Using conditionals to control banners based on forum

[punchbowl]

:cross-eyed:

e.g. I've got 3 forums

1.general
2.adult
3.gambling

and want to insert specific advertising code under the navbar for each.

Something like this should work:

<if condition="$forum[forumid] == 1>general banner code
<else />
<if condition="$forum[forumid] == 2>adult banner code
<else />
<if condition="$forum[forumid] == 3>gambling banner code
</if>

[not real world code - probably use arrays]


but I'm not sure that $forum[forumid] is passed to newreply or individual threads e.g. if someone opens up a thread in the gambling forum will vb know what forum it's in automatically.

Cheers

You might want to try this! (replace forum numbers with your own and don't forget to include categories!)

<if condition="in_array($forumid, array(1,2,5,6,7,9))">
<div align="center">hello general people!</div>
<else />
<if condition="in_array($forumid, array(3,4))">
<div align="center">hello pervs!</div>
<else />
<if condition="in_array($forumid, array(10,11))">
<div align="center">hello gamblers!</div>
</if>
</if>
</if>
