I made this change awile ago, but thought I would share it. This is pretty much a change to the default theme header. This is the change I made to theme.tpl to the header section.


<table cellspacing="0">
    <tr id="header">
        <td id="headerlogo"><a href="<{xoAppUrl /}>" title="<{$xoops_sitename}>"><{php}>
                  //This is used to calculate the various holidays and change the main Banner Logo Appropriately
                    $currentYear = date("Y");
                $day = date("j");
                $mnth = date("n");
                
                              //Used to Calculate floating Holidays
                $easterday = date("j", easter_date($currentYear));  
                $eastermnth = date("n", easter_date($currentYear));  
                $edaystart = ($easterday - 7);
                $edaystop = ($easterday + 2);
                if ($edaystart<1 ) {$edaystart = 1;}
                if ($edaystop>31 ) {$edaystop = 31;}
                
                $turkeyDay = date('j', strtotime("november $currentYear fourth thursday"));
                $turkeyStart = ($turkeyDay - 7);
                $turkeyStop = ($turkeyDay + 2);
                
                               //Normal Image
                                $HolidayMsg = "Hello";
                $logofile = $this->_tpl_vars['xoops_imageurl']. "logo_normal.jpg";
                
                //XMAS
                if ($mnth == "12" AND $day <= 29){
                    $logofile = $this->_tpl_vars['xoops_imageurl']. "logo_xmas.jpg";
                    $HolidayMsg = "Merry Christmas";
                }else if ($mnth == "11" AND $day > $turkeyStop ) {
                       $logofile = $this->_tpl_vars['xoops_imageurl']. "logo_xmas.jpg";
                    $HolidayMsg = "Merry Christmas";
                
                               //NYE    
                }else if ($mnth == "12" AND $day > 29) {
                       $logofile = $this->_tpl_vars['xoops_imageurl']. "logo_newyears.jpg";
                    $HolidayMsg = "Happy New Years";
                }else if ($mnth == "1" AND $day < 7) {
                    $logofile = $this->_tpl_vars['xoops_imageurl']. "logo_newyears.jpg";
                    $HolidayMsg = "Happy New Years";
                
                               //St Pattys Day
                }else if ($mnth == "3" AND $day > 10 AND $day <= 19){
                         $logofile = $this->_tpl_vars['xoops_imageurl']. "logo_stpattys.jpg";
                    $HolidayMsg = "Happy St. Patty's Day";
                
                               //Easter
                }else if ($mnth == $eastermnth AND $day >= $edaystart and $day <= $edaystop){
                    $logofile = $this->_tpl_vars['xoops_imageurl']. "logo_easter.jpg";
                    $HolidayMsg = "Happy Easter";
                
                               //4th July
                }else if ($mnth == "6" AND $day >= 28){
                    $logofile = $this->_tpl_vars['xoops_imageurl']. "logo_4thjuly.jpg";
                    $HolidayMsg = "Happy 4th of July";
                }else if ($mnth == "7" AND $day <= 6){
                    $logofile = $this->_tpl_vars['xoops_imageurl']. "logo_4thjuly.jpg";
                    $HolidayMsg = "Happy 4th of July";
                
                               //THANKSGIVING
                }else if ($mnth == "11" AND $day >= $$turkeyStart AND $day <= $turkeyStop ) {
                       $logofile = $this->_tpl_vars['xoops_imageurl']. "logo_turkey.jpg";
                    $HolidayMsg = "Happy Thanksgiving";
                
                               //Default Normal Logo
                }else{
                    $logofile = $this->_tpl_vars['xoops_imageurl']. "logo_normal.jpg";
                     }
                echo '. $logofile . '"';    
<{/php}> alt="<{$xoops_sitename}>"/>a>td>
        <td id="headerbanner"><{$xoops_banner}>td>
    tr>
    <tr>
        <td id="headerbar" colspan="2" height="25" style="vertical-align: middle;"><FONT COLOR = #0066FF> <{if $xoops_isuser}> <{php}>echo $HolidayMsg;<{/php}> <{$xoops_name}> and Welcome Back!  <{else}> <{php}>echo $HolidayMsg;<{/php}>! If you're new here, please register for a free account <{/if}> 
    tr>
table>


This looks at the date, then changes the img src to the appropriate logo depending on the holiday. It changes a few days before the holiday and reset a few days after the holiday. It also changes the welcome message that appears in the header bar. Each of those images are basically my same site logo, with a different holiday theme added to it.

Hopefully, someone else finds this useful. I am sure there is a more SMARTY way of doing this. I just figured it was easier for me to inject PHP to handle it.

Very cool!

I hope, one of our theme designers will be able to use it.

Hi Kev,
2 remarks,

- Add a directory images in the theme, better than in the root theme directory
- If we want to generalize your code, we should take into account the international and geographic aspect of the dates.
Example 1:The holidays are not all at the same time depending on the country, depending on the region (3 different zones in France),
Example 2: certain holidays do not exist in certain countries (July 4 in the United States, July 14 in France)

I dont find xoops smarty date to transform your php code in template files with smarty tests but I'm not a specialist.
