Making the Index different then the rest of the forums?

[Derek B]

Morning Everyone,

Myself and a designer are starting to tweak a test forum with a skin and we are wondering how to do somethings and if it is possible. These are the test forum with the skin being worked on the area that says "UFP Sim Test Forums" is the area we are wondering about at this exact moment. When we edit that box with the appearance we want it will also edit countless other box's like forums and so forth. This is something we would not like to do.

I would like the main index to be done differently then the rest of the forum mainly there is going to be graphics instead of colors on windows to make it a little more appealing. However is there anyway to isolate these box's so changes to them do not change countless windows throughout the board?

That's the navbar template in the forumhome template.

In the forumhome template you'll see:

$navbar

replace $navbar with whatever you want in forumhome

So we can just create a new bar place the image we would like to present on the homepage and then replace $navbar with the new title and on the main forum page it will display the image we want however on the rest of the forum it will display the navbar like normal?
