2. Installation

Download and uncompress vcontent_XH.zip
Upload the entire vcontent directory to your "plugins" directory.

3. Configuration

Define variable names and their values in the admin part of this plugin

The Key is a variable name, Content is variable value visible on the page. Comment is optional and is never shown. It can be used to remember what the variable does. Define only one variable pr. line.

var1 | <p>some content text or html</p> | optional description of variable
var2 |value of var2 |

To activate insert { {{vcontent();}}} some place on a page (preferably at the end of page content) and variable names wrapped in the wrapper string from plugin config (default is #).

It may looks like this:

#var1# as a placeholder for the var1 value.{ {{vcontent();}}}

After the page is loaded #var1# will be replaced by the corresponding value. Vcontent is javascript based and works both on variables on the page and plugins output containing variables.

NB! your call to content in template must be wrapped in
<div id="content"><?php echo content();?></div>
