Forum Display Enhancements - Forum Sponsor

Forum Sponsor
Made by Adrian at Dreamit.co.uk
Tested on 3.6.1

Hey,

I seen a few people wanting a modification like this, this adds some fields in the Edit Forum Options, and allows you add a forum sponsor.

It's a pritty basic mod'.
I didn't want to spend alot of time on it, it does the functions people wanted.

See the screenshots to get a better understanding.

Installation
Import product-sponsor.xml

Done.

Template Edit
Open Forum Display templates > FORUMDISPLAY

Find:

$navbar

Add after:

<if condition="$foruminfo['sponsorenabled'] == 1">
<table width="100%" class="tborder" border="0" align="center">
  <tr>
    <td class="alt1"><table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="5">
      <tr>
        <td width="10" rowspan="2" valign="middle"><div align="center"><a href="$foruminfo[sponsorlink]"><img src="$foruminfo[sponsorimage]" alt="$foruminfo[sponsorname] Image" border="0"></a></div></td>
        <td valign="top"><div align="left"><strong><a href="$foruminfo[sponsorlink]">$foruminfo[sponsorname]</a></strong></div></td>
      </tr>
      <tr>
        <td valign="top"><div align="left">$foruminfo[sponsordescription]</div></td>
      </tr>
    </table></td>
  </tr>
</table>
<br>
</if>

Done.

A quick install.

If you use this, please click installed.

Thanks.

Rather than just at the top of the forum index.

Can anyone help with this?


Is this mod still being supported?

[antiekeradio]

you could easily put the same code you change in forumview, in the threadview template.

fat chance it works right away.

Great mod! Simple, Clean & Easy! Thank you. Installed.

[daveh900]

Thanks for this mod!

Two things that would make it perfect:

• Some sort of click tracking

• The ability to open the link in a new window

Nice Mod. Installed it in a few seconds.

Installed on 3.6.5

For those of you who wanted it to say "Forum Sponsor" at the top and also wanted the links to open in the seperate window just change the code to the following:

PHP Code:

<if condition="$foruminfo['sponsorenabled'] == 1">
<table width="100%" class="tborder" border="0" align="center">
<tr>
<td width="100%" align="right">Forum Sponsor</td>
</tr>
  <tr>
    <td class="alt1"><table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="5">
      <tr>
        <td width="10" rowspan="2" valign="middle"><div align="center"><a href="$foruminfo[sponsorlink]" target="_blank"><img src="$foruminfo[sponsorimage]" alt="$foruminfo[sponsorname] Image" border="0"></a></div></td>
        <td valign="top"><div align="left"><strong><a href="$foruminfo[sponsorlink]" target="_blank">$foruminfo[sponsorname]</a></strong></div></td>
      </tr>
      <tr>
        <td valign="top"><div align="left">$foruminfo[sponsordescription]</div></td>
      </tr>
    </table></td>
  </tr>
</table>
<br>
</if> 


Hope this helps.

how i put 2 banners near of them?

[v12kid]

I am having brain freeze, I installed it but I dont see the settings tab in the admincp? Where am I missing it?

EDIt- found it!

anyone know if this guy is supporting his mod. I have a few suggestions!

[StuntFactoryX]

thank you. works great on 3.6.5

i also wish it worked on showthread above all threads in that forum. im not sure how much traffic my forum display gets. i think most my users go directly to each thread from vbadvanced "recent thread module" or "new posts" in the nav bar.

update.

i stuffed that code in my showthread template under $ navbar and it works. its shows above all threads too.
