Simple global announcement
Version: 1.1.0, by tommykjensen tommykjensen is offline

Uses Plugins Template Edits
 
No support by the author.

Inspired by the Welcome headers hack I wanted to add a simple global announcement that I could turn on and off via the admin cp and change the announcement from acp.

The Dynamic Announcements hack is a bit more than I require so I wrote my own simple global announcement hack.

To install import the xml file as a product in the Plugin Manager.

Modify template FORUMHOME add

$simple_global_announcement

where You want the announcement to be placed. I have placed it after $navbar and before <!-- main --> like this

Code:
<body>
$header
$navbar
$simple_global_announcement

<!-- main -->

To enable the announcement goto vBulletin options and open settings for "Global annoucement". Here You can enable/disable the announcement and enter the text to display.


Change history.

1.1.0 Made the announcement box collapsable


Future.
I am hoping a new template hook will be added in FORUMHOME just after $navbar so future template edits won't be required to install this.

EDIT: Having some problems, it's not showing up. I did the template modification and turned it online via the admincp and included a message. Any ideas?

Looks pretty cool, however will this interfere with my Geek Banner System?

Hmm, strange. You loaded the xml file via plugin manager, edited the template FORUMHOME? Can You post a few lines from that template around where You made the change?

If You goto the settings are the global announcement then still enabled and the text still there?

I don't know that banner system so I don't know if it will interfere.
