Board description (17th Feb 08 at 1:42am UTC)
Could the Board Description be a few more hundred characters, as this wont fit in the description, and its not my place to change it, as I did not think up the board nor the description, one of my members did.

Quote:

Board Name: Mansion "Devil May Cry Shop"

Board Description: The mansion that once was burned down by Sephiroth along with the whole town of Nibleheim is now under the "Care" of Dante. A otherworldly mercenary that specializes in the hunting and killing of demons and monsters a like. Dante has refurbished the inside and no more does it look abandoned. Out side of the mansion on top of the roof there is a big neon sign that reads Devil May Cry. A smaller sign can be found on the door that reads , the bathrooms up the stairs and to the right.


Thanks,
Darkmage

P.S. This is for my FFVII: {Forbidden}~{Reunion} forum.

You can use the Censored word list. Just go Admin >> Modify Censors >> Word to Replace [Whatever you want to replace] >> Replacement Word [Board Description].

{Smile} That's what I did anyway...

If the description was as long as that, then i'd consider using that in a table in the board header, and possibly a shortened/revised one for the main page.

Go to your admin panel, and go to the Modify Censors page.

In the "Word to replace" box, type "[mdmcsbd]" without the quotes. In the "Replacement Word" box, enter the board description.

Next, go to the sub-board that you would like to have the description for, and in the "Board Description" area, type in "[mdmcsbd]" without the quotes. This will automatically replace the little code you entered with the actual description. {Smile}

No, it can be whatever you want. {Smile}

But just keep in mind that it will replace it anywhere else on the forum as well.

You could be exceeding the censored word max.

Re: Board description (17th Feb 08 at 7:39pm UTC)
Code:
Select All
 
  1. <script type="text/javascript">
  2. <!--
  3. /* Switch-It by Cr0w */
  4. function switchIt(word,word2){
  5.     var f = document.getElementsByTagName("font");
  6.     for(i=0;i<f.length;i++){
  7.         font[i].innerHTML = td[i].innerHTML.replace(word,word2);
  8.     }
  9. }
  10.  
  11. switchIt("WORD TO REPLACE","REPLACEMENT");
  12. //-->
  13. </script>
 


The switchIt() line can be repeated to switch more things around. {Smile} Can be placed in any footer, but in this case, it seems like you'd want it in the Board Footers. {Smile}

Either global or board; depending on if you plan on making more boards with extremely long descriptions. {Tongue Out}
