(Request) How to Change the link for the "Post new Thread Button"

In the FORMDISPLAY template you will find this code:

Code:

<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="100%" style="margin-bottom:3px">

<tr valign="bottom">

        <td class="smallfont"><if condition="$show['newthreadlink']"><a href="newthread.php?$session[sessionurl]do=newthread&amp;f=$foruminfo[forumid]" rel="nofollow"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/newthread.gif" alt="$vbphrase[post_new_thread]" border="0" /></a><else />&nbsp;</if></td>

        <if condition="$pagenav"><td align="$stylevar[right]">$pagenav</td></if>

</tr>

</table>

If i'm not mistaken, this code displays the newthread button that you click to start a new thread. Is it possible to to edit this so that if a user is in a certine forum (for example forumdisplay.php?f=7) I can have this "Post new thread" button link to what ever I want.

Is this possible? I just can't seem to figure this out.

Hope someone can help.

You could use conditionals, such as:

Code:

<if condition="$foruminfo[forumid]==7">what you want here<else />new thread button here</if>

Hi and thanks cris for your help. but i'm having a bit of trouble. This is what I have but doesnt seem to work. can you tell me what I did wrong?

Code:

<tr valign="bottom">

        <td class="smallfont"><if condition="$foruminfo[forumid]==7"><a href="newthread.php?do=mp3post" rel="nofollow"><else /><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/newthread.gif" alt="$vbphrase[post_new_thread]" border="0" /></a></if><if condition="$show['newthreadlink']"><a href="newthread.php?$session[sessionurl]do=newthread&amp;f=$foruminfo[forumid]" rel="nofollow"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/newthread.gif" alt="$vbphrase[post_new_thread]" border="0" /></a><else />&nbsp;</if></td>

        <if condition="$pagenav"><td align="$stylevar[right]">$pagenav</td></if>

</tr>

and this is what I added to the code above.

<if condition="$foruminfo[forumid]==7"><a href="newthread.php?do=mp3post" rel="nofollow"><else /><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/newthread.gif" alt="$vbphrase[post_new_thread]" border="0" /></a></if>

        <if condition="$pagenav"><td align="$stylevar[right]">$pagenav</td></if>

</tr>

That should work :)
