Re: last 10 threads

Moved to Troubleshooting

You can't include a file on the filesystem using URL parameters. You either need to call it via the full URL or include just extern.php and set $_GET properly beforehand (which you can't do if you want this to show within PunBB, since extern.php wasn't meant to be called by PunBB scripts)
Also, adding PHP to your main.tpl involves calling pun_include, not using PHP directly. You can read more about it in the documentation.
