Blocks with php & queries

Featured Replies

Posted

I want to have a block in Block Manager which queries a different database to the IPB database, but it doesn't seem to work (the code has been tested and works OK in a standalone PHP script).

The script fails when the query is run, on this line

-----------------
$result = mysqli_query($dbconnect,$sql)
-----------------

Is anyone able to tell me how I can get it working, please?

well, weirdly the php block thingy doesn't seem to like 'include_once', but it likes 'include'. No idea why that might be, but changing that cured by problem.
