I'm trying to add some advertisement tracking (specifically Insight XE tags) to the footer of my main page template. It consists of two PHP includes an a variable in the middle that does the tracking for each page. When I add it to the ubbt_footer.tmpl file, I put it just under this code:

Code
include("{$config['path']}/includes/$file");


Everything on the page from that point on diappears. The code stops at a <br /> and nothing else.


My second question with this is how I can add unique tags to each forum to do specific tracking? This is essential for ad tracking.

You could make forum-specific tags and add them to their forum-specific footers. You add those in the

control panel > forum settings > details > Header/Footer > "Use a unique header/footer for this forum"

oh, and for the first issue, got a link to what's going on? Sounds like an error in your included code.

Really all that happens is that the bottom bar with the Contact Us and site link disappears. Am I not understanding correctly that the UBBPRINT and UBBTREMARK are how Threads process PHP and prints non-php code? Even when I try to duplicate these for adding additional content, they just end up printing out so you can see the UBBPRINT and TREMARK code right on the page. Argh!

I added that PHP include code into the General > HTML Includes > Default Footer and it worked fine. Now if I also add includes on a individual form basis under the forum settings > details > Header/Footer, does that override this general footer in those individual forums? Because these are Ad tracking tags, the information needs to be specific so I want to make sure that only one of the includes is being output onto the specific forum pages.
