Hi,
I know this isn't quite a hack, but hell I worked it out and I think it will be useful to other people!
You'll notice that when you are not logged in to vB you get a message about how to login or register and so on. I thought to myself this would be a great place to put a little info where people will automatically see it and not have to trawl around, so here's what I did!
In the templates section of your Admin interface expand the Forum Home Page Templates section and then click on forumhome [change original] you will then be presented with a text box, you need to scroll down to $unregwelcomemessage, you then need to place code like this:
After:
This is before the <smallfont>Registered Members: part, I realise this might be a bit abigious but this is my first hack and I don't want to break the hack rules! You can see it working here
Anyway I hope it helps someone!
