adding an smf theme to my other web pages

[glennmckenna]

i'm trying to add my forums theme to my other web page which I've done using the SSI.php and i get this
http://usaulnaynatation.site90.com/new/test2.php
but i would like to remove the  the forum / content part so in other words all i want is the top blue bar and whats in the blue bar
is that possible ?

I'm currently running:
smf 2.0.2
with the theme:
bluez

[Kindred]

nearly anything is possible... you just have to know how to code it.

In your case, it is not possible using existing/standard functions, because the blue bar is only PART of the header that SMF uses.
You would have to code the display like it is in index.php.

i've so got this far

and the page looks like this :
http://usaulnaynatation.site90.com/new/forum/new-2.php
what else should i do?

[Kindred]

No. That was copied from index.php. You would copy stuff from index.template.pho, not index.php

[glennmckenna]

ah ok so in other words i've got to create my own theme

[Kindred]

not completely... you only want part of the theme.

If you would accept the whole header, you could just use SSI + one or two function calls.
Because you only want PART of the header, you need to basically build your own header.

and do you think that it would be possible to do it with out the ssi.php ?

[Kindred]

Well, you still need to include ssi, if you are not building the page under SMF actions array.
But then you can include parts, bits and bobbles from the SMF code.

well this is what it looks like at the moment
http://usaulnaynatation.site90.com/new/forum/index.php
what i want to do is add another menu in between the forums menu and the logo that will be the web sites menu and have the top blue bar on every web page

so if i understand correctly i have to create my own theme (modify the current) one then install it and then use the SSI.php on the other page to fetch the theme

[Kindred]

if you want the theme to be used in the forum and out... then yes.

[glennmckenna]

if you want the theme to be used in the forum and out... then yes.

no i just want that theme to used on the other pages of the web site

also is the a way to do it with out the SSI and creating another theme?

[Kindred]

again...   why are you trying to avoid SSI?

If you create a theme, the you would want to use SSI and call that theme.

Do you even understand how SSI works?

once you include SSI, you can use SMF global variables and call SMF functions...

like so

also is the a way to do it with out the SSI and creating another theme?

Without SSI , you shall need to create a theme for that page that is similar to your forum. Or you can create page using portal mod(s) or page mod. But the latter is creating a page inside the forum.

[glennmckenna]

right I've got that part working now thanks

but i would now like to know (this may sound a bit stupid)how do i change the name of the page
here is the like to the page
http://usaulnaynatation.site90.com/new/home.php

[Hj Ahmad Rasyid Hj Ismail]

Fill something in here:    <title></title>

[Colin]

Do you mean the HTML Meta tag title or the actual file name?

[Kindred]

actually, aharis, if he's using SSI and the templates that much, he should probably continue and use $context['html_headers']['title'] $context['page_title']
(ummm... I *THINK* that's the name of the variable)

[Hj Ahmad Rasyid Hj Ismail]

How do I integrate SMF into my PHP coded website? You will find what I was saying here. 

[glennmckenna]

Fill something in here:    <title></title>

tried that and it didn't work

actually, aharis, if he's using SSI and the templates that much, he should probably continue and use $context['html_headers']['title'] $context['page_title']
(ummm... I *THINK* that's the name of the variable)

gave that a go to

here is the current pages code as it is

no....  use the combination of what aharis and I said...

echo '<title>'. $context['page_title'] . '</title>';

you don't replace page_title with home... you use the words page_title because that is the variable.
