doc_background linkable?

[Kuscheltod]

Dear all,

we would like to implement some Branding-campaigns into our forum and for this the backgrond-image have to be clickable by link.

Can you give me a short hint where I have to add the <a> tag in the templates so the background image will be linked properly?

Thansk in advance

Kind regards

Dear all,

I need to push this topic, because of no solution, yet.

If someone have an idea, your welcome

Kind regards

Someone else asked this same question only they supplied a link to a site that did what they wanted. I found the code in the page source for the page and pasted it into the thread for the person to use on their site. Either find that thread or post a link to the site that does this and I'll see what they did and post it.

Hey Lynne,

for example http://playmassive.de they make brandings, but they don't use vbulletin.

We rebuild what they did, but it doesn't worked properly in vBulletin 4.x.x

Kind regards

They have this in the page source:

<div id="brand">
<a target="_blank" class="branding a2010-09-bbo" href="link.php" linkindex="200">Bounty Bay Online</a><div style="position: absolute; left: 0px; top: 0px; visibility: hidden;" id="beacon_22b633bf90"><img width="0" height="0" style="width: 0px; height: 0px;" alt="" src="http://a.playcentral.de/www/delivery/lg.php?bannerid=224&amp;campaignid=64&amp;zoneid=66&amp;loc=1&amp;referer=http%3A%2F%2Fplaymassive.de%2F&amp;cb=22b633bf90"></div>

</div>

And this in the CSS:

#brand a.a2010-09-bbo {background-image:url("http://static.playmassive.de/brandings/2010/2010-09-bounty-bay-online.jpg");}#brand a.branding {background:none no-repeat scroll center top transparent;display:block;height:1050px;text-indent:-9999px;width:100%;}

so, you'll want something similar to that.

Hey,

yeah, the prob is, we use a width for body (otherwise we have to recode with divs etc.)

if I add this code 1:1 i have an error: http://test.forum.gratis-mmorpg.com/forum.php check it out

Kind regards

You didn't add all the CSS. And, I forgot to post this CSS also:

div#brand {height:1050px;left:0;margin:0 auto;position:absolute;text-align:center;top:30px;width:100%;z-index:0;}

And, your div needs to go after your content. You may need to change the positioning (absolute) and the z-index also.

You really need to get something like firebug and compare your site and the example site and make sure you are doing the same thing.

Hey Lynne,

added the code, too

Now I have the problem that the whole website is linked by the link, if I change the z-index from 0 to -1 can't click anymore (no matter where I am)

Tried also to change the body z-index, which doesn't work at all.

And, I work with Firebug

Also I didn't see the background-image, I think it's because of the hidden attribute (sry, I'm no web-dev ^^).

But I think the more major issue is the "clickable" function, it's working for the whole div OR not, but I need the content area from body clickable.

Do you have any solution for this?

[Lynne]

I think you just need to play with it and compare the two site. They also have some javascript on there - try a search in the page source and see if any is related to this.
