Just install this MOD, it almost did what I need it to do. 

It wrapped my header and footer arond the whole forum except 1 part, can someone tell me how to get the part that was left out in the wrapper like the rest of the forum

You can see what I'm talking about at the link above.  I need that section to also be in the layout of the site.

UPDATE:  Currently upgrading to 2.0 RC 4, so this issue doesn't matter anymore.  Once I get my upgrade finished I may still need some help.

Download page says this mod is compatible with 2.0 rc4.
When I install I'm getting a "this package is corrupt or non compatible with this version of SMF"...message.

Attempting through package manager.
No other packages installed.

You downloaded it directly from the modsite recently?

 :-[ Nope.
The version hadn't changed so I assumed the file hadn't either. I had the file saved from a prior download.

Totally my fault, here. I downloaded again and all is well.

But while I have your attention, I would like very much to extend my gratitude towards you and your loyalty to this project.
You had the package updated before I was even notified there was an updated version of SMF available.
And then you reply to my post here in just a simple few hours.
Absolutely outstanding ;) And thank you very much. I'm pretty sure I speak for several when I say that.

I appreciate your time, seriously, and I apologize for wasting it on something that turned out to be a greenhorn oversight. ::)

Thanks for your support I really appreciate it. I only change the version number if do bug fixes,feature additions etc otherwise gets confusing for people using other versions of SMF.

Will an external .css work with the header and footer?  I have a site that these forums that I have built is related to.  One option might be to use modified headers and footers from that site. 

Thanks!

 Using Global headers and footers modification for google adss and analytics etc. Works great. But now, as a novice uesr I want to execute

"www.xxxxx.org/index.php?action=recent"

  I tried <a href="?action=recent">View Recent Posts</a> but this only works if member clicks on it. I need the result to be shown ( at least 10 of them)

in order to see the recent posts on top of the site,  rather then at the bottom.
  Can you pls shed some light on this, how to code it  in global header ?
Thanks in advance

   ---> After further research, it is clear that php not supported. Then the question is: if I copy the php code from /source directory and convert it to htmlt ( I dont know how,will search) . Is it possible to see the recent posts on top of the forum by global headers and footers modification ? Also which php code that types the recent posts to the edn of the forum ? recent.php ?
Please reply.

The mod only supports html code and not php so it will not do what you are asking.

Thanks for your immediate response. I partly managed  by coding something like :
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
<html>
<body>
<p>
----> :
<a href="http://www.???.org/index.php?action=unread">
<img src="http://www.???.org/photos/unread.jpg" alt="Unread" />
</a>
</p>
</body>
</html>
------------------------------------------------------------------------

  But this code puts an icon on top of the forum, if clicked executes unread action.  What I want is : if there is new post,  then it should be immediately displayed
on top of the forum, without clicking, when the page is refreshed.
  I know,  this is not exactly the global headers and footers modificiation issue, but any help will be highly appreciated.

I am experiencing the same thing. I am testing/developing a site with default SMF forum 1.1.12 (no template changes).

On Simple Portal 2.3.3. the header/footer mod is appearing towards the bottom of the page and floating to the right, just above the last bottom block (which is in the center).

On SMF, it's appearing in the space between the nagivation button strip and the forum categories listing. Is this how it's supposed to work? I was thinking it would wrap around the entire page, not appear in the middle below the SMF default header which holds the navigation strip..?

vbgamer45

Yes it appears before the menu and before the ending board footer.

Thanks for the quick reply.  Just so ppl know, on 1.1.12 it's appearing *after* the menu (not before)... and breaks on Simple Portal (appears above the first bottom block).

I use 2.0 RC4 and I installed this MOD successfully but I can't find it in the admin panel

Hi!

If anyone saw it, I removed my previous post since I think that I have answered many of my own questions through experimentation.  I also may have made a nicer forum in one night than the one that I worked on for a month.  Maybe I learned something!  :)

I do have a couple of questions though:

1 - I assume that the header is placed above the actual forum section and not above the entire page.  This placement seems a little odd but it sort of works with the really nice SkinMod (http://www.skinmod.EU) VB4 'look alike' theme.  Is that correct?  Here is the link to my experimental forum - http://www.VintageRadio.com/vrforum.

2 - I wasn't sure if using .css style links was OK or not.  I first tried to link the external (VintageRadio.com) .css but that caused some minor problems with the SMF default theme and lots of problems on the admin pages.  I pared the .css down to what was absolutely needed and nested it in <style> tags with the header code.  That seems to work for both header and footer.  The only problem that I have seen is sort of odd.  The 'Global Headers and Footers' icon is missing.  I don't know if that is related to my code or if it is an external problem.  Save for the question above this seems to be working nicely with the VB4 theme.

Thanks for the nice mod!  If there is a way to put the header at the very top, that would be an interesting option (assuming that how my installation is working is correct!

installs but there is no option for it in the configuration tab.  using default theme

I downloaded this for SMF 2.0 RC5 and manually edited the php files. Now, it seems there is many bugs:

http://chaotic-rs.com/forum/index.php?action=helpadmin;help=pollMode

Pages centered:

http://chaotic-rs.com/forum/index.php?topic=42.0

Users online centered:

http://chaotic-rs.com/forum/index.php

Is there a fix for this?

I was working installing the Global Header and Footers mod and all was going well.  I pasted a script for a countdown clock to be displayed above the forum and when I hit saved it made the forums disappear.  The problem is it doesnt allow me to see anything in the admin control panel.  Any thoughts or ideas why the forums would be hidden?  All you see is the banner, footer.  I cant get back to the area to correct the problem because its missing.

Also if you look at my admin control panel in the attachment below everything is missing.

hcfwesker

Goto you cPanel, legacy file manager, or whichever you prefer, and in the root folder, find ...

smffooter.txt or /smfheader.txt   (whichever one you put that clock code in, and remove it, then save.

Should brinbg the forum back to where it was.  Anytime something fails, or you're going to be editing the headers/footers, I'd recommend having these ready in your cPanel.
