    Hi,

    I am new to Php. I want to know in which file should I include a variable name something like var_name="Y" so that I can get the value of var_name in all the code files of phpbb.

    Hope someone replies soon, before I lose my interest in modifing the code :)

    Thanks in advance.

    Any header file that is included by all phpBB files (like the sql or config files). No recent experience with phpBB, but I think this was the case when I had to modify it once. Use the built in $GLOBALS super-global so you can all it from functions. http://uk2.php.net/global - This will tell you more.

    maybe you can add the variable into the includes/functions.php because all/most of the files include() it.
