IMPORTANT NOTICE FOR V.2.2.8 (OR LATER) USERS:

As I mentioned in the conditional help message , I have discovered a bug in vbulletin while coding this hack. I coded the hack in 2.2.6 and 2.2.7 and report the bug in vbulletin.com. Vbulletin 2.2.8 fixed the bug I reported but I have recently discovered that while fixing the issue, 2.2.8 might also be clashing with my hack since it changed the way you insert texts to vb settings page..

I'm not a 2.2.8 user (yet), so can't provide you with a 100% tested solution, but if you want to use this hack in your board, I believe this should work for you:

Install the hack as mentioned in the instructions. If it does not work as it should be (for example you might see $bbuserinfo[username] instead of your name in the test announcement) then IN STEP 4 use this code instead of the code in the instructions:

PHP Code:

// Logician Dynamic Forum Announcements Hack
$dynamic_fha=strchr($optionstemp['template'],'$dynamic_fha = "');
$dynamic_fha=str_replace('\$', '$', $dynamic_fha);
eval($dynamic_fha);
$dfh_announcement=dynamic_a($dynamic_fha);
// Logician Dynamic Forum Announcements Hack 


(Notice the one extra line)

(THIS CODE IS FOR 2.2.8 (OR LATER) USERS, DO NOT APPLY THIS IF YOU ARE USING vb VERSION <2.2.8!)

This should cure the problem and I believe you can use the hack without any problems in your board too.

Enjoy..
