Remove White Space?

[Timebomb007]

Forum URL: pondfriends.boards.net

How would I remove the white space between the banner ad and Register to See the Entire Forum box?

Delete the <xmp> tag that's on the page. Not sure how you added it, but check either your headers & footers or your layout templates. <xmp> is a super-old deprecated HTML tag with no real use any more.

<xmp> is from the code Wormopolis gave for hiding headers and footers from groups. support.proboards.com/post/5562674/thread

How should the code be then?

[Wormopolis]

well it has that one use.

and the alternative would be to edit whatever codes he has in the footers individually to not run on certain groups, but Im not volunteering to do all of that.

Edit: New code below.

Throw it in a plugin, add a group selector?

[Timebomb007]

I tried building a plugin, putting the code as a main header and saving it, but it messed up the forum, removing all of the boards and adding a bunch of code. I've never built a plugin before, obviously, so I'm clueless.

Please, can this specific header code be set for excluding a group from seeing it? Thanks.

there is already a falling items plugin in the library. you can edit the permissions of that plugin so certain groups dont have it run.

Right, I know, but the header code shows the images the way I want them instead of how the plugin shows them. Plus, it would be one less plugin to have.
