Site Rules similar to this forum

[TimBrown]

I like how there is the 'Site Rules' link on this forum above which links to an actual page with the rules, I don't know if this is really a mod, but how can I do this on my forum?

You can do that using vBadvanced CMPS by adding a template and setting it to be the custom template for the whole page.

Just put your rules in that template and it'll show up as a static page with your forum's formatting and navbar, etc.

Another way is simply to create a php file with the css and header information added to the top and add your static html in that which will contain your rules.

Either way, you'll have to add a link to that page to the navbar like they did here.

No need to use anything else then standard vB to show a custom template with static text. You only need to create a template with a special name, and link to it.

Lol, wish i could remember now what that name was, i am sure that Brad will come to aid in this thread.

I have no trouble adding the link to the navbar, the only problem is that I don't know how to create a custom template/page with static text. Any help?

call the page via 'misc.php?do=page&template=test'
and add a new template by the name of 'custom_test'

NOTE: you must prepend 'custom_' to the new template
