Many thanks, after adding "global $foruminfo;", it is working.
But now I've another problem. I've added a custom field to the 'forum' table. I did this directly in phpMyAdmin, because I could not make the following installcode work:

	require_once(DIR . '/includes/class_dbalter.php');
	$db_alter = new vB_Database_Alter_MySQL($db);

	if($db_alter->fetch_table_info('forum')) {
		$db_alter->add_field(
			array(
				'name'       => 'ivw_code',
				'type'       => 'varchar',
				'length'     => '25',
				'attributes' => '',
				'null'       => true,
				'default'    => '',
				'extra'      => ''
			)
		);
	}
	unset($db_alter);

Anyway, now the SQL field is existing in the table 'forum', but in my hook, $foruminfo does not include this field: $foruminfo['ivw_code'] is not set, although the database contains data for this forum in this column. What am I doing wrong?
