I'm looking for a hack that will allow you to customize virtually every aspect of your forums, from forum banners to color schemes, to images all from your admin cp under Edit Forums. :)

Anyboy have a hack like this, or something similiar? If not anyone want to make one? :D

How would someone anticipate the particulars of how each vBulletin owner wanted to customize their forums?

Have you ever used ezboard? (Almost everyone has) I'm looking for something that allows you to customize your forums like ezboard lets you. Ikonboard had a way to change forum banners from your admin cp, but it wasn't as customizable as EZ...

I know vBulletin and even Ikonboard have many more useful features than EZ, but being able to customize your forums was a nice bonus for EZ.

@ heretic - No, I'd rather not make an entire style set for each forum I want to customize. I want something that will allow you to edit the look of the forum when editing things like the forum name/decription etc...

To expound on why it sucks to make a style set for each forum..

Each time you install a hack with template modifications, you'd have to install it on each style if you wanted the hack to work in every forum.. :(

Ok, well that is a useful hack, but it's not what I'm looking for....

Anyone up to write this hack?

I am not sure if it can be done...

You would have to point out the EXACT features you would like...

i think the vb admin control panel is the easiest i have used...

i think there shud be an upload feature included tho where u can upload ure image sets, php files etc

wud be very useful.... vbengine is the closest but if u are jus an admin and haven't got acess thru an ftp if u muck somethin up in functions.php u cant fix it without goin on to ure host (or server) thru an ftp...
