What do mean specifically? A home url on the actual flash movie?

It is designed to replace the existing vBulletin logo which is left-aligned. You can easily center the flash movie by adding a new div, using the code below:

Code:

<!-- vbFlash Header Start -->

<div align="center">

<div id="vbheader">

Warning!!! To view enable JavaScript and Flash! 

</div>

      <script type="text/javascript">

   var fo = new FlashObject("vbflashheader.swf", "vbheader", "800", "150", "8,0,0,0", "#e1e1e2");

   fo.addParam("quality", "high");

   fo.write("vbheader");

</script>

</div>

<!-- vbFlash Header End -->

Hope that helps.:)

thanks alot cyrus :D

This mod does not work in Firefox 2. The fix requires the Flash object to have transparent wmode.

Solution: FIND in Header template:

Quote:

fo.addParam("quality", "high");

Before that, ADD:

Quote:

fo.addParam("wmode", "transparent");

Save the edited template and the Flash Header should now show. ;)

Thanks vbboarder... I'll add this parameter. Strangely enoughly it must be one I've missed, however most people do not have DHTML menus above the header, but if they do then certain dropdowns would drop behind this flash object.

Regards.

See attachment.

Have tried also adding the full path to the XML file as well... still no joy...

If anyone else has got it working, let me know... all works fine in the main forum pages....

Most likely I have missed something somewhere... been a novice... :)

But here's what you'll need to do.

Find the following line in javascript call within the header template:

Code:

var fo = new FlashObject("vbflashheader.swf", "vbheader", "800", "150", "8,0,0,0", "#e1e1e2");

You'll see "vbflashheader.swf" - you will need to prepend this file with the full url to the flash file, for example:
"http://www.domain.com/forums/vbflashheader.swf"

This ensures the code looks in the correct directory for the flash file. The XML file should be automatically picking up the images if you haven't changed the xheader folder name.

Hope that helps! :)

I also could not get the images to display when vbAdvanced is not at the forum root (ie: one directory above forum root). It appears that the vbflashheader script loads but cannot display the images (the powered by vbFlash Headers shows, but no images). Solution:

Since the vbflashheader.swf uses a relative path to link to the images.xml file, you need to copy the images.xml file and xheader folder to the portal directory (ie: one directory above forum root). Optional: if you don't want to move the xheader folder (but still need to move images.xml), then you'll need to change the image paths to absolute paths in images.xml. Your images should now display on the portal page :D
