How can I put a text box on my home page?
 

Is there a way that I can put a text box on my home page? By text box I mean a block of text which I have pre-written to address all who visit the forums.

Thanks!
Jeff

Edit your forhumhome template with whatever.

Hello Dismounted,

Thanks for your reply!

I don't quite understand what you are saying here. Edit my template in the Control Panel? Or do you mean use a webpage editor like frontpage or Dreamweaver? Or what percisely are you referring to?

If I'm to use a page editor, what file is my template, and where is it located in my folder heirarchy?

SO can I make any changes that I want to it without any problem?

Thanks for the assistance!
Jeff

Thanks Dezelpope!

I'm still curious what you were referring to there Dismounted. Care to elaborate?

Thanks!

Basically if you know HTML, than play around with it and add a "Text Box" somewhere you want it.

I hate to sound ignorant... I know basic HTML, but what page do I add it to?

Can you just throw HTML into PHP pages and it works?

Is there a particular template page that I should edit for my home page?

Thanks!

As Dismounted stated, edit your Forumhome template if in fact the forum is your home page....

AdminCP > Styles & Templates > Style Manager > Edit Templates

Thanks Dyna,

Ok, so we're not taking about using a page editor like frontpage or dreamweaver, we are talking about editing from inside my vBulletin CP? Correct?

I'm just a bit confused here.

Thanks a bunch!
