Hi folks, This is my first post on this group. I am integrating PHPTAL and Wordpress 2.5.
I have thus far converted just the index.php page of my Wordpress theme in to a template and am really enjoying myself. It's a learning curve, of course, but so far no terrible issues. One thing that I am really stressing over, however... In Wordpress, a theme is installed in the /wp-content/themes/ folder, including all dependencies and associated files. It would make sense for me then to install PHPTAL somewhere in there. However no matter what I do, all I get is a "white screen of death" (a PHP error of some sort). Now, not being a PHP guru, I don't know what to do. The only location I can seem to install PHPTAL is the web root. Also, if I try and add PHPTAL into the code via a "global include" that effects all pages, then it immediately "white screens" all Wordpress admin pages. Again, I have no idea what's going on. The only way I have managed to get PHPTAL not to mess it all up is via an include in the template PHP file itself, just before intantiating the template object, and so forth. Any earlier in the PHP execution sequence and Wordpress gets upset. However it's all just white-screening for me so I can't diagnose the issue. Can anyone help me on this? I am so so so keen to integrate PHPTAL with a whole new kind of Wordpress theming/templating platform I'm working on, which will allow a whole new level of power and flexibility, however I can't with the present problem of intolerance which Wordpress 2.5 and PHPTAL have for each other. Many thanks for any advice. By the way, I use MAMP, and a colleague who also uses mamp has had the same problem. Cheers, -Alister PS. Happy to send the code I'm working on to the person who can commit to "secrecy" and to working the problem out with me :) -- Alister Cameron Managing Director Cameron Creative Pty Ltd www.cameroncreative.com Creative, Strategic, Innovative... never boring!
