If you like me you really have to take your forum/site offline. To make it worse the vbulletin default forum/site closed screen is just too much or not how you would like to have it. With this mod you can easily change the way you forum/site looks like when your updating or just working on maintenance.
Installation:
Installed the product
Edit the template zClosed to your liking
Order a pizza and bring it to me
The template zClosed should be at the bottom of you list of templates or atleast near to the bottom.
The template zClosed is a basic vb4 template but you can change it however you would want to see it.
This should work with no problem on any vb4 forum. So far I have tested it up all the way to Gold PL1 personally.
This was originally done by Paul M and was mainly updated and will now be supported by me with his permission.
my site is at www.brotherhoodofgamers.com and for some reason it keeps spamming the chatbox with the image and the text, I don't know why, I disable the chatbox and try again and it then works fine, anyone know how to fix this please?
Plus even when I disable the chatbox, for some reason it shows the "closed site" content only in middle, footer and the top of the site/login is still visible, the navbar.
Nevermind I figured it out. You put that chatbox in your navbar which makes it global. Becuase the <!-- {SHOUTBOX} --> will be on every single page even if the site is closed it will show no matter what.
You have 2 options:
1. Disabled the chatbox when you close you forums
2. Customise the zClosed template. (may just want to try removing {vb:raw navbar} )
If you need help making a template just for you send me a pm.
Here's something easy for you to do. Replace everything in the zClosed Template with this
Code:
{vb:stylevar htmldoctype}
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" dir="{vb:stylevar textdirection}" lang="{vb:stylevar languagecode}" id="vbulletin_html">
<head>
<title>{vb:raw vboptions.bbtitle} is currently closed</title>
</head>
<body bgcolor="#000000" text="#222222" link="#222222" vlink="#222222">
<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />
<center>
<img src="http://www.brotherhoodofgamers.com/images/styles/augreensmc/gradients/augreen_logo.png">
<br />
{vb:raw vboptions.bbtitle} is currently closed for some serious updating.
<br>
We are doing our best to actually work on the site. We just not playing games, well not all the time.
</body>
</html>
Just an example of possibilities you have with it.
