XF 2.2 If I need help to customize my forum?

[Cashisking]

If I need help to customize my forum? do I ask over here or is there some other place I need to go ?
I have had loads of help from people over on Fiverr for my company word press sites - but this could be different.
I am just curious !!!

This is the place to go.

Okay- lets start with 2 questions.

For the node color, you can check this guide:

[cXF] Coloured Node Categories

Check Free and Premium cXF DIY Customizations on customizexf.com Add code to your extra.less template: /* Coloured Node Categories */ .block.block--category.block--categoryX .block-header { background: #009ACF; color: #ffffff; }...

xenforo.com

For the banner between the nodes, you'll need to edit node_list_category template (or better create a template modification).

In that template FIND:

                    arg-depth="{{ $depth + 1 }}" />
            </div>
        </div>
    </div>

ADD BELOW:

    <xf:if is="{$node.node_id} == X ">
        - your code -
    </xf:if>

Where X is your node ID number.

Thank you Bassman - I will give it a try - when you say X is my node ID Number - what do you mean ?

You see this digit at the end of this forum link, that is your node id

 

[Cashisking]

So, if I wanted this banner added - I would write this ?

<xf:if is="{$node.node_id} == X ">
http://www.rangers4us.com/image/gerstv2.png
</xf:if>

 

[BassMan]

No, something like that:

<xf:if is="{$node.node_id} == X ">
    <img src="http://www.rangers4us.com/image/gerstv2.png" alt="Rangers TV" width="970" height="90">
</xf:if>

 

[Cashisking]

Thank you - but can not find this code

 

[BassMan]

Check rows 13 to 16.

 

[Cashisking]

Found it ! but some thing went wrong

 

[BassMan]

Change X with your node id.

 

[Cashisking]

Change X with your node id.

Where can I find my node id ?

Found it and changed it - but no banner showing up - must have done some thing wrong

<xf:if is="{$node.node_id} == 1522 ">
<img src="http://www.rangers4us.com/image/gerstv2.png" alt="Rangers TV" width="970" height="90">
</xf:if>

 

[BassMan]

No, change your node id to 1.

 

[Paul B]

The node ID is not 1522, it's 7, or 1 for the category.

I think he wants to add the banner between the category nodes.

 

[Cashisking]

Yes, because you have manually edited it.
