Title: addphp and modules
Post by: xmanhattan on July 03, 2011, 12:22:45

Hello all,

I just tried to use addphp inside a module but I am not seeing any of my output.  The program is small and only for a test to echo one line of content.

I checked it by placing the same code

Code: [Select]

{addphp file=/programtest/test.php} into a regular content page and that works.

Does the bot work inside of modules or am I doing something wrong?

a bot can't run inside a module.

Just create a module to run your php file.

That's what I thought.

Thanks Creative

correct and preferable solution

alternative:
try this trick->  add the bot in a content-item then use a module(look EDC) to load this content-item in the module!

But with this way you will increase the number of requests.
