I can get it to move just below the header, but if I put it right above the new articles on the main page, it breaks.

If you have a Main Message displayed on your main page above your New Articles, I can get it to go right above that.

IF you want to know how to do this, just reply, since it isn't EXACTLY what you wanted.

Oh heck..here's how to do it.

Open the theme.php for your theme

Look under the Function themeheader. You should see a couple lines like this

Code:

                if ($banners == 1) {
	include("banners.php");}

CUT those lines and PASTE them right below this in the Function themeheader.

Code:

    print $r_file;

MAKE a backup of your original theme.php file in case you mess up.

Your entire Function themeheader in your theme.php should now look something like this

Code:

function themeheader() {
    global $user, $banners, $sitename, $slogan, $cookie, $prefix, $dbi;
    cookiedecode($user);
    $username = $cookie[1];
    if ($username == "") {
        $username = "Anonymous";
    }
    echo "<body bgcolor=\"#31404E\" text=\"#FFFFCC\" leftmargin=\"10\" topmargin=\"10\" marginwidth=\"10\" marginheight=\"10\">";
	
    $topics_list = "<select name=\"new_topic\" onChange='submit()'>\n";
    $topics_list .= "<option value=\"\">All Topics</option>\n";
    $toplist = sql_query("select topicid, topictext from ".$prefix."_topics order by topictext", $dbi);
    while(list($topicid, $topics) = sql_fetch_row($toplist, $dbi)) {
    if ($topicid==$topic) { $sel = "selected "; }
	$topics_list .= "<option $sel value=\"$topicid\">$topics</option>\n";
	$sel = "";
    }
    if ($username == "Anonymous") {
	$theuser = "<a href=\"modules.php?name=Your_Account&op=new_user\">Create an account";
    } else {
	$theuser = "Welcome $username!";
    }
	$public_msg = public_message();
    $tmpl_file = "themes/DarkBlue/header.html";
    $thefile = implode("", file($tmpl_file));
    $thefile = addslashes($thefile);
    $thefile = "\$r_file=\"".$thefile."\";";
    eval($thefile);
    print $r_file;
    blocks(left);
    $tmpl_file = "themes/DarkBlue/left_center.html";
    $thefile = implode("", file($tmpl_file));
    $thefile = addslashes($thefile);
    $thefile = "\$r_file=\"".$thefile."\";";
    eval($thefile);
    print $r_file;
                if ($banners == 1) {
	include("banners.php");}
}
