I’m not sure what your “VRL_LISTINGS” is supposed to represent. If you’re getting a blank page, then that usually indicates a PHP error — so check your php logs or add this to your config file:
define('WP_DEBUG', true)
I would recommend that you use a dedicated folder to store your snippets: using the site’s root web directory is a poor choice because you could potentially redundantly load up core WP files. The correct way to set this up is to use a sub-directory, and then properly reference the sub-directory in your Settings.
I am quite a noob. On the php script that i am using it gives me these instructions:
Step 1. Copy and paste the code below at the very top of your .php page. It should be line 1 of your .php web page.
<?php
ob_start();
?>
Step 2. Copy and paste the code below into your html code, where properties will be displayed.
{VRL_LISTINGS}
Step 3. Copy and paste the code below at the very bottom of your .php web page after all the other code.
<?php include ‘/home/naturist/public_html/login/app/views/pjLayouts/pjActionListings.php’; ?>
I created the file: holidays.php following the steps above and this works however i would like to have this script run on the homepage within wordpress. I have tried so many different insert php plugins with no luck. I added the snippets to the default location where you added the test snippets.
I can’t debug someone else’s code for you, but it sounds like it might be a bit cleaner to modify your template instead of trying to add this as a snippet.
I would be happy to pay you to change the wp file so i could call the script to the homepage just under the: Latest Naturist Holidays Photo Albums widget. I am unsure where to add the php code in the template. I guess once this is done i can just use the shortcode: {VRL_LISTINGS} to get the properties listed
