Need to use the PHP Include function on my sidebar

[Maccsta]

I want to use the PHP Include to call some links into my sidebar.

I've tried to use the HTML nugget tool to do this using:

<?php
@ini_set('expose_php', 'Off');
@include "/usr/www/virtual/maccsta/www.mysite.com/lo/site_templates/site_16_1.php";
?>

Doesn't work! Does work on a normal webpage but not through SY blog.

Any suggestions?

Hi!

Yes, the HTML Nugget plugin is only for HTML, as the description indicates.

You can use the "serendipity_plugin_externalphp" plugin ("External PHP application") for the sidebar.

Thanks Gavin, works a treat. I asked my host to treat html pages as php so I thought the html nugget might respond to this also!

Thanks again!
