[Tip&Trick]Message for your guests - babjusi - 11-29-2009 05:37 PM

This modification will allow you to show a message to your guests, which will be displayed at the top of the forum. Hopefully this will encourage them to register.

To have an idea how the mod looks like in action, please check the screenshots attached at the end of this topic Smile

First of all you must have the PHP in Templates and Template Conditionals plug in installed:

http://community.mybboard.net/thread-31860.html

After you install that plug in, go to the Acp of your forum-Templates & Style-Templates-Default Templates-Header Templates-header.

Replace the whole code in there with the following:

Code:[Highlight]
<if $GLOBALS['mybb']->user['usergroup'] == 1 then>
<table border="0" cellspacing="{$theme['borderwidth']}" cellpadding="{$theme['tablespace']}" class="tborder">
<thead>
<tr>
<td class="thead">
<div style="margin:0 auto;text-align:center"><strong>Welcome to our community Guest!</strong></div>
</td>
</tr>
</thead>
<tr>
        <td class="trow1"align="center">
<strong>Please consider <a href="member.php?action=register">Registering</a> to gain full access!Registration is free and it only takes a few moments to complete<br />
Already a member? <a href="member.php?action=login">Login then</a></strong></td>
</tr>
</table>
</if>    

<div id="container">
        <a name="top" id="top"></a>
        <div id="header">
            <div class="logo"><a href="{$mybb->settings['bburl']}/index.php"><img src="{$theme['logo']}" alt="{$mybb->settings['bbname']}" title="{$mybb->settings['bbname']}" /></a></div>
            <div class="menu">
                <ul>
                    <li><a href="{$mybb->settings['bburl']}/search.php"><img src="{$mybb->settings['bburl']}/{$theme['imgdir']}/toplinks/search.gif" alt="" title="" />{$lang->toplinks_search}</a></li>
                    <li><a href="{$mybb->settings['bburl']}/memberlist.php"><img src="{$mybb->settings['bburl']}/{$theme['imgdir']}/toplinks/memberlist.gif" alt="" title="" />{$lang->toplinks_memberlist}</a></li>
                    <li><a href="{$mybb->settings['bburl']}/calendar.php"><img src="{$mybb->settings['bburl']}/{$theme['imgdir']}/toplinks/calendar.gif" alt="" title="" />{$lang->toplinks_calendar}</a></li>
                    <li><a href="{$mybb->settings['bburl']}/misc.php?action=help"><img src="{$mybb->settings['bburl']}/{$theme['imgdir']}/toplinks/help.gif" alt="" title="" />{$lang->toplinks_help}</a></li>
                </ul>
            </div>
            <hr class="hidden" />
            <div id="panel">
                {$welcomeblock}
            </div>
        </div>
        <hr class="hidden" />
        <br class="clear" />
        <div id="content">
            {$pm_notice}
            {$bannedwarning}
            {$bbclosedwarning}
            {$unreadreports}
            <navigation>
            <br />

Or you can display it under the menu bar:

Code:[Highlight]
<div id="container">
        <a name="top" id="top"></a>
        <div id="header">
            <div class="logo"><a href="{$mybb->settings['bburl']}/index.php"><img src="{$theme['logo']}" alt="{$mybb->settings['bbname']}" title="{$mybb->settings['bbname']}" /></a></div>
            <div class="menu">
                <ul>
                    <li><a href="{$mybb->settings['bburl']}/search.php"><img src="{$mybb->settings['bburl']}/{$theme['imgdir']}/toplinks/search.gif" alt="" title="" />{$lang->toplinks_search}</a></li>
                    <li><a href="{$mybb->settings['bburl']}/memberlist.php"><img src="{$mybb->settings['bburl']}/{$theme['imgdir']}/toplinks/memberlist.gif" alt="" title="" />{$lang->toplinks_memberlist}</a></li>
                    <li><a href="{$mybb->settings['bburl']}/calendar.php"><img src="{$mybb->settings['bburl']}/{$theme['imgdir']}/toplinks/calendar.gif" alt="" title="" />{$lang->toplinks_calendar}</a></li>
                    <li><a href="{$mybb->settings['bburl']}/misc.php?action=help"><img src="{$mybb->settings['bburl']}/{$theme['imgdir']}/toplinks/help.gif" alt="" title="" />{$lang->toplinks_help}</a></li>
                </ul>
            </div>
            <hr class="hidden" />
            <div id="panel">
                {$welcomeblock}
            </div>
<br /><br /><if $GLOBALS['mybb']->user['usergroup'] == 1 then>
<table border="0" cellspacing="{$theme['borderwidth']}" cellpadding="{$theme['tablespace']}" class="tborder">
<thead>
<tr>
<td class="thead">
<div style="margin:0 auto;text-align:center"><strong>Welcome to our community Guest!</strong></div>
</td>
</tr>
</thead>
<tr>
        <td class="trow1"align="center">
<strong>Please consider <a href="member.php?action=register">Registering</a> to gain full access!Registration is free and it only takes a few moments to complete<br />
