In my previous(3.x) version of invision community setup. There are some pages in the menu, which have custom URL. I am not able to find which pages(php or html) it is pointing too. Can someone help ?

 

Not really sure what you're asking here. Could you clarify? With an example maybe.

Are you looking for pages on your filesystem there? If so, it may well be that they are not there, and instead in IP.Content within your admin CP. Not sure of the location off hand as I havent see that for quite a long while myself

            if( eval( $function ) === FALSE )
            {
                /* Throw exception for PHP 5 */
                throw new \InvalidArgumentException;
            }

4.7 doesn't support adding PHP code directly to a page. You need to create a PHP Block and then add it to the page itself.

Can i call functions from another files in the block file?

You would need to ensure you are using the correct location and that the file is readable there.

Im not sure what you mean here, as this appears to be essentially the same question

Issue is this when i m saving in admin section its parsing the content and loading the next line of code. Because the files are on the same location. But when i go to the frontend of the site to view the page

The url of the browser gets changed and its not able to find the file.

 

Are you using a relative path to load the file? Try using a full one instead. You can find the full path of the suite files in the Support page.

How i can get CP_DIRECTORY variable in block php code?

If your front_constants.php file is inside the admin directory (CP_DIRECTORY) you can use this:

require_once( \IPS\ROOT_PATH . '/' . \IPS\CP_DIRECTORY . '/front_constants.php' );

Instead, if it is in the root folder, where conf_global.php is located, use this:

require_once( \IPS\ROOT_PATH . '/front_constants.php' );
