New "Notices" look

[Chris]

OK I do not know about everyone else but the box that displays the Notices on 3.7 needed some changing. So I changed mine. Here it is if you want to use it.

1 template needs editing.

adminCP>>styles and template>>style manager>>edit templates(for your style)>>Navagation/Breadcrumb templates>>NAVBAR

Now find:



<if condition="$show['notices']">
<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center">
<tr>
<td class="thead">$vbphrase[notices]</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="alt1">$notices</td>
</tr>
</table>
<br />
</if>

Replace it with:



<if condition="$show['notices']">
<table style="border-bottom-style: solid ;
border-bottom-color: orange;
border-bottom-width: 2px; border-top-style: solid ;
border-top-color: orange;
border-top-width: 2px" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center">
<tr>
<td style="width:18; background-color:lightyellow"><img src="http://www.YOURSITE.com/forum/images/statusicon/wol_error.gif" alt="notice" height="16" width="16"></td><td style="width:100%; background-color:lightyellow"><font face="arial" size="2" color="#646464">$notices</font></td>
</tr>
</table>
<br />
</if>


Now all you have to do is change the URL to point to your own image. You can alter the colors or whatever you want. Have fun and enjoy. :D

You can see a DEMO of it here:

I added a TXT file with the instructions for you to download for later if you need.

This looks pretty cool.. When you post a new notice.. will it appear between the two yellow tram lines ?

[Peggy]

Yes, it will. You can see how mine looks here (http://www.themesbydesign.net/forums/index.php) .
