adding php code or to include a page with php code into a .tpl page

[legohead6]

how would i do this, i am intergrating a phpbb forum system into my site!

[fert]

the only way to do this is to tell the server to parse tpl files as php.

[legohead6]

and how would i go about doing that?

[legohead6]

or what about just a page include? and the included page would have the php on it?

the only way to do this is to tell the server to parse tpl files as php.

Or eval() the .tpl files

There is a mod for phpbb that allows you to put php in your tpl files, look on phpbbhacks.com for it.

ok,i am trying to work around doing this by adding the required php code in the php pages, i have modified the index page so that to save time trying to merge my "members" database with the "phpbb_users" i have created a code at the beginning that checks if there is an account on both with the same username and password, if there is i made it so it should login and if there isnt it makes one in the phpbb_users to match the one in my "members" database. now i keep comming up with errors. i had to bypass the whole "hacking atempt" system because it wasnt liking my code and know im getting "Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in /home2/mattsweb/public_html/forum/main/includes/page_header.php on line 62" since im not all that familiar with the phpbb system of coding and have been kinda figuring it out as i go i can figure out whats is wrong. here is page_header.php up to that line!
