Dynamic Announcements: Programmable Forum Home Announcement/Message with conditionals
Developer Last Online: Nov 2023
(This hacks works with both 3.5.x and 3.6.x)
This hack allows you to post powerful dynamic announcements (changing according to different conditions) on forum home page. It differs from vbulletin's default announcements in 2 ways:
This version of the hack is for vbulletin 3.5.x and 3.6.x (vb 3.0.x version is here and vb 2.x version is here. 3.5 version is coded as a plugin so you can install it WITHOUT modifying vb PHP files. It is easily installed in 2 steps through your admin cp. Basic Usage of This Hack: You can set a text in your Admin CP and it's displayed in forum home to all users. Alternatively if you want, you can set another text as a popup announcement and it is displayed to all as a pop up announcement (it can't be killed with popup killers software!) Advanced Usage : With conditionals you can set different texts/notifications/messages/announcements and they will be displayed if your pre-configured condition applies. This allows you to create powerful announcements/private messages/texts which address their receipt only if a certain condition is met. Some examples: You can set to show an announcement in forum home IF:
Here is a Screenshot from a popup announcement. Some Features:
* For CMPS Integration see here * French Translation by Allan : https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....&postcount=143 * Nested Conditionals by dc3dreamer : https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....&postcount=175 * Hack Annoucement appears in all vb pages: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...498#post911498 IMPORTANT FOR 3.x USERS: If you were already using this hack in 3.0.x, remember to do 2 things: BEFORE YOU INSTALL THIS HACK : Follow this instructions to remove the remnants of 3.0.x hack. AFTER YOU INSTALL THIS HACK : Go to your admin cp / styles, find these 3 styles: dfh_announcement dfh_announcement_headercode dfh_announcement_popup and REVERT THEM so that your new templates that comes with 3.5 version will apply. About vb4.x version: I didn't consider porting this hack to vb4 because vbulletin has now a VERY SIMILAR feature in vb4 called "NOTICES". You can find it under your admin cp/Notices submenu/Notice Manager. It is not as powerful as this hack as this hack allows you to use any kind of conditional to produce your announcement but it is more user friendly because you don't need to deal with conditional syntax, you simply build your announcement (notice) with menus If you install the hack, click INSTALL, thank you..

Hi! Anyone can help me to do this? When users enter and login to forum homepage,popup will appear but only one time.Users won't see popup again when they're back to forum homepage.This will help to avoid reading popup a lot of time which users usually feel displeased.I think if it's successful,this mod will be perfect.On the other hand,anyone knows how to make popup move along scroll bar?
I love this mod thanks. |
