I'm glad I found this solution here. Global content blocks is definitely something worth implementing for even better usability but not as high priority, of course.
Because my provider doesn't allow URL include, I am using the curl method as follows.
I added the following into the head section of my template:
<?php //--------PHP Blocks Script------------
function display_snippet($snippet){$ch = curl_init();$timeout = 5;curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_URL, WB_URL.'/pages/snippet/'.$snippet.'.php');curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANS FER, 1);curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_CONNECTTIME OUT, $timeout);$file_contents = curl_exec($ch);curl_close($ch);echo $file_contents;}
?>
In my pages I call the different blocks with load_snippet(testcontent);
Works perfectly fine for me.
Cheers
