Header/Footer For Each Forum and Threads in that Forum · **Released**: 06-05-2004

This hack will allow you to add an extra, unique header and footer for each forum. The header and footer will show up on the forum home page and on each thread within that forum. You can use HTML, so you can put in rotating banner code or anything you like.

Can someone give me a hand with removing this from vB 3.5.0? I just upgraded to 3.5, and now I can't control these headers/footers anymore... So I need to remove them, and then upgrade to the new 3.5 mod..

*edit* Scratch that, you made it really easy with an upgrade patch... man do I feel dumb. Thanks very much!

Just found this hack and it looks like one I'd like to use (I'm running 3.5.4), so I downloaded it, but I don't understand these instructions:

Quote:

-----------------------STEP 1-----------------------------
Run Queries
NOTE: If you used a header/footer hack in VB2.x, you may already have these fields

<------------------------------------------->
ALTER TABLE `forum` ADD `forumheader` MEDIUMTEXT NOT NULL AFTER `description`;
ALTER TABLE `forum` ADD `forumfooter` MEDIUMTEXT NOT NULL AFTER `forumheader`;
<------------------------------------------->

I have no idea what this involves. Can anyone help?

In fact, I don't understand step 2, either. Where's admin/forum.php?

Thanks.

Does this work in 3.6.8 patch 2? Or is there a better or updated version of this hack?

SC351W · #**107** 04-12-2008, 06:11 PM

in my file admincp/forum.php
there is no
'$forum['description'] = convert_to_valid_html($forum['description']);'

I can only find something like this,
$forum['description'] = str_replace('&', '&', $forum['description']);

but it has two extra variables for the str_replace function.

Should i just change it to the str_replace function and format it the same?
i have vb 3.6.9.

thnx

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