UBB.Developers Forums UBB.threads 6 V6 Modifications Forum Design Integration Multiple IIP entrance pages?

Is it possible to have multiple IIP pages. I have it setup for fishing but board has hunting too... so would be nice to have a hunting IIP page. Just wondering?

Well anything is possible.

I guess the easiest thing is to ask what kind of parameters do you require. You want different index's based on what variable?

I have in my time coded up some pretty bizarre things based on user's requests so it all depends on what specific set of circumstances someone needs.

I have coded multiple index's with multiple configs but how you go about implementing them is specific to what one is trying to do. I never much saw a point to it so I never released it as it was just play on a test site.

I see on your site you have ONE cat that is hunting. There are ways to do it but you need to specify what your after and I can point you in the right direction

I was using hunting as the example but actually with a config iip screen I could make more region specific subtle information. (weather, tides, regulations, river levels, locations, news and stuff like that) Giving the users better tools to use the site is what I am shooting for.

Since I am based in western washington there are many other factors that differ and are geared towards other techniques or locations. So in reality it would be nice to have a page for Western Washington, Oregon, British columbia, alaska, etc..

Okay so your talking about 4 index's you can setup with 4 different layouts.

Well the easy way would be to make another 4 versions of index.php,doeditconfigpal.php, editconfigpal.php and configpal.php

Basically the long and short of it is he following. You have your original set. Say this is Western Washington. You want to make another copy changing all references to any of the files a number on the end or name whatever. Example configpal.php becomes configpal1.php, You follow what I am saying here. You can follow that scheme for all 4 versions So inessense you will be able to call index1 index2 index3 index4 etc and then be able to edit each index and save each in its each config. You might want to tie in the extra pal box mod I posted.

I like it .. thanks!! Will try to put this to work with the extra pal boxes. This is really gonna open up some possiblities. Now to get some of the autochoose group mods working.

Yeah its not a hard mod to do. Just making sure you can call each page edit it and saves it own config.

thanks chuck it works like a charm
I used index.php and config as search strings to find the right files to update. Index1 working now.. To cool

Yep you just need to modify those 4 files to point to each other and you can make unlimited IIP index pages

For my next brainstorm.. how do I change the header on each of these to be more specific.

LOL well thats a more detailed mod.

IIP uses the default header mod.
$html -> send_header($config['title'],$Cat,0,$user);
list($tbopen,$tbclose) = $html -> table_wrapper();

This is untested but would probally work I use something similar to rewrite multiple index pages into who's online

In ubbt-inc.php find this:

// ----------------------------
// require the header.php file
if ( ($script['2'] != "top") ) {
if ($fheader) {
$header = "header_$Board.php";
}else {
$header = "header.php";
}


Under it place this:

$currentPage = $_SERVER['SCRIPT_FILENAME'];

if ( $currentPage == "/PATH/TO/index1.php") {
$header = "header_index1.php";
}
elseif ( $currentPage == "/PATH/TO/index2.php") {
$header = "header_index2.php";
}
elseif ( $currentPage == "/PATH/TO/index3.php") {
$header = "header_index3.php";
}
elseif ( $currentPage == "/PATH/TO/index.php") {
$header = "header.php";
}

Now remember not to overwrite the final closing }

You will need to place 3 more header files in your includes directory if you want a different one in the format meantioned above header_index1.php etc.

Thanks Chuck.
