Note: I will have a demo page of this up on the test site that the file is located at soon.

Upgrade: There is the regular version of this mod for standard phpBB and as well, I have included
an upgrade to use with Integramod 1.4.0 and 1.4.1. Im not so sure this will work with
other version of PCP as Integramods is a different version then the others...So I have been told.


I lay no claim to the mod. It is NOT mine! I have only made it work with Integramod 1.4.0 as well as the latest release.

I can not stress enough how great of a mod this is for use on our Integramod boards. Works very well with ImPortal as well with a couple changes to the install.

With this mod, You can take a stand alone mod and make it work within your phpbb and it uses sessions and your current template in use instead of being a standalone page.

EDIT

I updated the first post with details and where to go info.

Thank you so much for posting this as well as hosting the blank_page mod on your site.

A couple of questions please

In the readme.txt file you said
"Basically, anywhere that you see the words template, you need to change it to the name of the page. The template file template.tpl needs to be changed. Say for example you were making a page called weather. You would change the name of the file to weather.tpl "

I did that - renamed
template.tpl to weather.tpl
template.php to weather.php

I was able to make the edits to
includes/page_header.php
profilcp/def/def_userfuncs_viewonline.php

admin/index.php

language/lang_english/lang_main.php

includes/constants.php


Now the problem I had were the file
admin/modules/index.php

does not seem to be in my integramod 1.41 install - so I can not edit that.

also

copy templates/subSilver/template.tpl to templates/subSilver/template.tpl

My Integramod 1.41 does not include a subsilver sub-folder

So after I have complete all of the edits except the 2 exceptions and I run the file weather.php (i actually have it named blog.php) I get this error message

Template->make_filename(): Error - template file not found: blog.tpl

you can see the error by going to
[url=http]Error page[/url]

Any idea how I can fix this?

Thanks

I just woke up. Let me gather my thoughts and some coffee and Ill come back and post a how to. This is a nice mod. I wonder if Helterskelter will let me submit it to this website. If so, I will write up a nice KB article on how to use it as well.

Oh and for the record, I was using weather as a example. <img> If you want a page called movies, it would have been movie.php and movie.tpl if it was to be called mysite, it would have mysite.php and mysite.tpl .

Yep - I used blog.tpl and blog.php

Thanks again for your help it is greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Ok I have some coffee in me and am ready for another day of code. NOT! lol but Ill give it a go anyhow.

The way this mod dits now, users have to be logged in to see the pages. It has no checks installed at all. I had planned on adding this feature, but really it is user preference. Just because I want a user logged in to view the page doesnt mean that the next guy/gal will want them logged in.

In my KB article Im going to do, I will include details on how to add checks for users logged in and out.

I am now getting the error

Template->loadfile(): No files found for handle blog

Did you read the thread at phpBB.com that i sent you in the PM? I can do it for you but every time you try to add a page, Im gonna have to do it for you. There is an old saying and it goes like this. Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day, teach the man how to fish and he will eat for life. So in other words I'd rather teach you then do it for you.

That thread should explain it all. like I said, Im working on a KB article, but am right in the middle of a installation for someone right atm. I will get back on this tonight.

I stress, do NOT use the emample edits I provided in this thread. I just edited it for a fake page. Example only.

PM me exactly what you did edits and all and I will find your error. I had that error once and it was when I first started using the mod. Once I got it figured out it went smooth. Oh and PM me a copy of the original php file that you are wanting to add. NOT from the blank page mod, but the original from the mod you wish to use with the blank page mod.

PS and why dont you just send me a link tot he mod you wish to use and Ill do all of the edits in the instructions for you and send it back to you. That way all you will need to do is follow the install. As well, I will make a hidden link on my website for you to download it and use it. BUT as before, i strongly suggest reading and looking cloasely at what edits I made so if you decide to add another page, you can do it. <img>

No worries, we will get it right for you.

also no files to edit in

admin/modules/index.php

I finally got this to work

sort of

Afte reading through 30 of the 39 pages on the phpbb post of the original mod there was a link to an updated mod

[url=http]updated blank page mod[/url]

After you add the mod if you then go to the admin section of your site - you will not see a link - instead just use the filename of

yoursite.com/admin/admin_npm_new_page.php

press enter and the mod comes up.

You have to change a few things

in the npm.mod instructions you have to set the db prefix to the correct one (if you are not using phpbb)

also in the 4 files that you copy over from the root folder you will need to change the db prefix in those and of course alter the destination from templates/subsilver to your template - I just used templates/ as my destination and then copied the newpage.tpl file all of the template folders.

Other than that - it works like a charm.

Thanks for the help.
