[AJAX] News/Announcements · **Released**: 04-08-2007

With this add-on you can quickly add new or announcements on your forum's index, forum display, or thread display. Each forum and thread can have their own unique message.

In the vBulletin options you can choose which user's can edit the text by entering their user ID into the box.
You can choose whether or not moderators can edit the message in the forums they moderate.
You can choose if you want the news/announcements to display on forum home, forum display, or thread display.

You can use bbcode and HTML but only if HTML tags have bbocde to convert to.
For example if you type <b></b> it'll convert to [b][/b].

Here are some screensohts

Ah I see. It's a little inconvenient but it's better than what I had originally thought.
Can anybody else confirm the DB error? I'm running on 3.6.5 with some modified templates and a bunch of other hacks.

I have fixed the database error. I will upload the upgrade after I upload the upgrade for "Usergroup Messages".

I have fixed the database error when marking threads as read.

Sweet BB Code, but why do we still need to enter the <br /> tag, if BB code is enabled?

What about if they moderate a certain forum, but i don't want them to have permission with the news/announcements feature?

Do you mean if a user can moderate two forums but you only want them to have permission to use the news/announcement feature on one forum and not the other?
If so it isn't possible with this version.

In your ACP go to Styles & Templates --> Style Manager Click on the button that looks like this [<< >>].
Here you will find "headerinclude" and "navbar". navbar can be found in "Navigation / Breadcrumb Templates"

In your install.txt file and now you are writing "headerinclude" instead of "headinclude".
Thats why i didn't find it in the search.
