Full Version: Category Header Option

I'd like to have an option to change out the header for each category.
This would allow a wider appeal to various groups and let them use the same database.

For example, this link would have it's own header image and title:
The MyBB Development Group
should be plugin not core

but i like the idea behind
Is there even a plugin for that currently? I don't see the demand.
Interesting

Independent Headers would help to address the "two-forums-one-database" dilemma. 
Such as: https://community.mybb.com/thread-135888...two+forums

There is simpler method.

Clone your theme and change header. Now you can choose theme per forum category in forum settings.

I briefly tried this on my localhost AND IT WORKED!
This feature of MyBB is excellent.  Thank you for pointing out the way!

Finding that feature is easily overlooked.
It's under "Forum-Specific Style:" <-- I think they meant "Theme"  --"Forum-Specific Theme" would have been more consistent.
