Miscellaneous Hacks - Rules when you open a new thread

Many people have asked how to insert rules that can be displayed when the member starts a new thread.

In style manager, open the editor templates -> editor_toolbar_on. At the very top of the file, above the line $vBeditTemplate[clientscript], insert this code:

<if condition="THIS_SCRIPT == 'newthread'">
<if condition="$show['member']">
<strong>Hello $bbuserinfo[username]! We ask that you follow these simple rules:</strong><br />
<ul>
<li>First rules. </li>
<li>Second rules. </li>
<li>Third rules. </li>
</ul>
</if>
</if>

For add new rules add a new line with the code

<li>Rules</li>

NB: Obviously, the text "Message:" always appear above the rules. To delete or modify the search for phrases.

How would i make it show only for a certain forum?

[cionfs]

You can use before code

<if condition="in_array($forum['forumid'], array(X,X,X,X))">

and after code

</if>

Change X with your forum's ID.
