Banners instead of links for several sub-forums...?

My forum-structure looks like that:

Code:

MAINFORUM

   --- SUBFORUM1

      --- SUB1

      --- SUB2

      --- SUB3

      --- ...

   --- SUBFORUM2

      --- SUB1

      --- SUB2

      --- SUB3

      --- ...

No i want to do this:
I want in subforum1 to show up banners instead of links.
Exactly... it is a squad-forum for our gaming-clan.

Now we want to show up the squad-banners instead of the subforum-names - but only on this subforum. All other subforums should have the normal links...

Anyone know how to realize that?

Where the link is output in the templates, put in a conditional. Here's the pseudocode. Something along these lines. I didn't check what variables you would actually use. You'll have to take a look at these templates:

forumhome_forumbit_level1_nopost
forumhome_forumbit_level1_post
forumhome_forumbit_level2_nopost
forumhome_forumbit_level2_post
forumhome_subforumbit_nopost
forumhome_subforumbit_post

Code:

<a href="forumdisplay.php?f=$foruminfo[forumid]">

    <if condition="$foruminfo[forumid] == FORUMID">

           <!-- show banner -->

           <img src="path/to/image.jpg" alt="" /> 

   <else />

       <!-- show regular link text -->

       $foruminfo[title_clean]

    </if>

</a>

Thanks so far...

I just want the banners to show up in the forumindex/home, so i edited these templates...

forumhome_subforumbit_nopost
forumhome_subforumbit_post

Changed the forumid to the id of one of the subforums, saved the template and reloaded the forumindex...but there is still the text link - no banner.

For me it looks like somehow the if/else condition doesnt work.

Added this after the code from forumhome_subforumbit_post to test it out:

Code:

<if condition="$foruminfo[forumid] == 17">

      <b>lol</b>

   <else />

      <b>blah</b>

</if>

But now it is showing up blah after every subforum title...
So i guess, the <if condition="$foruminfo[forumid] == 17"> somehow isn't working right...

Any idea?

Use $forum[forumid]

Here's your forumhome_subforumbit_post template

Code:

 <img class="inlineimg" src="$stylevar[imgdir_statusicon]/subforum_$forum[statusicon].gif" alt="" border="0" id="forum_statusicon_$forum[forumid]" /> <a href="forumdisplay.php?$session[sessionurl]f=$forum[forumid]"><if condition="in_array($forum[forumid], array(17, 22, 45))"><img src="IMAGE_HERE" alt="" /><else />$forum[title]</if></a>
