Place a scrolling marquee on navbar (header) · **Released**: 11-08-2005

This is a very simple html code to place in your navbar but it's really cool!

Hack updated to version 1.5, now using phrases manager!

First, you need to create the marquee phrase, which you can edit it anytime you want using the phrase manager, goto:
Admincp >> Languages & Phrases >> Phrase Manager >> Add New Phrase
and add the following

Phrase Type: GLOBAL
Product: vBulletin
Varname: marquee
Text: *The marquee that you wanna display*

now open your navbar template:
Admincp >> Styles & Templates >> Style Manager >> *template* >> navbar

Find this code

HTML Code:

</table>
		<input type="hidden" name="s" value="$session[sessionhash]" />
		<input type="hidden" name="do" value="login" />		
		<input type="hidden" name="vb_login_md5password" />
		<input type="hidden" name="vb_login_md5password_utf" />
		</form>
		<!-- / login form -->
			
		</td>
		
	</if>	
	
</tr>

Place under it

HTML Code:

<tr>
  <td colspan="3" class="alt1"><marquee><span class="smallfont"><b><font color="#FF0000">$vbphrase[marquee]</font></b></span></marquee></td>
  </tr>

If you have already installed it, all you have to do is replace the navbar code with the new one that includes the $vbphrase[marquee]

No, I mean on the actual browser page. Where it says "Done" in the bottom left hand corner. I've seen it on a few websites and wondered how you do it?
Thanks

what you're looking for has nothing to do with this hack or anything related to VB
it's a free javascript code which u can find everywhere, it's called status bar!

Aha! Thank you! I knew it was a javascript but I couldn't find it.

funinthesun · #28 11-10-2005, 10:19 PM

Where do I copy the script to? It says to place it in the <body> of the <head> section but I can only find the header template which doesn't have a <body> tag?

Installed and thanks for this.

"PS: if anyone is interested in making the message controled from the admincp, please be my guest to work on it!"

The ghetto way would be to use a phrase. You can then edit it, whatever, from the phrase manager.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
