custom page with include???

php fusion in the main dir public_html/

or on specific dir

explain plz :)

yes it is... don't know what else to explain????

Hi,

Can you show me book/index.php please?

Thanks

try this

create books.php

maybe my question was worded wrong so let's try this again everyone....

info first:
1. standard NEW install of the newest PHPFusion-7.02.07 in my root dir on a working Linux dedicated server (with 9 other sites running other scripts with no problems, so server side is fine)
2. PHPFusion-7.02.07 is running Great as the out-of the-box install...
3. I have added one (1) dir to the base dir structure called Books with a index.php file that will list all the sub-directories and files in the Books dir (which works fine when loaded in my browser as http://www.mysite.com/Books/index.php)
4. in standard php I would simply add the Syntax:
include ('dir/filename';
or better yet:
require ('dir/filename';
5. for a big site The best practice for this is to define a 'ABSOLUTE_PATH' constant that contains the directory that everything is located under. as follows:
define("ABS_PATH", $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']);
then call it like this:
include(ABS_PATH . "/path/to/file";

NOW for the QUESTION...
what is the syntex/code to add an "include" or "require" to a custom page and still keep the script intact and stay within the AGPL Copyright notice??????
OR.......
is there an INFUSION that will do what #3 above will do????

thanks

OR.......
is there an INFUSION that will do what #3 above will do????

Hi there,

Hopefully I can help you.

The link above provided does not lead to a PHPFusion site so it's a little hard for me to find the file book.php do you have a direct link to the file?

Regards

Lets try this again. Please do not post any links to external downloads or ask for IP addresses again.

This is the code you tried.



Try one of these two, both have space removed from basedir. and one is lowercase B




Let us know the results and we will move forward.

hi all.. I would like to start off by apologizing for not reading the CoC and being a paranoid bad boy... sorry my bad...

to answer the question I asked in the beginning, for all you who are interested, the proper syntex/code to add an "include" or "require" to a custom page and still keep the script intact (running smoothly) and stay within the AGPL Copyright notice (load the "Powered by" info) is:



the above code will load the page you want in the main frame, show header-navigation-side boxes-etc and footer... BUT and this is a big BUT... you CAN NOT HAVE ANY LINKS WITHIN THAT FRAME/page... ONLY INFORMATION because when you click on the link it will just send you back to the home page without a bunch of tweaking... it may work right in an iframe but I didn't try that...

I simply wanted it to load a page that would list a bunch of pdf/epud/mobi files for others to view/download. It listed them but the links would not go to them ...

I have owned and built websites since the Internet started in the early '90s (ya I'm an old geezer) and must say "php-fusion is the BEST, easiest to use CMS script I tried for my new site".. and I tried 12 of them but the CMS scripts have become bloated "my space"/"face book" clones which is not what "I wanted"... if you do then by all means use php-fusion it will make your life easy and your site sing & dance...

thanks

No worries on the CoC. I can be over zealous at times so part of the problem is with me.

Reading through your last post I get the impression you are able to see the links in the index.php that point to your files in the dir. The problem is that when you click the link it does not have the desired effect you are looking for (download a file, open PDF in the browser, etc.). Is this correct?

yes BrandonBlack that is exactly what happens.. it just throws me back to the home page....

since I am an information junky and getting older I decided to start a site called SharingLibrary.com with all the stuff I have collected over the past 30 years (about 40 Tera gigs worth ((mostly tutorials... no pron, software, movies or music)) if you want to know how to write html-cgi-php-C++ or build a ram pump to lift water 100 feet without power or need a science project for class, it will be there .. hahaha) so that all the kids out there could have access to it...

I don't need a blog, forum, news section or any of the interactive stuff cuz I just want to put the stuff I have out there for others. Most of it is eBooks (pdf/epud/mobi), tutorial movies (avi/mp4/flv) and pictures (jpg/gif/psd)...

that's why I have been trying the CMS scripts for their photo/video galleries, download sections and membership parts all rolled into one... of the 12 I've installed and tested over the past three months PHP-fusion came the closest to what I need but I am getting too old to go digging through miles of script to tweak things when I can be playing in my garden with my grand kids and great grand kids... hahahaha

If there is a quick easy fix for what I need (ftp upload - on the fly dynamic listing of directories (i have one page scripts for this) - server side thumbnail creation (i have one page scripts for this) and membership management) in a pretty package like php-fusion please let me know...

if not then I will just build a template driven php site with the scripts I have written or have found and give up on the CMS packages... "Back in the day" Content Management scripts were just that, "Content Management" not full of blogs, forums and tons of interactive addons so I may be looking at the wrong scripts.

I do appreciate your help and keep up the good work with php-fusion!!!!!!!!

thanks
