require(SSI.php) [function.require]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/itacumen/public_html/index_test_lhvwb.php on line 3

Fatal error: require() [function.require]: Failed opening required 'SSI.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/itacumen/public_html/index_test_lhvwb.php on line 3

Then i have just checked and included the base path at line 3 and its working.

Check this link i have hosted at my public html folder.

Got it done. Thanks for your help LHVWB. I hope some small updates & Css work need to complete the codes. Will work now and complete it as soon. You to give me some suggestions on it.
