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.

Thanks a lot just what I need. In a couple of weeks http://www.PetMessageBoard.com will go live and you can check out your awesome mode there.
It is also easy to install even for a newbie. This is my 3rd mod install. I just wished you explained how to get to forumdisplay. If I did not have my past experience from installing "welcome headers" I would have been confused.

Ok, I'm a total noob... I figured out the second step due to the replies here, but how do I do step 1?

Import product-sponsor.xml

I went to Style and Templates, Download/Upload Styles and tried uploading the xml file there but it said it was invalid format...

How can I get links to open in a new window so people don't leave my sites?

Go into Plugins & Products - Manage Products - Add/Import Product

Can this be displayed at the top of every thread in the forum?

Rather than just at the top of the forum index.

This is the url where my forum sponsor is installed

http://www.petmessageboard.com/forum...isplay.php?f=7

The image is set in the edit forum "Enter the URL to the image sponsor." option as

http://www.pethall.com/pet_memorials...logo_small.gif

However the image does not come up and when you check the image properties on the board this is what I see below even though this is not what is on my control panel

http://www.petmessageboard.com/forums/

Please help.
