Kieran- Isn't this section a redundant version of PHPTemplate's built-in node templating? "We can also have customing theming based on nodetype using the following if($node->type =='nodetype'){ include 'nodetype.tpl.php'; } " Unless there have been major changes to 4.7, you do this by naming theme files: node-NODETYPE.tpl.php And PHPTemplate automatically finds and uses them. So this code is redundant. - Ken Rickard agentrickard
