Is there a way to insert an image in the forum description when creating a forum?
Example: You have the following . . .
Category - Books and reading
Forum - Book Nook
And just below that you place the description of the forum.
Is there a way you could insert an image in the description?

carefree,
you can use [noparse] tags here so you don't need to use spaces etc when showing tags  |

You'd simply insert the [img] tags around the photo url where you want the photo to appear. I'd recommend putting the photo either at the very end (with a carriage return/line feed preceding it) or at the very beginning (with a carriage return/line feed following it).
Something like this: [img]blahblahblah.url[ /img][ br]description
or
description[ br][img]blahblahblah.url[ /img]
Eliminate the spaces in the closing tags.
This has got to be one of my most favorite finds!
I get to be creative with the images I use and members love the new look! :)
Just had to come back and thank you guys!
God bless!!
SOLVED!!

First of all, thank you so much!
Using the link you shared, I found Shaggy's reply to a post here: Controlling how Web Links open In the 4th post down, Shaggy suggested to use the code (I'll paste just below.) in default.asp to make links on the default page open in the same open. Here's what he suggested:
Here's what you need, so, where domain.tld is your domain:
if ForumFType = 0 then
Response.Write "forum.asp?FORUM_ID=" & ForumID
else
Response.Write ForumURL
if instr(ForumURL,"http://www.domain.tld/")=0 then response.write """ target=""_blank"
end if
I tried that but it would not work for me (and caused some strange behavior, too).
And then using the link you shared again, I used Shaggy's file I found here:
ReplaceURLs Function in my inc_function_common.asp file. It was supposed to make all of the links open in a new window regardless of what page you were on. It works perfect on default.asp but not anywhere else. And I know that's exactly what I wanted originally, but now I really wish this would have worked. Does anyone have any idea what might help this to work? If not, I'll just be happy with this! :)

OH MY GOODNESS!! Oh my goodness how neat!! :)
You guys are wonderful!!
Okay; another question. I know how to make the image a link, but how do I make it open in the same window. I can do this using HTML but don't have a clue with the bbcodes.
But even if I can't make it open in the same window, I will still be happy with this!!

Try the [img=left][/img=left] or [img=right][/img=right] tags to float the image, you may like that. |
