Simple mod to display information at top of page.

I need a simple mod that will display a message at the top of the header (left or right configurable) that leads to a thread/forum. I can do this easily editing the templates but it would be easier to have it configurable in the ACP.

Having a few pre-configured selectable templates would be good to have as well which could be selected from a list using a radio/checkbox.

e.g.
Preset Message 1 Preset Topic/Forum [x] (message to be displayed)
Preset Message 2 Preset Topic/Forum [ ]
Preset Message 3 Preset Topic/Forum [ ]
New Message Topic message leads to [ ]


The actual message would be something like...

<a href="LINK TO THREAD/FORUM" style="position:absolute;font-family:arial,sans-serif;background:#b21b1b;color:white;font-size:12px;top:0;right:0;"><strong>MESSAGE DISPLAYED</strong></a>

Which would look like......


I don't think it would be hard to actually do, but i've never done anything like this so I wouldn't know. This mod could benefit more people than just me.

Thanks

Thanks for the reply. I've seen this for 3.6.x already but think its a little too much. Something small would be alot better. That is the general idea, but just simpler.

I will be upgrading to 3.7.x soon. Just got to find the time to do some testing first.
