No support by the author.

Introduction:

This hack will allow the admin to edit an option in the Admin Control Panel and it'll update announcements throughout the whole forum. Now, the hack doesn't read from a specific forum and it doesn't have any "forum integration" with news or anything. It's all manual.

Installation:
  1. Download & Install the attached .xml file.
  2. Place the following code at the bottom of your "navbar" template:
    HTML Code:
    $global_announcements<br />
  3. Modify Options (ACP -> vBulletin Options -> Global Announcement Settings)

Features:
  • Shows on every page that includes the navbar.
  • On/Off Switch
  • You can modify the title (Announcements is default)
  • Add as much news as you'd like (parses HTML! News MUST use HTML!)
  • Collapsable
  • Signal New/Old news by a graphic.

Support:

Post here to gain support.

Screenshots:

See Attached.

Picture 2: Default Values w/ "New" announcement signifier.
Picture 3: Default Values w/ "Old" announcement signifier.
Picture 4: Non-Default Values w/ "New" announcement signifier.
Picture 5: Admin Control Panel vB Options Screen w/ Default Values

Note:

This hack was in no way based off of this hack. I actually discovered the plugin AFTER the posting. This is all my work.

The .xml should be a product... Than edit your settings, and add the code to your navbar template (breadcrumbs I think)
