FORUM SWF 1.0.1
This hack will allow you to specify a SWF file throught the adminCP and will then display that flash file instead of the forum title.
You may still enter a forum description that will be shown below the SWF file if you wish to do so.
Known Problems:
When creating a new forum the information you may enter into the box will not be saved. Instead you must create the new forum and then go back to edit and enter a value for it to save.
It works fine with already created forums.
Forum SWF Installation:
Import the product xml file throught the AdminCP
Do the two template edits in the txt file.
Install difficulty: 1 ( two template edits )
Install Time: about 1-2 minutes
This hack is in it's beta stage because I have absolutely no idea what I'm doing - if I did, I'd have coder status
This has been tested with 3.5.4 but should work for 3.6 also.
Any questions or comments - post em here and I'll laugh at you while eating a cookie.... hmmm shouldn't have said that
The idea here is to create your own swf file which links to a forum of your choice with a nice backgroud, description and what not - leaving you total customizability to the way your forums look. Or you just grab the nearest swf file and throw that in there, but where's the fun in that?
Short Demo can be seen http://probehosting.eu/testforum/index.php
