UBB.threads PHP Forum Software Community Forums General Suggestions and Feedback Non php Content Islands

Prior to version 7 we had the ability to create content islands that were non-php based. We all don't run our sites stricly on PHP. So can we have an option to have these islands on html for example? That would be nice.

you can insert standard html into these islands between the eof lines

I'm sorry, I wasn't clear. I meant content islands as in, for example, getting the most recent discussion items to appear as a content island on another page, not on UBB.threads forums.

That's a feature request of mine too

javascript includes, styled/non-styled, etc.

You can do it with an RSS Feed reader, assuming that the item is an rss feed from within threads; or you can use the php include option with the "external use" link to have it populate elsewhere on your site.

I do however miss the js include like classic had, for the record

Gizmo,
You said:


But if the page I want it on is not a .php page, then the .php translators would simply ignore it. Am I right?

This is exactly what I meant when I said earlier that it would be nice to this in html like we did in version 6.

You mentioned an RSS Feed option. How do I do that?

Yes, non-php pages cannot serve php content unless you set apache (through the conf or .htaccess) to read php content through .htm/.html pages.

Well, the RSS feeds only work for forum data, check out my http://home.undergroundnews.com/ page, I use rss feeds from several sites, using LastRSS; I only grab the username and title, but the same could really be done for content as well.
