Hack News v3.0

I finally decided to translate it in english (i'm french) :nervous:

This hack allows you to add on your index page a system of news viewable by all your members. You manage news via the admin CP, they are displayed on the forum in the shape of a "marquee" text.

You can insert HTML when you add a news in the admin CP and so, you can insert images, or effects on your text.

You can have the number of news you want, display will automatically adjust

You can totally customize the display too by editing the 3 new templates to make it more beautifull or adjust it with your visual theme !

Colors automatically adjust too with your themes but you can change it (put a background...) by modifying the templates

Have fun with it, i hope you will like

Dont put this variable in the header but in your template forumhome !

For Ninth Dimension Each news is defined a a mediumtext in the DB, you can increase it by longtext but i think it is enough so !
All news you add are displayed, there is no limit, to remove a news item, just remove it from the DB via the admin CP !
