I'm using this mod & wanted to find out how can I make it so that the forum banner is centered instead of always on the left?

Rotekoppen wrote:well i finally got it right :wink: the problem whit finding the directory images/banners folder. was all in just to place thise in the my sql database

Code: Select all

#
#-----[ SQL ]------------------------------------------

INSERT INTO phpbb_config values ('banner_source', 'logo_phpBB.gif');
INSERT INTO phpbb_config values ('banner_path', 'images/banners');
INSERT INTO phpbb_config values ('banner_cols', '2');
INSERT INTO phpbb_config values ('banner_width', '200');
INSERT INTO phpbb_config values ('banner_height', '91'); 
when i did that it all fall in right place and worked just fine :wink:
this sql thing can be done one of two ways.
1: use the easy mod to install Change Forum Banner
2: go in to your webserver directly and make the update in your my sql database

I have the same problems you were having with this mod but I have done the SQL successfully and it did not fix this.

I also have one other problem, the changes made in the acp configuration do not save, so when I go check the banner path it is empty everytime. Any idea's why it won't save the setting for me?

For the SQL part: use your phpMyAdmin or install the mod via EasyMOD- it does that automaticly when you upload the files of the mod into %rootdir/admin/mod

For the COPY part: every copy line shows you where to upload the file, for example:
"copy admin/admin_banner.php to admin/admin_banner.php" :
copy admin/admin_banner.php file from the MOD to your admin folder(%rootdir/admin/)

I've got forum phpBB 2.0.22

Easy Mod failed with:

Critical Error

Function Trace: open_files[5]->modio_open[2]->modio_mkdirs[1]->ftp_mkdir_struct[3]

FTP ERROR: could not make directory [processed]
Current dir: [/web/luckypuppy.bravehost.com/FORUM/admin/mods/change forum banner]
MOD script line #120 ::

I uploaded The folder named "change forum banner". It contains the following folders:
admin
backups
images
processed
templates
The file Change Forum Banner.txt is also in there.

What went wrong? Where do I go from here?

Thanks in Advance

Easymod question go in here; http://area51.phpbb.com/phpBB/viewforum.php?f=15 IIRC he can not find the file.
But for further support about easymod you can seek for it on the easymod support forums :)
Otherwise you can try installed manually with this article Knowledge Base - How to Install MODs
Need phpBB installation, extenstions, Styles or integrate phpBB with you website?

I installed this some time ago and it works perfectly. But I wonder if it's possible to change the banner path to a lang_xxx file, so I can make different banners for different languages?

Hi Everyone

I currently run my board with a skin called Saphir. Will this mod work with all skins or only with default Sub Silver?
