[HowTo] Add a banner option image w/ Link or HTML paste to each forum V.1.6
Tested on vBulletin: 3.5.0 RC2

Zachariah - http://www.gzhq.net

This is a VB3.5 Ver of my previous hack:

*** Add a banner image to each forum (VB 3.0x)
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=61555

*** Info:
This modification will Add an image banner w/ link Or paste in your own HTML code option per forum. These files can be any image. (png, jpg, gif, ect). This will be located after the $navbar on FORMDISPLAY. This images can be located on the localhost or on a remote server.
--------------------------------------------------*/

Upload the "plug-in" and edit 2 template, It's a snap.

Bumping again... No one ?

working in vb 3.6.1

didn't originally because I forgot that the templates were reverted when i updated them due to the change... so fyi..since you've got to either revert or redo your styles when you upgrade you'll need to add the template additions again.

I wasted an hour wondering why this wasn't working.

cheers!

I have a question since I'm not very good at vB conditionals. Is there a way to add an "else" statement so if there isn't a banner entered for that forum that some other code would displayed?

I use phpAdsNew to serve random banners on most of my pages and would like that to display the banner if there is no banner for that forum.

Thanks!!!

Does anyone know how to add a banner when a user clicks "New Posts" (above the new posts list if there are some, or on the "sorry, no new posts" page if displayed)

Most people on our site do a "new posts" search vs. browsing around separate forums. This would be a key area to advertise.

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