Using phpMyFaq includes in another cms php templates.

Hello,

Although I have read over the "Howto: Include php files in phpMyFAQ", I have not found a solution to my situation.

I am using a simple php cms (dixit.net) that uses php for its own templates. I wish to incorporate PHPMyFAQ into the cms templates:

<body>
<?php include 'headfoot/header.php'; ?>
<?php include 'faq/index.php'; ?>
<?php include 'headfoot/footer.php'; ?>
</body>

When I tried the above, I get an error from PHPMyFaq: Fehler: Die Datei template/index.html kann nicht geÃ¶ffnet werden.

Before I start trying weird things to get it working,
is this possibly just a path problem?

Is there any quick fix available?

Hi,

it seems, this is a path problem. I don't know the CMS dixit.net, so I donÃ„t know how it works...

I didn't know php worked the way it does with includes.

Dixit, the cms, is installed in /www; phpMyFAQ is installed in /www/faq.
Dixit has user assigned templates for each page created. So instead of writing content for the FAQ page, I just assign the template that includes 'faq/index.php' in the body of the page.

Anyway, is the solution anymore complicated then editing phpMyFAQ's index.php and adding /faq to the paths?

Is there a global relative path in phpMyFAQ that I can change?

Hi,

I believe, it would be easier to change the design of the phpMyFAQ templates to the templates of your CMS. This is easier than changing the code of phpMyFAQ.

I guess so.

Having looked into this after reading your HowTo sticky, the index.php file seems to have changed from german comments to english.

Where exactly do I put the code that is suppose to be under the "/* Einzel-Templates der Unterseiten bestimmen */" comment?

My suggestion would be for all the necessary info be already in the index.php either commented or not for the test.php example.

Hi,

I will change the comments into english in phpMyFAQ 1.3.9.

Could you also change the HowTo sticky in this forum?

I still don't understand what to do with:

Code: Select all

$string = join ("", @file("test.php")); 
ob_start(); 
eval(" ?>".$string."<?php "); 
$value = ob_get_contents(); 
ob_end_clean();

thank for your help,

Hi,

this code is for inserting PHP-Code from a file into the FAQ.

I was not clear with my last question.

Under what */ comment does the code go under in index.php?

Hi,

you can put the code somewhere before

Code: Select all

/* load templates */
