Board description hover image and in the board

[buffyboards]

Forum URL: buffy.boards.net

I don't know if it's possible but I'd love to have two board descriptions: an image and a text that should appear hovering on the image and also inside the board (I know that there is a plugin for the hovering text but it doesn't work with the theme I installed). I made some pics to better explain what I'm meaning.

Now it's like this, just an image (the text is really part of the image)




I'd like that hovering on the image this disappears showing the textual description:



and then that same textual descriptions is shown under the board title in the board list:




I hope I'm not asking too much!

You can do this using the board description image plugin: Here.

Thank you, I already tried that but it doesn't work with the theme I installed. I found another way though, using the tooltip plugin, now I just need to see how to have the textual description in each board list

I'll take a look at it.

buffyboards: Okay I figured out a solution that works with your template!

Download this plugin: support.proboards.com/thread/482430

Under the custom board description path tab in the plugin, just put tr in.



Then for the board you want it on, just go to categories & boards and put in your description as such:

[presto][img]IMAGE URL HERE[/img]CONTENT YOU WANT TO APPEAR ON HOVER[/presto]


You'll have to resize things yourself but this will give you the hover effect you want.

Hi Tiffy-Bean could you help me customize the plugin? I don't understand how to set the padding of the images (I'd like them to be slightly more on the right) and is it possible to make the background of the text transparent?

Unfortunately you're going to have to ask the plugin developer about the transparency.  That is a preset in the plugin development itself, and as I did not design the presto box, I don't have all the necessary info to be able to change the transparency of it.  

As for the padding, I'll take a look at it.  Go to where I linked you to the plugin and ask there about the transparency.
