Announcements in Threadview?

Hello
i have a small question:
is it possible to display the forum's announcements also in the connecting threads?

i would like to display the announcements under the toolbar in the threadview pages

therefore i tried to realise this by adding the "$announcebits" variable into the showthread template but without success ;(

can anyone help?

that would be great :)

Bye Diver

1 Open Template: ShowThread

2 Find:


3 Afer that Add:
<br><center>$announcebits</center><br>

...I think it looks much better if you place the $announcebits after $navbar without the <br>'s.

4 Open File:
showthread.php

5 Find the comment line:
####SHOW THREAD IN LINEAR MODE#####

6 Before that block of code place the code below. It's copied from forumdisplay, with a small modification to the SELECT statement.

Code:

###################################################

// get announcements



        $announcebits = '';



        $announcements = $DB_site->query("

                SELECT

                        announcementid, startdate, title, announcement.views,

                        user.username, user.userid, user.usertitle, user.customtitle

                FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "announcement AS announcement

                LEFT JOIN " . TABLE_PREFIX . "user AS user ON(user.userid = announcement.userid)

                WHERE startdate <= " . (TIMENOW - $vboptions['hourdiff']) . "

                        AND enddate >= " . (TIMENOW - $vboptions['hourdiff']) . "

                             AND forumid =".$foruminfo['forumid']."

                ORDER BY startdate DESC

                " . iif($vboptions['oneannounce'], "LIMIT 1"));



        while ($announcement = $DB_site->fetch_array($announcements))

        {

                if ($announcement['customtitle'] == 2)

                {

                        $announcement['usertitle'] = htmlspecialchars_uni($announcement['usertitle']);

                }

                        $announcement['postdate'] = vbdate($vboptions['dateformat'], $announcement['startdate']);

                if ($announcement['startdate'] > $lastread)

                {

                        $announcement['statusicon'] = 'new';

                }

                else

                {

                        $announcement['statusicon'] = 'old';

                }

                $announcement['views'] = vb_number_format($announcement['views']);

                $announcementidlink = iif(!$vboptions['oneannounce'] , "&amp;announcementid=$announcement[announcementid]");



                eval('$announcebits .= "' . fetch_template('forumdisplay_announcement') . '";');

        }

7 Save and you're done

wow thank you so much for your help :)

but i have 2 problems:
- global announcements are not shown, only forum specified announcements
- the announcement row in showthread doesn't match the 'forumdisplay_announcement' design

i added the 'forumdisplay_announcement' template into the precached template list in showthread.php but the colors are still wrong

do you know what i can do now?

it would be great, if you could help me :)

CP Panel > VBulletin Options > Forum Display Options (forumdisplay) > Group Announcements...set this to No and all announcements will show seperately, otherwise they are all grouped under one announcement

Open the template ShowThread and put a opening and closing HTML tag around $announcebits;like this:
<table border=0 width=100%>
$announcebits
</table>

...you may need to open forumdisplay_announcement template and set the width of the first <td> tag (which hold the image icon).

thank you so much for your help now it is working without problems :)

but for enabling the global announcements i changed the following line:
AND forumid =".$foruminfo['forumid']."

into this:
AND forumid =".$foruminfo['forumid']." OR forumid = -1

just in case if you also want to use it :)

[QUOTE=Meltdown]CP Panel > VBulletin Options > Forum Display Options (forumdisplay) > Group Announcements...set this to No and all announcements will show seperately, otherwise they are all grouped under one announcement

Thats what i was looking for.

it was really starting to annoy me.

thanks.
