Simple global announcement
Version: 1.1.0, by tommykjensen tommykjensen is offline

Uses Plugins Template Edits
 
No support by the author.

Inspired by the Welcome headers hack I wanted to add a simple global announcement that I could turn on and off via the admin cp and change the announcement from acp.

The Dynamic Announcements hack is a bit more than I require so I wrote my own simple global announcement hack.

To install import the xml file as a product in the Plugin Manager.

Modify template FORUMHOME add

$simple_global_announcement

where You want the announcement to be placed. I have placed it after $navbar and before <!-- main --> like this

Code:
<body>
$header
$navbar
$simple_global_announcement

<!-- main -->

To enable the announcement goto vBulletin options and open settings for "Global annoucement". Here You can enable/disable the announcement and enter the text to display.


Change history.

1.1.0 Made the announcement box collapsable


Future.
I am hoping a new template hook will be added in FORUMHOME just after $navbar so future template edits won't be required to install this.

ok, stupid question, but where can I go to actually change the template for the announcement itself (I want to put graphics around it so it matches my forum)

Question for those that have this installed. Would you still like to use this once 3.7.0 is released ?

3.7.0 has the new highly customizeable Notices so there might not even be a point in having this mod around any longer.

ok - I must be blind...because I'm not able to find the Global Announcement area where I can set this to active.

The only place where I see this is under the adminCP: Announcements -> Announcement Manager -> Global Announcements -> New

But it doesn't show up on our forum.

Apparently I'm overlooking something here.

Any help?
