How Do I Move The Quick Style Chooser?

[8thos]

People are complaining about having to scroll down to the bottom of the page just to change it.

Untested but you could try adding the following code to the parse_templates hook:

vB_Template::preRegister('header',array('quickchooserbits' => $quickchooserbits));

And then use the following in the vBulletin header template wherever you want it:

<form action="{vb:raw vboptions.forumhome}.php" method="get" id="style_select" class="footer_select">
	<vb:if condition="$show['quickchooser']">
		<select name="styleid" onchange="switch_id(this, 'style')">
			<optgroup label="{vb:rawphrase quick_style_chooser}">
				{vb:raw quickchooserbits}
			</optgroup>
		</select>
	</vb:if>
</form>

Thank you! I will try to figure out your instructions the best way I can and let you know if they work or not.

Okay I tried it and it didn't work. Instead of bringing me to the drop-down menu of different styles, it just said the word 'Quick Style Chooser'.

I did it like this in 4.0.7:

<form action="forum.php" method="get" id="footer_select"><select style="background-color:#F2F6F8;" name="styleid" onchange="switch_id(this, 'style')"><optgroup>
<option value="" select="selected">Colors</option>
<option value="1">-- Original</option>
<option value="17">-- Gray</option>
<option value="15">-- Ice</option>
<option value="13">-- Pink</option>
<option value="19">-- Orange</option>
<option value="16">-- Green</option>
<option value="24">-- XGreen</option>
<option value="22">-- Red</option>
<option value="7">-- Dark Red</option>
<option value="36">-- Lime</option>
<option value="3">-- Dark Lime</option>
<option value="12">-- Blue</option>
<option value="2">-- Dark Blue</option>
<option value="21">-- Purple</option>
<option value="35">-- Dark Purple</option>
</optgroup>
</select>
</form>

Of course you have to use your own style names and style #s

This one worked!!! Thanks a lot man I appreciate it. Instead of putting it in the header, I put it in my navbar. I think it looks great now.
