Sorry guys, I thought my problem was resolved but it looks like i’ve spoke to soon.
The code _CK_ suggested below, worked wonders to add a new “on” class on my forum links:
<li<?php if ($current_forum_id=get_forum_id()) {echo " class='on'";} ?>>
Problem!
The trouble is that the unique “on” class is being displayed on every forum link, when I need it to only display when i’m viewing forum 2 for example. Basically, i need a unique css class and current forum marker so the user knows which forum they are currently viewing.
Below is the souce code for all of forum.php (if anyone has time to have a quick look i’d really appreciate it).
<?php bb_get_header(); ?>
<h3><?php forum_name(); ?> Forum</h3>
<ul id=”forumnav”>
<li<?php if ($current_forum_id=get_forum_id()) {echo ” class=’on'”;} ?>>” title=”Latest homepage”><span>Latest<img src=”images/white-arrow.gif” style=”padding: 0 0 3px 5px” width=”10″ height=”5″ border=”0″ /></span>
<li<?php if ($current_forum_id=get_forum_id()) {echo ” class=’on'”;} ?>>forum/forum2″ title=”Forum 2″><span>Forum 2</span>
<li<?php if ($current_forum_id=get_forum_id()) {echo ” class=’on'”;} ?>>forum/forum3″ title=”Forum 3″><span>Forum 3</span>
<li class=”<?php echo $class;?>”>forum/forum3″ title=”Forum 3″><span>Forum 3</span>

Thanks again sambauers, _CK_ and other mods – you’re doing a great job.
