Go to AP>>Modules>>Javascript management:

On that page tick the box "Enable Javascript code management" to "Yes" and save your settings.

Then click Create a new javascript" and paste this code into the box. Then write a title for the javascript (can be anything you want) and tick the box "In all pages", then scroll to the bottom of the box and click "submit".

Code:

Hmmm i've done that still nothing, it says something about 'do not edit below here' i've not edited anything, just copied and pasted everything in the box straight in, I don't understand the codes or how they work, i've just used something like a link in the past copied and pasted into forum description

[runawayhorses]

Take a look at this topic, however when I looked at the demo's none of them were working, but they might if youi add them to your forum the ones in the demos could have been removed. Is this where you seen the codes before?

Not in that thread no but I can't see any codes in there, tried countless others from around the support forum though, perhaps it's me doing something wrong lol!  Thanks for your help
