[Phpwiki-talk] PHP Code in the Template Files

[Paul M. <pmm...@gm...>]

Hello.

I have searched for this information, but I can't seem to find it
anywhere, although I believe it to be possible.

I want to modify template files with a 1.2.7 clean install.

Essentially, I want to 'wrap' the wiki with elements form an existing
webpage (common headers, footer, ads, etc).

I have changed the template extension to .php and changed the
reference to it in config.php.  It loads the template as-is with the
new extension perfectly.  The problem is that the new php code I am
now inserting into it is not getting executed.

I have a require() at the top of the renamed template file, and then I
run a few custom canned functions from this included file (adRotate(),
displayUsers(), etc).  None of these execute properly when run from
within the .php template.

Do I need to make any other changes to execute php code in the
template?  This should (I think) be very straightforward but I can't
find any information about executing code on the WIKI itself or in
this mailist archives.

Thanks in advance,

Paul
