[CMS] Editing CMS and Forums headers to put up a permanent message?

[mdelaflor]

Hello,

How do I go about putting up a permanent message in the CMS and Forums? I want to put a message that is not bumped by new posts or articles. In other forum/CMS sofware that usually involves editing some template usually a header....

Can anyone help?

For the forums, you could add a new announcement with no expiration. Announcements -> Announcement Manager. I'm not sure how else you could go about this without modifying a template and/or getting an addon.

With CMS you would set the section order to "manual, then date" and assign order 1 to the article you wanted to keep at the top. You'd have to do this in any section where you wanted to pin an order to the top.
