Insert php code?

[pipc01]

Hi mentors,
I would like to add 4 very short lines of php anywhere to show up on every page of my template, top or bottom, it matters not.
I have tried to add the raw php even to a php file, but unlike "normal" websites, this template does not finish in a closing php tag.

I am guessing I need a piece of code, to allow the php code, in the same way html is used.

Any ideas please?

Thank you

I think (think) you can use {php} put your code here {/php} in your .tpl file

Unless I put it in the wrong place, it did not work, thanks for thee suggestion tho

Hello pipc01,
Did you use the same syntax:

{php}
include("/path/to/file.php");
{/php}

Also you can use this code in your *.tpl files:

{include_php file="/path/to/file.php"}

Hi Dave,
I have tried to add it in the header, no joy. I have tried to add it in the index no joy. I just need to add 2 files, /add.php and /this.php I have tried both your xamples. Neither worked for me, or I am too thick to follow basic instructions. Any idea where I should add them for them to show near either the header or footer?

Many thanks, Mark

Mark,
If you send me your ftp credentials and save your files in the root of your directory, I will try to help you. :)

hello

this works fine on my "detail-page":
{php}
include("/path/to/file.php");
{/php}

now my question. is this:
{php}
include("/path/to/file.php?parameter=$listing.id");
{/php} possible? I need the listing id to call my include file.

thanks, seppppel

Hello seppppel,
Yes, this is possible, but with slightly another syntax. Try something like this:

{php}
$yourVar=$this->get_template_vars('listing');
include("/path/to/file.php?parameter=".$yourVar['id']);
{/php}

Hello Dave,
Still question:

I have variable,
For example:
{php}
$p = 7;
{/php}

As it to transfer in .tpl file?
{$p}

Thanks

Hello antex,
Try something like this:

{php}
global $gDirSmarty;
$gDirSmarty->assign('p', 7);
{/php}
