Hi community,
I’m very new to EE (actually first heard about it last week or so). I’m rebuilding my online store from the ground up and EE sounded like just what I needed. From what I understand, I can add PHP to templates correct?
I run an online radio station using SAM Broadcaster. It comes with it’s own PHP pages for displaying what’s playing at the moment and you can specify how many songs you’d like to list in the “recently played” section and there is another page that is a directory of all the songs in your MySQL database (which is where the broadcaster pulls song info from) and users can request songs this way to be played on the station. Up until now I’ve been adding these pages to the site via iframe but controlling the height and width has been less than pretty (not to mention wysywig editors mess it up if I go in to edit it). But It seems like so much is possible with EE. I’m hoping I can take the code from the broadcaster PHP pages and integrate it directly into EE so I don’t have to use the broadcaster PHP pages at all.
What do you all think about this approach?
Thank you.
