Sidebar block with PHP script in it

[Jake Hakoda Shirley]

Hey guys, I am trying to add a side block that lists all the users online on our Minecraft server. Does anyone know of a way I can do this? I have a .php file that outputs the list already, is there a way to just embed (no idea if you get what I am asking there) it into the side bar?

Create a PHP file and use your existing PHP file to output it in a variable to the templates.

What does your existing PHP file do?

All it does is pull an array of players from my Minecraft server and echos them.

I am not-so-technical with XenForo or PHP. Want to go more in-depth with your idea?

That's easy, I've written a similar plugin to display the currently active IRC users. See this thread:
