Can someone please tell me how i would go about adding a bar across the very top of the forum, i need it to be on each page so i guess id put it in the header template but i dont know the code. Here is a picture:



Any help you could give would be much appreciated!

You are right, it's the header template, below:

<a name="top"></a>

add:

<div align="center">
    <table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="100%" align="center" style="border-top-width:1px">
    <tr align="center">
            <td class="vbmenu_control">
                bar at top
            </td>
    </tr>
    </table>
</div>

Customize it to your liking.

Thank you for your help Floris. One thing i didnt think of is that i actually want the area below the bar to be white, not the default gray. I made up a quick pic in paint to show what i mean:



Can you (or anyone that knows) please tell me how i can adjust my default style in this way?

Simple. (With Floris's table code)

<!-- logo -->
<a name="top"></a>
<div align="center">
    <table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="100%" align="center" style="border-top-width:1px">
    <tr align="center">
            <td class="vbmenu_control">
                bar at top
            </td>
    </tr>
    </table>
</div>
<table border="0" width="$stylevar[outertablewidth]" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" align="center">
<tr>
 <td align="$stylevar[left]" class=page><a href="$vboptions[forumhome].php$session[sessionurl_q]"><img src="$stylevar[titleimage]" border="0" alt="$vboptions[bbtitle]" /></a></td>
</tr>
</table>
<!-- /logo -->
<!-- content table -->
$spacer_open
$_phpinclude_output

Should work, if not, I have a few other ideas.

Perfect thank you

[Floris]

By the way, nice idea. I can't wait to get a sneak preview or a final screenshot from when it's ready.
