Hello,

I have the CZ Scrolling Forums v2 and I was wondering how I go about adding the Rank, Staff and other things to it. I have another block like this one with the rank on it but I would rather use the one I have and can't figure out how to put it in. Plus it says not to modify it without premission. I just want to add Rank and Staff to the bottom like on this site. By chance is there other mods I have to have or is it just script. Thank you in advance.

i use this block on my site and haven't modified it but if you wanted to add Ranks and staff

Make a backup b4 trying this.

Open the block file
Find

define("_BBFORUM_TOTTOPICS","Topics ");
define("_BBFORUM_TOTPOSTS","Posts ");
define("_BBFORUM_TOTVIEWS","Views ");
define("_BBFORUM_TOTREPLIES","Replies ");
define("_BBFORUM_TOTMEMBERS","Members");
define("_BBFORUM_FORUM","Forums");
define("_BBFORUM_SEARCH","Search");

After add:

define("_BBFORUM_RANKS","Ranks");
define("_BBFORUM_STAFF","Staff");

Find:

</table>";
?>

before add

<tr>
<td align=\"center\" class=\"row1\" width=\"50%\"><a href=\"Link here\">"._BBFORUM_RANKS."</a></td>
<td align=\"center\" class=\"row1\" width=\"50%\"><a href=\"Link_here\">"._BBFORUM_STAFF."</a></td>
</tr>

That's it. Save the file and upload it to your server.

Thank you.. I will Try that out.. Do I have to have the Staff Mod to use the staff. Ok I got it to work but the Rank and Staff are at the top. How do I get it down under the Forum and Search.

where did you insert it? paste the code. you would need to have something to link to not necessarily a module.

I added it exactly where you told me to..But the Rank and Staff are at the top. You can view and see what I mean here [ Register or login to view links on this board.] . It is on the left, you will have to scroll down.

Thank you for the help.

Open the block file and replace the whole code with
