2 templates for the same forum

[pdatoon]

Hi guys,

I was wondering if we can set up two templates for the same forum. I dont want to have people to select the template they want, but instead have the template to change upon browser detection.

Is that possible?

Or for example by url :

www.mysite.com/forum ---> template1
www.mysite.com/pocketforum --> template2

Any ideas

You can force users to view a certain template when they enter specified forums, etc.

What do you mean by www.mysite.com/forum ---> template1
www.mysite.com/pocketforum --> template2

If it means 2 different forums, then that'd be easy, but I guess you don't mean that.

Hi Gary

Thank you for your reply.

Yeah i know we force people to view a certain template for different sections of the forum. But for the whole same forum?

about the same second example. When people click on url 1, they have template 1, when they click on url 2 they have template 2.

Basically changing the template depending on the door they use to enter the forum.

thank you for your help.

I'm not too sure on how you could do that. I'm sure there are others who could have a solution, though.

Yes, you can do it. It's called co-branding. If you search both here and the .com site, you will find some simple code to put in your header that allows you to do this.

I remember seeing it back when I first bought Vbulletin, but have never had a need to use it.
