I posted this to the modules trouble shooting forum but got no response.
I need and answer so I'm trying this forum, sorry for cross posting.
--------
I want to clone a particular page in WFCHANNEL several times and include a small navigation block inside the content itself.
(other XOOPs modules also have a content fields, called by various names, but they end up being the primary content block served by the theme... so the question really goes across all modules)
It is a simple html <div> with a <ul> list of links, a mini submenu (see below) that works just fine if I have it in the content as explicit html.
Theoretically it should be as simple as saving that html chunk out to a file "pager-menu.php" and then adding this, which will work if I try it in a external test php file
<?php include("/pdf_download/pagers/pagers-menu.php"); ?>
But, if I put this include in the "Page Content" field of a WF Channel record, it is not rendered. I searched the web but don't find any documentation on how this could be done. I need all these WF channels pages to be calling the same block and we only want a single instance of the block. Hence the use of an include. We have SSIs turned on on this machine, but a standard <! #include virtual="path/to/html/block.html" > also does not work
Thank you. (complete XOOPS newbie, but experienced web programmer)
