This hack can work where ForumID can be used. The FORUMHOME does not have in "ID". There is a way that you can set a default banner that does not change via AdminCP. I have worked the banner in the $header to construct a default banner if there is not one filled in. This wil also show the default image in the FORUMHOME (in red, below).

Code:

<if condition="$foruminfo['banner'] AND $foruminfo['bannerlink']"><center><a href="$foruminfo[bannerlink]" target="_blank"><img src="$foruminfo[banner]" alt="$foruminfo[banneralt]" border="0" /></a></center><br />

<else />

<if condition="$foruminfo['banner']"><center><img src="$foruminfo[banner]" alt="$foruminfo[banneralt]" border="0" /></center><br />

<else />

<if condition="$foruminfo['bannercode']"><center>$foruminfo[bannercode]</center><br />

<else />

<a href="http://www.yoursite.com"><img src="images/banner/default.gif" border="0" alt="banner image" /></a>

</if>

</if>

</if>

You could also just edit the FORUMHOME:
after $navbar

Code:

<a href="http://www.yoursite.com"><img src="images/banner/default.gif" border="0" alt="banner image" /></a>

Fill in your info. (this will be static, but will work)

is there no way to make it not static?
a coder might explain it better, but how about this way?

in vbulletin options you can give a default banner.
if you leave this blank, the forum displays the specific thread banner

like:

PHP Code:


		
			
<if condition="$foruminfo['bannerdefault'] ... //vbulletin options for default

<else />

<if condition="$foruminfo['banner']... // forum options

</if

</if

don't laugh - i'm a noob in php :rolleyes:

I understand. Yes this could be done.

I might move the template edit to the end of the $navbar, so that it would be on every page. The drawback of this is that programs that use the $navbar (gallery, non-VB pages, CMS front ends, etc .) would also have the banner under the navbar.

Ill look in on it.

Everyone else seems to have no issue, so I feel a little dumb asking this.

I got this installed fine through the plugin manager, but once I added the code to the two templates I get "Parse error: parse error, unexpected '<' in /www/b/batavia/htdocs/forums/forumdisplay.php on line 336" when I try to access a forum and a simpilar error when I try to go direct to a thread.

I am a php newbie, so not sure what i am doing wrong...
