After installing this hack, you will be able to post a unique introduction for each forum. Sub-forums will show their parent's introduction, unless they have one of their own. This feature is available in ezBoard, so us ezBoard refugees are already familiar with it.

This hack does not add any additional SQL queries to your forum! it was inspired by PPN's hack, which was based on FireFly's code.

Screenshot (thanks to ptbyjason).

HAs anyone figured out how to get the title of the "Forum Introduction" to read the same as the forum it's posted in?

Yes, Boofoo gave me the correct code. This is where I put it and it works great!

In the forumdisplay_introduction template look for:

<td bgcolor="{tableheadbgcolor }". In that block of code, replace <b>Forum Introduction</b> with: <b>$foruminfo[title]</b>

That's all I did, works like it's supposed to. My code block looks like this now. Make sure you remove the spaces before the }.

<td bgcolor="{tableheadbgcolor }" align="center"><largefont><font color="{tableheadtextcolor }"><b>$foruminfo[title] </b></font></largefont></td>
</tr>

cessna140,

That's Boofo, not Boofoo (only the wife gets to call me that and only when she's mad).
