Problem with PHP includes Can't Post
Hi there,

I used to be able to do a PHP includes using the full HTML path while was ideal if I wanted to run a search query and include the result i.e. search.cgi?start=1&perpage=1&cat=1,2,3,4,5&template=search/name.html

The server host no longer allow file includes citing security reasons. They only allow includes using the server file system and of course a query cannot be included.

Is there another way - other than cURL - to include a query?

Hi Terry!

What I'd recommend here is to use a script we have available called "Publishcron" to turn your dynamic query into a static page that is updated whenever you publish.

The same premise is used to create the RSS feed in Article Manager 1, take a look at this tutorial here:

http://www.interactivetools.com/products/articlemanager1/tutorials/rss.html

Only instead of using the RSS template to set it up, you'd use the search/name.html template. Steps 2 & 3 will be the important ones here. :)

Give that a try and let me know how it works for you!

One other thing to note is that Article Manager 2 has this functionality built in -- all you'd have to do is create a new publish rule, so if you're looking for an excuse to upgrade... ;)
