Logo Change For Each SectionThis little hack will create a different logo or image when you enter each section, by section i mean category for example on the support forum they would be the areas marked general support, or off topic
Ok here is HOWTODOIT
Please remember to use the Editor account before making any template changes, If you have not made an editor account yet please read HERE
Second you must have all ready a template you can edit.
If you have not done this please read HOWTODOIT
1. Goto admin panel --- 3. Styles --- Edit Templates/Logos -- the template you wish to edit (EG myff_howtodoit1)--- Submit
Now look at the top in the area marked Choose Forum template/javascript/css File to Edit use the drop down bar and find
overall_header.tpl
Now place this code where you wish the logo or image to appear.
| Code: | <!-- IF FORUM_ID==1 -->
<center><a href="{U_INDEX}"><img src="templates/myfs_testhtml4/images/logo1.gif" border="0" alt="HOWTODOIT"></a></center>
<!-- ELSEIF FORUM_ID == 2 -->
<center><a href="{U_INDEX}"><img src="templates/myfs_testhtml4/images/logo2.gif" border="0" alt="HOWTODOIT"></a></center>
<!-- ELSE -->
<center><a href="{U_INDEX}"><img src="templates/myfs_testhtml4/images/logo3.gif" border="0" alt="HOWTODOIT"></a></center>
<!-- ENDIF -->
|
Remember to change the path to be your path of your image
Hints
1. To find the number of the forum just enter the forum and look in the address bar you will see something like this
| Code: | | http://howtodoit.myfastforum.org/forum1.php |
Each section has its own number just enter each section and look for the number.
2. To add more than the two i have here, then you need to find this bit of the code
| Code: |
<!-- IF FORUM_ID==1 -->
<center><a href="{U_INDEX}"><img src="templates/myfs_testhtml4/images/logo1.gif" border="0" alt="HOWTODOIT"></a></center>
<!-- ELSEIF FORUM_ID == 2 -->
<center><a href="{U_INDEX}"><img src="templates/myfs_testhtml4/images/logo2.gif" border="0" alt="HOWTODOIT"></a></center> |
And add
| Code: | <!-- ELSEIF FORUM_ID == 3 -->
<center><a href="{U_INDEX}"><img src="templates/myfs_testhtml4/images/logo4.gif" border="0" alt="HOWTODOIT"></a></center> |
Each new one you add must be added before
| Code: | <!-- ELSE -->
<center><a href="{U_INDEX}"><img src="templates/myfs_testhtml4/images/logo3.gif" border="0" alt="HOWTODOIT"></a></center>
<!-- ENDIF --> |
So a final code may look like this
| Code: | <!-- IF FORUM_ID==1 -->
<center><a href="{U_INDEX}"><img src="templates/myfs_testhtml4/images/logo1.gif" border="0" alt="HOWTODOIT"></a></center>
<!-- ELSEIF FORUM_ID == 2 -->
<center><a href="{U_INDEX}"><img src="templates/myfs_testhtml4/images/logo2.gif" border="0" alt="HOWTODOIT"></a></center>
<!-- ELSEIF FORUM_ID == 3 -->
<center><a href="{U_INDEX}"><img src="templates/myfs_testhtml4/images/logo244.gif" border="0" alt="HOWTODOIT"></a></center>
<!-- ELSEIF FORUM_ID == 4 -->
<center><a href="{U_INDEX}"><img src="templates/myfs_testhtml4/images/logo23.gif" border="0" alt="HOWTODOIT"></a></center>
<!-- ELSEIF FORUM_ID == 5 -->
<center><a href="{U_INDEX}"><img src="templates/myfs_testhtml4/images/logo22.gif" border="0" alt="HOWTODOIT"></a></center>
<!-- ELSEIF FORUM_ID == 6 -->
<center><a href="{U_INDEX}"><img src="templates/myfs_testhtml4/images/logo21.gif" border="0" alt="HOWTODOIT"></a></center>
<!-- ELSE -->
<center><a href="{U_INDEX}"><img src="templates/myfs_testhtml4/images/logo3.gif" border="0" alt="HOWTODOIT"></a></center>
<!-- ENDIF -->
|
This part of the code is for the default logo they see when they enter a section that you have not assigned a logo or image to.
| Code: | <!-- ELSE -->
<center><a href="{U_INDEX}"><img src="templates/myfs_testhtml4/images/logo3.gif" border="0" alt="HOWTODOIT"></a></center>
<!-- ENDIF --> |
And Thats HOWTODOIT
