I extended this hack a bit to put a sponsor ad in a particular forum.

To do this, I added a new template called forumdisplay_sponsoredby and put this in it:

PHP Code:

<br><br><a href="$foruminfo[sponsorurl]" target="_blank"><img src="{imagesfolder}/$foruminfo[sponsorimg]" border="0" alt="Proudly sponsored by $foruminfo[sponsorname]"></a>
<br> 


I then edited forumdisplay.php so that

PHP Code:

if ($foruminfo['sponsorimg']) {
  eval("\$sponsoredby = \"".gettemplate('forumdisplay_sponsoredby')."\";");
}
else {
  $sponsoredby = '';
} 


was immediately AFTER

PHP Code:

if ($foruminfo['allowposting']==1) {
  eval("\$newthreadlink = \"".gettemplate('forumdisplay_newthreadlink')."\";");
} 


and forumdisplay_sponsoredby was included in the list of required templates.

Finally, I added $sponsoredby to my forumdisplay template.

Sorry for the clumsy explanation. It took a bit of putzing around for me to get this to work, but it does.
