Add a Header / Footer option to each forum

/* -----------------9/16/2005 8:25AM-----------------
Add a Header / Footer option to each forum V.1.0
Tested on vBulletin: 3.5.0 RC2,RC3

This is a Port from a previous hack by ChurchMedia.

*** Header/Footer For Each Forum and Threads in that Forum (VB 3.0x) - BY: ChurchMedia
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=65890

*** Info:
This modification will allow you to add an extra, unique header and footer for each forum.
You can use HTML, javascript, but no PHP.

--------------------------------------------------*/

Upload the "Product" and edit 2 templates, It's a snap.
:rambo:

There is also an Upgrade XML file for all the users that upgrated from VB3.x vs. new install.

I looked and played with the location of the 2 Variables:

Quote:

$foruminfo[forumheader] // header
$foruminfo[forumfooter] // footer

The ver. that ChurchMedia did makes 2 edits to 2 template(below).

(ForumDisplay, Showthread - after $navbar and before $footer)

Quote:

$navbar
<------------------------------------------->
BELOW ADD:
<------------------------------------------->
$foruminfo[forumheader]
<------------------------------------------->

$footer
<------------------------------------------->
ABOVE ADD:
<------------------------------------------->
$foruminfo[forumfooter]

-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+--
2b.) Revised Ideas

Note: I make 1 edit to 2 templates

$foruminfo[forumheader] to the "navbar" template (after everything to show up under)
OR
$foruminfo[forumheader] to the "header" template (many places) to show up on both ForumDisplay, Showthread.

AND
$foruminfo[forumfooter] to the "footer" template to show up on both ForumDisplay, Showthread.

****
On every page except forumdisplay.php and showthread.php the Variables will not show up.

-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+--
*** Useage:

For extra header/footer go to Forums & Moderators => Forum Manager => Edit forum => scroll do to the bottom enter your details.

This is great, good plugin. Anychance of having a similiar plugin made, to add html / javascript to the top or bottom of every page including forums home page ? The plugin of this type would be an easy way to add menu's etc., without having to go and mingle it with other stuff on an existing header.

Yes that is what I have already done, you just have to find the exact spot to put each time you update it, it is not a big deal by no means, just thought a separate place to enter the extra code without being concerned or finding the spot might make it easilier if you update/change it often.

Hi I have a short but important question

we used the hack from ChurchMedia, and upgraded to vb3.5 The header/footers html is still showing in all forums.

When I upgrade with the XML, will this delete the old html ?

This will do all the mods of a normal install and skip the database edits. It will add the code to uninstall the product (removes database, templates, phrases). This way if you want to remoe the edits you can.

Here is a simple JAVA random banner code you can paste in the HTML area.

EX:
This will show @ random.

image1.jpg @ http://yoursite1.com
image2.jpg @ http://yoursite2.com
image3.jpg @ http://yoursite3.com

Code:

<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">

<!-- 

function banner() { 

}; 



banner = new banner(); 

number = 0; 



// bannerArray 

banner[number++] = "<a href='http://yoursite1.com' target='_blank'><img src='/banners/image1.jpg' alt='' border='0' /></a>"

banner[number++] = "<a href='http://yoursite2.com' target='_blank'><img src='/banners/image2.jpg' alt='' border='0' /></a>"

banner[number++] = "<a href='http://yoursite3.com' target='_blank'><img src='/banners/image3.jpg' alt='' border='0' /></a>" 

 

// keep adding items above here... 



increment = Math.floor(Math.random() * number); 

document.write(banner[increment]); 



//-->

</script>

Useage: If you need more banners edit / add another row.

Code:

banner[number++] = "<a href='http://www.yoursite1.com' target='_blank'><img src='/banners/image1.jpg' alt='' border='0' /></a>"

I thanked you on Churchmedia's thread, but thanks again for the upgrade ;)

I have a suggestion: It would be nice to have a "master" header and footer, ones that would display on all forums, so you don't have to go in and enter the information for every single forum. Right now I have to make my changes, and then copy and paste it into the 15+ forums.

Likely my suggestion has already been covered in some really easy manner, and once again I am gonna look like a moron... lol

Great hack! I was looking for this.

But there use to be a hack where you just specified the file (html, or whatever) and select which forum it would be shown in. This way, you just update that one html file and it will automatically update in all the forums you selected.

With your mod, I have to copy and paste the same html into all the forums I want it to show. And I don't want the other option, which is to have it show in ALL forums.

So basically, is there any way where we can specify the html for the header and footer and in a textbox, list all the forum IDs (the comma separated method) we want it to show in?

these are HTML areas in your header / footer templates: I did this to make the header and footers easy for me to edit all the time :)

( This was off the top of head code.)

Code:

<if condition="$foruminfo[forumid]=='6,7,8,9,10,2000'">

Custom banner HTML code

<else />

Custom banner HTML code2 or default image HTML code

</if>

I wanted to just exclude several forums, the ones that were my category forums. The code above didn't work for me with the commas separating the numbers, so I just made a long messy conditional that works for me.

Code:

<if condition="$foruminfo[forumid]!='10' AND $foruminfo[forumid]!='11' AND $foruminfo[forumid]!='16'">

-shrug- it works, that's all I care about. :)

Yes Sir,

This was made from an Idea of a member here on vb.org. They wanted a simple way to update the header/footer per forum vs. have to edit the header/footer template all the time and "goof something up" by mistake.

- You can paste any html / java / dhtml (no php code)

- There are a few options:
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/member.php?userid=6872

[vB 3.5.0] Add Extra Header / Footer
[vB 3.5.0] Add Extra Header / Footer to FORUMHOME
[vB 3.5.0] Add a Header / Footer option to each forum
[vB 3.5.0] Add a banner image to each forum (vb3.5)

This is a cool hack.

How about making the navbar as an option also in this hack?

Ok,
Pretty much what I would like to do is add text to the example you showed(above the links in the navbar). I would like to have different text for the different forums. This would leave the header for a banner.
You would add this text via the admin cp in where you have added the extra header and footer.

hopefully I made more sense.

Please can you let me know how and what to change for the thread display ones?
