Need help to change/modify the Advanced Guestbook 2.2.

Need help to change/modify the Advanced Guestbook 2.2.

I’m current running a guestbook written in Perl on a Vietnam Military Unit website. I’d like to modify the Advanced Guestbook so that some of the features of the old guestbook are there with the guestbook.

Some of the things are to make email a required field, changing the “Location” to read “Unit” and having a pull down menu for the different units the website is for that will display in lieu of the someone typing in the unit name.

Also some cosmetic changes to the add entry page (adding text), and also changing the logo on the index.php page (I know where the logo is kept, but the size of the .gif is specified somewhere?)

If someone could point me in the right direction I’d really appreciate it.

Thanks for your help

Yes, I had questions regarding this also. Which page would we modify?

Thanks,

Log into Admin Page for Guestbook. Then open Templates. Then open Header.php. Paste your html at top of script. This will show your Logo at top of page.

Example Header:

</HEAD>

<BODY>
<IMG SRC="http://next2net.com/images/logo.gif" WIDTH="288" HEIGHT="72" BORDER=0 ALT="">
</BODY>
</HTML>

You can visit my site to view my Guestbook. E-mail me if you have any questions.

Hope this was helpful,

After trying this, I notice that the pop up java image did not work. So adding the above html in the Heading.php causes conflicts. Hopefully someone can help with this.

To change the logo, you must edit the templates instead in file manager otherwise it won't work.

Go to templates

edit body.php find:

<td width="56%"><img src="img/logo.gif" width="225" height="42"></td>

change logo.gif

And you're done!

also if you have much bigger logo change the height and the width and you must also upload the logo in img files in order for it to work

Good luck!
