Hey there!

I'm a little uncertain of where to put some coding on the new v.5 admin panels. I want to put something on the site that I would like to be global but NOT on the main page.

On v.4 I've used this code -

<script>if(pb_action=="home")document.write('<xmp style="display:none;"\>');</script>

STUFF IN HERE

[div]<script>document.write('<xmp\>');</script>[/div]</xmp>

around anything I wanted to not appear on the main page. However, unlike it's counterpart code that makes my Main h/f info appear ONLY on the main page, this one is not working.

Could someone either tell me how to work the above code on the new v.5 or tell me where I can post the code to get it to have the same effect.

I ask where because there are a lot of different possibilities in the new one - headers and footers under plug ins, headers and footers in general etc etc. so I don't know whether or not there's one particular location that would already do what the code above does, if you see what I mean.

I'm going to stop talking now because I feel like I'm confusing myself, let alone anyone else lol.

Try this instead..

<script>if(proboards.data.route == "home")document.write('<xmp style="display:none;"\>');</script>

STUFF IN HERE

[div]<script>document.write('<xmp\>');</script>[/div]</xmp>

Just curious, why wouldn't you check for proboards.data.route == "home"? Checking for "Home |" in document.title would assume that people haven't changed the divider in the forum wrapper template—granted, I don't think that would be too many people, but still.

The main reason being, that I never knew about proboards.data.route..

I'll edit it right now. Thank you.

[JD]

Thanks guys but that didn't work. I've left the code in so you can see what it's done.

[Todge]

It seems 'proboards.data.route' is not working.

Here's what I use..


<div id="mainpage" style="display: none;">

Put your content here

</div>
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
if(document.title.match(/Home \|/)){
document.getElementById('mainpage').style.display = '';}
// -->
</script>
See if that will work for you.

Hmmm nope. I still got nothing. Should the javascript of that code be in the JS plugin component? Is it okay for it to be in the headers/footers? Have I put it in the wrong place?

[JD]

bump?

Try this.

<script>if(proboards.data('route').name == "home")document.write('<xmp style="display:none;"\>');</script>

STUFF IN HERE

<script>document.write('<xmp\>');</script></xmp>

It was the way you had it. it should be 

proboards.data('route').name

[JD]

Perfect! Thank you so so much shorty

Now I've just got to work everything else out. :S Lol.

[Shorty]
