Tested the the variable by putting Blacksmith95 and I also type the address in a browser to test it worked.

I can do that now I have full access to the whole server XD

Thanks for the advice all the other PHP works just not these rendering ones.

I should be able to copy and paste the code and it work right. I understand most of the stuff in the code. I copied and pasted the code into php tags and it wouldnt work.
