Place a scrolling marquee on navbar (header)

This is a very simple html code to place in your navbar but it's really cool!

Hack updated to version 1.5, now using phrases manager!

First, you need to create the marquee phrase, which you can edit it anytime you want using the phrase manager, goto:
Admincp >> Languages & Phrases >> Phrase Manager >> Add New Phrase
and add the following

Phrase Type: GLOBAL
Product: vBulletin
Varname: marquee
Text: *The marquee that you wanna display*

now open your navbar template:
Admincp >> Styles & Templates >> Style Manager >> *template* >> navbar

Find this code

HTML Code:

</table>

                <input type="hidden" name="s" value="$session[sessionhash]" />

                <input type="hidden" name="do" value="login" />                

                <input type="hidden" name="vb_login_md5password" />

                <input type="hidden" name="vb_login_md5password_utf" />

                </form>

                <!-- / login form -->

                        

                </td>

                

        </if>        

        

</tr>

Place under it

HTML Code:

<tr>

  <td colspan="3" class="alt1"><marquee><span class="smallfont"><b><font color="#FF0000">$vbphrase[marquee]</font></b></span></marquee></td>

  </tr>

If you have already installed it, all you have to do is replace the navbar code with the new one that includes the $vbphrase[marquee]

I think Marquee does not work well on firefox. Only best on IE :)

FamilyGuy

11-09-2005 09:45 PM

I have tried it again in FF but still no go. Shame.

11-09-2005 10:45 PM

work with FF for me ;)

This modification is included in the Shiny Black Skin by Staircase :

Code:

The skin comes with a scrolling marquee. You can either totally get rid of it OR

you can edit it.



To edit it, edit your templates in the Admin CP. Go to Forum Home Templates ?

FORUMHOME. Below $navbar, there is a code like this:



<table class="tborder" align="center" border="0" cellpadding="6" cellspacing="0" width="100%">

<tbody><tr>

        <td class="tcat" align="center">

        Notice from the ADMINS!

        </td>

</tr>

</tbody><tbody id="collapseobj_forumhome_welcomepanel" style="">

        <tr>

                <td class="alt1" align="center" width="101%">

        <marquee>READ THE ANNOUNCEMENTS!! You could be banned if there is

        something important and YOU DON'T KNOW IT!</marquee>



                </td>

        </tr>

</tbody>

</table><br>



You can either remove it fully or you can edit:



        <marquee>READ THE ANNOUNCEMENTS!! You could be banned if there is

        something important and YOU DON'T KNOW IT!</marquee>



and:



Notice from the ADMINS!



if you want to change those.

you can use this:

HTML Code:

<marquee scrollamount="5">Pink Floyd</marquee>

you can increase it to make it run faster or dicrease it to make it run slower

No, I mean on the actual browser page. Where it says "Done" in the bottom left hand corner. I've seen it on a few websites and wondered how you do it?
Thanks :)

what you're looking for has nothing to do with this hack or anything related to VB
it's a free javascript code which u can find everywhere, it's called status bar!

check this page:

Where do I copy the script to? It says to place it in the <body> of the <head> section but I can only find the header template which doesn't have a <body> tag? :confused:

"PS: if anyone is interested in making the message controled from the admincp, please be my guest to work on it!"

The ghetto way would be to use a phrase. You can then edit it, whatever, from the phrase manager.

if you're talkin about the status bar message, I told you put it in your header or footer template, but if u're talkin about this hack, re-read the instructions!

funinthesun

11-13-2005 01:28 PM

It's about the java script. Yes, I know it should be placed in the header but where abouts as I can't see any tags that say <head> or <body> and it sais the code needs to be placed between them. :nervous: :confused:
