Hello,

Is there a way that I can modify the generated code so that it automatically includes the header, footer, left navigation, and right navigation? In other words, I don't want to have to paste the generated code into my template, but rather have the template code included when CMS builder creates the 'ready to paste' code.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Derek

Hi,
I think that to do that you would need Article Manager 2.

Best Wishes,

Hi Derek,

There's no easy or automatic way to do that. You could do it by modifying the code generator code.

Another way, that might be just about as easy, would be to have your header, footer, navigation, etc in include files and include them with single lines like this:

<?php include "/path/to/includes/header.html" ?>

Would that work for you?

Hi Dave,

I already the files as server side includes and want it generated with the code. What file do I need to edit for the code generator?

Thanks,

Derek

Derek,

Assuming you have the latest version - it is:

/lib/menus/admin/showCode_functions.php

Make a backup first, then search for the functions:

_printHtmlHeader
_printInstructions
_printHtmlFooter

Hope that helps!
