Apologies in advance cause I know i've read this question elsewhere but now i can't seem to find it....

How do I have different tempaltes for each forum? I think it's _not_ possible?

If not, can I pass a variable into the header of footer, say the name of the forum, with spaces removed, to an ad tag?

thanks!

It is possible. When you make a new forum (or modify one) you'll see a list of options allowing you to choose custom templates :)

thanks...i knew it was there.

Now the other questions...it's very ez to pass a forum id to an ad tag to track ad traffic by area. question is is there a way to pass the forum name like this:

My Forum Name

pass this: My_Forum_Name or MyForumName

??

thanks,

The $forumtitle is passed to the templates in the forum. You could use javascript to remove spaces, and then use that in the ad code.
