Code: Select all

<?php
$current_path = getcwd();
chdir('/path/to/your/s9y/');
include_once('serendipity_config.inc.php');
$entries = serendipity_fetchEntries(null, true, 1);
$entry_link = serendipity_archiveURL($entries[0]['id'], $entries[0]['title'], 'baseURL', true, $entries[0]);
echo "<a href='$entry_link'>{$entries[0]['title']}</a>";
chdir($current_path);
?>

Frenchi wrote:Awesome! Thanks a ton Garvin! I did have to remove the first / from in front of the directory name in chdir (it wouldnt take '/log/serendipity/', but 'log/serendipity/' worked), in case it helps anyone in the future. Thanks again!

$date = serendipity_formatTime('%D', $entries[0]['timestamp']);
echo "{$date}";

So in your custom PHP code you need to also call up those markup plugins. Here's a forum post which should help you:

It's in german, but if you dont' understand it, the code examples on the bottom of the page should help you.

Basically you'd make it like this:

Code: Select all

<?php
$current_path = getcwd();
chdir('/path/to/your/s9y/');
include_once('serendipity_config.inc.php');
$entries = serendipity_fetchEntries(null, true, 1);
foreach($entries AS $i => $entry) {
  $entries[$i]['display_dat'] = '';
  serendipity_plugin_api::hook_event('frontend_display', $entries[$i]);
  serendipity_plugin_api::hook_event('frontend_display:html:per_entry', $entries[$i]);
  $entries[$i]['plugin_display_dat'] =& $entries[$i]['display_dat']; 
}
$entry_link = serendipity_archiveURL($entries[0]['id'], $entries[0]['title'], 'baseURL', true, $entries[0]);
echo "<a href='$entry_link'>{$entries[0]['title']}</a>";
echo $entries[0]['body'];
chdir($current_path);
?>
