This was ALL ABOUT an Ads MOD : )

[Siirist]

Hello,

Well, I've done it now.
About a year ago I added some text to Roller Derby Forum and now I want to modify it, but I forgot how I did it.
I have included a screen shot and there is a link in my signature.

Thanks in advance,
Cloud

Are you trying to change the news?
Admin -> News and Newsletters

Are you trying to disable the news fader?
Admin -> Current Theme  Show news fader on board index:

[Siirist]

Hi Andrew,

Nope not the news or news fader (see screen shot or visit forum for accurate visual).

Thanks,
Cloud

I took a look at your forum and it looks like your header is a bit messed up - is that what you are trying to change?

Andrew,

Header was a challenge to say the least, but here is what I am trying to change:

You are the most important person to someone you know. Why? Because you can help, when no one else can or will.
Did you know that one out of every four women, and one in six men have been or are being abused? You can make a difference.
Simply share with them a place that offers: Compassion & understanding. Resources & solutions. Guidance but never advice.
Offer them A Sanctuary, at http://www.asanctury.net.

Thanks for your continued interest in helping,
Cloud

It look likes there is added something, manualy or by a MOD, in de template indexfile.

[NHWD]

it looks like it could have been installed on boardindex.template.php

[Siirist]

Sorry for late reply,
Thank you to both capady (how are ya?) and CLOWNER.
I didn't find it.
I attached it in case I missed it somehow.

Anyone else have any ideas?

well after looking at your site i found this:

Code Select Expand

<div id="ad_below_menu_1">
<div class="windowbg">
   <span class="topslice"></span>
   <div class="content centertext">
   <font size="2">
      You are the most important person to someone you know. Why? Because you can help, when no one else can or will.
<br />
<br />
      Did you know that one out of every four women, and one in six men have been or are being abused? You can make a difference.
<br />
<br />
Simply share with them a place that offers: Compassion & understanding. Resources & solutions. Guidance but never advice.
<br />
<br />
Offer them A Sanctuary,
      at <a href="http://www.asanctury.net" onclick="update_ad_clicks(1);">http://www.asanctury.net</a>.
   </font size>
   </div>
   <span class="botslice"></span>
</div>
</div>
so this might be done by a mod installed in the forum

UPDATE: Just so everyone knows what this is about, there is text at the top of the Roller Derby Forum that can't be removed (link is in my signature).

I was not able to trace the code in both files. Can you check whether you are running ad mod on your site.

Just what I thought, it's placed using Simple ads mod, I just made a ad using the mod and it's html tagging and css was exactly same as yours. If the mod is still installed, go to

Administration Center > Advertisements > Ad List

and seek for the content you want to remove.
