PLEASE click INSTALL if you like this hack ;)

[gwerzal]

Thanks for the release. Will check it out.

[M-Tuning]

Is it possible to change the time the advert rotates?

[Holfy.com]

THANKYOU! :D installing right away.

[Jasem]

Thank you a lot

[meolangthang]

Thank you! Installing :D

[billt928]

it seems to have issues with very long url's (cuts them off)

[Al Gregory]

Thank You needed this very badly, had to remove VBPortal because it wouldnt work right for me with 3.7 gold.
One question, this is only showing in my default style. How would I make it work in other styles?

I guess it depends on the style, I see it on some and on some pages but not all. Thats ok I only show banners to unregistered and new members anyway. I will just make it so they cant change styles until they reach the post limit that they would no longer see banners.

[airborneCAL]

When I click on the link it takes me to my smilies page. What gives?

[NFLfbJunkie]

I have placed the banners folder as such: /public_html/forums/cyb_banners/

So when I add a banner, the banner path that I put in the banner field is cyb_banners/logo.png.

The logo shows on all my pages except the vbadvanced_cmps home page. If I place a second cyb_banners folder in the root, it works; but there should be a way to have just the one folder I would think. Is there a setting I am missing?

[Flep]

Is it possible to add the banner between posts too ?

[Flep]

ops sorry... I didn't read this:

2. OPTIONAL: Open desired template and add "$cyb_flashimagebanners" where you wish banners to appear

[midwestce]

I'm getting a Security Token error like some other people have had problems with regarding other versions of vBulletin. Anyone else having this issue (or) have an idea on what I can do?

I've uninstalled the previous versions of the banner rotator addon and reinstalled with the same issue. I go into 'Manager Banners' from the drop down and input the data that is needed, click 'Go' and it comes up with the security token issue.

Thanks,

Nick

[TeknoSounds]

Cyb, I had posted in the old vb3.6 thread, but never got an answer.

I really like your banner mod, and would like to include it in an external page from vB. I was curious what all code I needed to include in my php page in order to access the "$cyb_flashimagebanners" variable.

[midwestce]

Okay, 2 issues I have found...

I managed to get the banners added by manually putting in the token code, but I can't make banners active/inactive from the manage screen.

Secondly, the banners do not have a hyperlink @ the top of the page. Any insight?

Thanks.

[crkgb]

On some of the pages when I open "Quick links" I get two "Manage Banners" links. The first one leads to the correct url and the second one takes you to

Is there any way to fix that?

[airborneCAL]

When I click on the link it takes me to my smilies page. What gives?

Any idea with my issue? Post 15 -

Thanks.

[XnaMe]

Hello! How can i add another thing like to add another banner rotator between the nav and forums, but more large, and with images only i'have selected? thanks!

[McMendo]

Are you a Super-Admin?

Not all Admins are able to manage banners.It works now as admin.

But refreshing a page sometimes gives a blank. I have 2 banners loaded from the server and one banner loaded from an external site. The banners configuration is in random.

[Al Gregory]

Added this to another site and banners dont appear
Fixxed it had to add $cyb_flashimagebanners to the header template

[midwestce]

In addition to my issue on post 15, I'm also having the issue of them (the banners) occasionally NOT showing up on page refreshes.

Thanks.

Any help is appreciated.

hello

I have a problem with your hack

for example

3. OPTIONAL (if link to manage banners page is not shown in Quick links menu):
Open navbar template and add "$insert_cybfibr" after "$vbphrase[miscellaneous]</td></tr>"

give it

it switches to te

I got a problem when it loads. It keeps refreshing the entire page every 10 seconds, insted of just the banner. Has anyone had this issue, or noticed it happening yet?

[Blackheart_72]

Very nice, banners work fine in it.

The only problem i do have is if i mark all banners as inactive all my animated forum sigs stop working in IE but wirk fine in firefox.

when you add the banner, put /[forumdir]/ in front of cyb_banners and you dont' ahve to have two separate folders

[flussmitteldj]

The forum freezed with leaf by the forums (ruckelt) with activated hack?

Awesome plugin Syb. But is it also possible to show specific banners in a specific section of a forum? That would be awesome. I also found a problem. It seems that using this plugin with banners causes anti-adblock is removing the banners (adblock with firefox). And also, please add on which forum sections the banner should show up.

[1quick1]

what the hell is a super admin? I'm having the same issue as a bunch of other admins here......when I click on the "manage banners" in the quick links it just takes me to a page with smilies. I went through every option and my admin account is set to do EVERYTHING. This makes no sense.

Go into the vBulletin config.php file, (forums/includes) folder and search through the code for "Super Admin" and add your user id to it ;)

// ****** SUPER ADMINISTRATORS ******
// The users specified below will have permission to access the administrator permissions
// page, which controls the permissions of other administrators
$config['SpecialUsers']['superadministrators'] = '1,2';

Yea I was googling and just found that. My user ID is 1 and it's listed as the super admin. Anything else to try?

Per instructions included:

3. OPTIONAL (if link to manage banners page is not shown in Quick links menu):
Open navbar template and add "$insert_cybfibr" after "$vbphrase[miscellaneous]</td></tr>"

[1quick1]

I tested this with another user. once I put their userid in the super admin field of the forum/includes file and login with that user the "manager banners" link is showing in the quick links but it still just takes me to the smilies page.

[1quick1]

Per instructions included:

3. OPTIONAL (if link to manage banners page is not shown in Quick links menu):
Open navbar template and add "$insert_cybfibr" after "$vbphrase[miscellaneous]</td></tr>"

Yea I did that too. I didn't have to follow that step and the "manage banners" link was already in the quick links but I went and added that code anyways which basically just put two links in the quick links dropdown and I still get the same thing.

I can see the link just fine but no matter what it just takes me to a page with smilies listed.

[1quick1]

I just changed my forum/includes config file and took user ID 1 out and went to the page, refreshed, and checked the quick links and manage banners link disappeared. Once i went back in and put my user id "1" back in and refreshed the manage banner link reappeared. So it seems to me that hack recognizes I'm set as a super admin but for some reason I can not see the banner manager page :(

[1quick1]

Finally figured it out. The Admins account has to have admin set as the primary usergroup and not as an aditional usergroup. If you use the experience mod that's here and use the promotion system within that, one of the requirements is to set your admin account to admin as the secondary group. So this will not work with the automatic promotion system in the experience hack.

[sikk08]

It'd be cool if we could have different ad categories.

Example: I want to place 5 ads in my header, and now I want to place 5 different ads in my footer. If I add 10 ads now they will all rotate through the header and footer but making it so I can create different categories will allow me to divide my ads up throughout the site. Maybe for future upgrades?

Let me know what you think.

[HP10T]

Where do I upload the banners to? I don't see a cyb_banners/ folder

[BWilliams]

Where do I upload the banners to? I don't see a cyb_banners/ folder

You need to "create" the folder.

[HP10T]

You need to "create" the folder.

Any particular location?

[HP10T]

Got it working thanks.

Only thing is that I am not sure hwere to place $cyb_flashimagebanners in my header file to make it so that it is centered on the right side of my site, it keeps throwing off the margins and stuff and knocking my logo on the left side out of the table.

[BWilliams]

Any particular location?
I think it needs to be in the forum directory at minimum. I put mine in the ...forum/images/ folder.

The banners don't show for some reason - Help please.

Great work 1quick - I couldn't figure out the problem and never received any help with it. Cyb, can this be fixed to include additional usergroups?

[Cyclopsx]

I think it needs to be in the forum directory at minimum. I put mine in the ...forum/images/ folder.
Is that in the server itself or through the Admin panel of vBulletin.

I ask because I don't have access to the server at the moment, only the vB Admin panel.

[Cigarcritic]

Uninstalled...no help with "security token" issue.

[PoetJA-1975]

There should be no security token issue with the 3.7 version - You should check HERE (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=177013) for more information about remedying the security token issue - It's probably unrelated to the Flash banner ads hack.

i am so confused i installed it their is no banner in quicklick i went to navbar and followed the instruction but still no show...first time i am so confused with ur hack..kindly help

[pauldack]

Awesome plugin Syb. But is it also possible to show specific banners in a specific section of a forum? That would be awesome. I also found a problem. It seems that using this plugin with banners causes anti-adblock is removing the banners (adblock with firefox). And also, please add on which forum sections the banner should show up.

I'd very much like to see this as well. I currently have two seperate ares for banners which are different sizes so I can only use this mod for one of them.

That aside, another superb mod from Cyb, thank you very much.

[iheartvb]

very nice mod! love it!

[mystic10]

when i click on the banner i get this error

The requested URL /\"http://www.yc-spicy.com/misc.php was not found on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

[mystic10]

where is the banner management page i am confused on how to get to that page

[mystic10]

nevermind i got it...

request: as this is only for superadmin..anyway to integrate it so u can give permission to id or usergroup so they can add as well

[Valter]

If you can give someone permissions to access ftp to upload banners then you can make him SuperAdmin too, right? :-)

[KAWIE1]

Thanks for the hack man.

Hey, how do I move it up a little on my header?

[z0diac]

Weird, I keep getting this when trying to add a banner:

Your submission could not be processed because a security token was missing or mismatched.

If this occurred unexpectedly, please inform the administrator and describe the action you performed before you received this error.

[JodiSal]

The banners aren't showing up on all of my skins and also other than the default vbulletin skin, nothing happens when I click on the banner (it doesn't take me to the URL that I set in the manage banners section).

Any thoughts?

[winpro19]

First of all, great hack!

Now to the questions part :D

I want to make "two sets" of images. Basically, I have four banners. But 2 of them belong to one category, and 2 to the other. So what I want to do is:

Banner 1 & 2 rotating here
Banner 3 & 4 rotating here (below banner 1/2)

How can I do this? Basically want to install your product "twice" if that makes sense.

Thanks!

[RrCoX22]

^i would like to know this too... how can you place this mod in two locations? using 3.7.2 and would like to use my ad_locations template but would need a code?

[RrCoX22]

forget this mod actually... it causes the forum to jump up and down everytime the duration reloads. if you want a banner to stay on the page for awhile you have to set the duration to a number that does not exist

[winpro19]

well to fix that problem what i did was
1. ensure all banners are same size
2. make it continuous, rather than random (dont know if this makes a difference or not)

[Derekclarke]

How can i get the banner to appear below the header and not to the right of it?

[Derekclarke]

I have sorted this...

However... the page Jumps with this enabled... every time the displayed image is about to change.. it looks like the site has the Hickups...

[shotkey]

I might be dense - but I've looked through all of the posts on 3.6 and this thread - have seen these two questions asked multiple times but have never seen any answers to them. I have this installed, manage banners shows up, banners show up in control panel, urls input, no problems there.

Problem 1 - no matter what banner - when you mouse over it the cursor changes to a hand, but when you click on it nothing happens. Tried changing addresses in the CP - nothing I've tried makes the banner links active.

Problem 2 - only had 3 banners, but when you refresh the page it sometimes come up with no banner. Doesn't matter if it's set to continuous or random. Also doesn't seem to matter what any of the other settings are set to in the CP. Tried deleting two of the banners so that all I had was one banner - but it still does the same thing. Sometimes the banner is displayed and other times the banner doesn't come up.

Anyone have any ideas?

Asked multiple times & no answer - I've noticed this with many threads so new question - What does it mean when "supported" is checked in the top of a thread?

[Derekclarke]

anyone any idea why the page jumps when the Image changes?

Uninstalled - apparently not supported.

I am having trouble getting this working, it is me not the mod.

But cannot see how to upload my 1 banner etc... total n00b i know, any help please?

[yotsume]

Can this mod be used to replace my site's header image and place a banner that rotates in place of the header image instead? I need a mod that rotates the header with images or flash...

[yotsume]

I have installed this and use it to replace my header image with a flash banner. How can I now get the header to be clickable so it points to my homepage when clicked on? Is that possible? Image banners are clickable but the flash isnt? :(

Also it seems the default flash background is set to black. Where can I edit so I can change that to match my site please?

I had just released a random banner rotation mod. However, after finding this mod mine is useless! LOL

[Valter]

Flash banner authors should make them clickable.

Or set option #9 to 'Yes' in hack settings.

[MoviePropCollec]

I downloaded this, but I don't see manage banner in my control center, but it shows in my vbulletin control panel home.

Where is the program?

[MoviePropCollec]

Ok I see it now.

Only thing is, when I enter a url say from photobucket, I only see the blank rectangle and it is clickable, but no pic INSIDE of it.

Also, what if I just want a still jgp of a pic from my pc? I can't do that?

[MoviePropCollec]

Anyone?

[glass fanatic]

I just intsalled the program but not sure how to implement it to be used on the left side for ad banners (vertical)
Can you help out? I'm fairly new to this
Thanks

[yotsume]

Or set option #9 to 'Yes' in hack settings.

Ok I'll just redo my flash banner on my end. The arrow method is useless for me and does not make the entire banner a hyper link.

Does anyone actually address our quesitons, lol, or are there just more questions?

[Dustin_a31]

How can I change the default width-height values for the dimensions in the manage banners page? I cant seem to find a place to be able to. maybe I'm looking in the wrong place. can anyone help? Do I need to manually adjust the value from the database?

[Derekclarke]

I have an issue with this... I just uploaded it to one of my forums and when i click on the link to Manage banners, i am taken to the FAQ page for Smiles?

How do i resolve this?

Uninstalled, doesn't show in footers or in vbadvanced and Cyb never answers any questions, on any of his hacks, I don't know why vb.org allows this man to list all his hacks as supported.

[yotsume]

Uninstalled, doesn't show in footers or in vbadvanced and Cyb never answers any questions, on any of his hacks, I don't know why vb.org allows this man to list all his hacks as supported.

I wouldn't be to quick to go off on the developer here. His hacks are famous and work. Many times when a complaint such as your own is posted here the solution is found in re-reading the instructions carefully and finding where we went wrong our selves.

This hack does work in the footer and most certainly shows easily on vbadvanced pages. I use it to rotate my header. Now as to how to get the banners or ads to show in a block fro vba I don't believe thats an option with this hack. However for showing adds in vba blocks there are other hacks designed for that purpose already.

[tafreeh]

hey great hack...

but can i use IFRAME with that.... ??? if yes then how would i do that?

[yotsume]

Possible Bug?

I believe I have found a bug. When you have a number of image banners that are set to rotate randomly this will make your site flicker or blink often. If you set the same amount of banners but choose continuous your site will not blink.

Has this been discussed and is there a fix?

This same flickering bug happens on three sites all running vb3.7.3x. All three sites stopped blinking when I changed the setting back to continuous. The flickering is so annoying to users they stop visiting the site!

[cerbdawg]

Hey there. I am really appreciative of this mod. I do have a question / request.

I have a customer that has provided a Flash banner that requires passing params to it:

For the <object> tag:

<param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain" />
<param name="flashvars" value="clickTAG=http%3A%2F%2Fa_domain_name.com" />

In the Embed tag:

allowScriptAccess="sameDomain" flashvars="clickTAG =http%3A%2F%2Fa_domain_name.com"


I don't believe the current product supports passing params like this.

Any chance of a hack to allow this?

Ta!

Is there an easy way to have a banner clickable to a mailto: email address?

Yep there is :)

Goto Control Panel

Plugin Manager

Cyb - Flash-Image Banner Rotator - SP

edit it :)

Find (at the Bottom)

(strip_tags($vbulletin->GPC['url']));
}


and replace it with



if (strstr($vbulletin->GPC['url'], 'mailto'))
{
$toemail=$vbulletin->GPC['url'];


echo "<a href=\"$toemail?subject=Question From the **** BB\" id=\"clickME\"></a>\n";

echo<<<PPPRINT

Please Close this Window
<script type="text/javascript">
window.onload = function() {
document.getElementById("clickME").click();
}
</script>
PPPRINT;

exit;

}
else
{
exec_header_redirect(strip_tags($vbulletin->GPC['url']));
}
}


Then all you have todo is put mailto:some@home.com in the url field :)

[silver surfer]

I want this mod but everything I try to do in my template simply will not allow the "manage banners" button/link show...

I have put this $insert_cybfibr command exactly after $vbphrase[miscellaneous]</td></tr> & the link will not show in my quicklinks drop down?!?!

I have also tried other areas to see if I can simply just get this to show...

Is there a url that is defaulted when this is clicked for example,

www.siteurl.com/managebanner.php ? ?

If I knew the link then I can just simply type it in the url but otherwise I cant use this for some strange reason...

My VB is: (vBulletin 3.7.0)

Any ideas or can anyone tell me the url the link defaults you to?!

hey..

i got this mod installed... i got it to display ads, and allows me to manage ads..

however it is not allowing a link to another site..

my site:

www.rogue-market.com

(the test ad is above the logo, the weird image, that is big).

I made it link to another site using the management... but its sitll not working.. any clue?

[albibak]

Thanks for this mod.
You can find a french translation here (http://forum.vbulletin-fr.org/t14090-rotation-des-bannieres-flashimage.html), and in attachement.

[Nintendo-Daily]

I've installed it correctly and even added my different banners using "Manage Banners" but I still cannot see any of the banners I made active.

Do I have to change the "Title Image" path in the stylevars to something else other than the default path?

[bartek24m]

I am still having the issue with the hyperlink not showing up on the banner at all. Any insight on this?

Thanks.
probably you have doubled code in your forumhome template

please delete one of $cyb_flashimagebanners

and it will be work :)

i had the same problem but i solve it

Bye

[TriMe]

I had 2 issues that I rectified- maybe the author can put them in the first post. I'm using vB 3.7.4 patch level 1.

1. Fixed the security token error " Your submission could not be processed because a security token was missing."

Goto admincp -> in the following 3 templates: cyb_flashimagebanner, cyb_flashimagebanner_edit , cyb_flashimagebanner_manage
look for:
<input type="hidden" name="securitytoken" value="$cybfibr_sectok" />

under it add:

<input type="hidden" name="securitytoken" value="$bbuserinfo[securitytoken]" />

2. In the instructions this optional step -> Open navbar template and add "$insert_cybfibr" after "$vbphrase[miscellaneous]</td></tr>" wasn't working for me, just add

<a href="http://yoursite.com/misc.php?do=cybbannman">Manage Banners</a>

where ever you want the link

[dmknights]

*Installed*
A Useful mod, however you will need to know basic HTML to know where to place the banners

[TriMe]

There is a settings for left and right margins, and they are set to 0. But I want to remove the top and bottom gap as well. What code so I have to alter to do that?

http://img184.imageshack.us/img184/2594/captureda2.jpg

Thanks in advance,

TriMe

[ghisirds]

3. OPTIONAL (if link to manage banners page is not shown in Quick links menu):
Open navbar template and add "$insert_cybfibr" after "$vbphrase[miscellaneous]</td></tr>"

I did so, but does not appear.
how to manage it?
thanks

I believe I have found a bug. When you have a number of image banners that are set to rotate randomly this will make your site flicker or blink often. If you set the same amount of banners but choose continuous your site will not blink.

Has this been discussed and is there a fix?

This same flickering bug happens on three sites all running vb3.7.3x. All three sites stopped blinking when I changed the setting back to continuous. The flickering is so annoying to users they stop visiting the site!

I'm experiencing this aswell. Problem with setting to continuous is that the banners in the top of the list are shown much more than the others so I can't really use this.

I've had to install an otherwsie superb mod until this bug is fixed.

Great Improvements Cybernetec!! :up:

I Liked a lot the one of the "New Play Mode: One banner per refresh", is very useful to save resources and get the objective of displaying different Rotated Banners on the Forum.

Is there a Chance for you to Include a Confirmation Step on the Delete Process of the Banners? (Imagine if you select all (or some) the Banners and try to select the "Mark as Inactive" option but instead you select by accident the "Delete" Option and then the "Go" Button... Without the Confirmation Step All the Banners will be Deleted...) :confused:

I'm suggesting the Confirmation Step for Deleting Banners because some time ago I accidentally deleted some banners because I made the mistake of selecting "Delete" instead of "Mark as Inactive"...

I hope you can provide that Functionallity in your next Update of this Great Mod. ;)

I Like a lot your Mods You're a Great Coder... Thank You Very Much For Sharing This Great Mods. :up::up::up:

My Best Regards.

this would be great if it let you put in google adsense banners

[MoviePropCollec]

Downloaded it, entered the url for the gif banner and it does not show up, if I choose Left, right or center.

If I choose always open to the right of the header, and click right for where I want it, a nice blank white box opens up to the right of my flash header/logo but NOT the banner.

What gives? From reading the posts, the programmer seems like a cool dude, I can't figure out what is wrong :(

It looks like a nice control panel in my Admin account though.

Is there a way to change where the ad sits in the header? I would like to move it up a few pixels so it sits well in my header area.

See attached.

Thanks!
Rudy

[dmknights]

just add the variable to the template you want it in

[PME]

Well for some reason it automatically shows up on this template. I will add it to the header and see what happens. Thanks!

[Vaupell]

would love to install, but got a problem when trying to add a banner..

Your submission could not be processed because a security token was missing.

If this occurred unexpectedly, please inform the administrator and describe the action you performed before you received this error.



p.s using vb 3.8, so wishing for a 3.8 updated. :D
EDIT : admin+supermod = fewer errors but still get a few.. but its working.

works like charm! thank you so much for this! :)

[invitezone]

will this mod work with multiple skins ? i seen some ask on the first page..lol but no one answered it.

thanks

[Kaldes]

Yes this works with multiple skins, but for some skins adding banner in different place may not look proper, so with that just adjust and find a place to put.

I have a question I'm putting this in my breadcrumb/navbar and trying to put this and a google ad together but they are on top of each other instead of side by side like I wish. What can I do to adjust that?

It seem this ad thing takes up the entire line which is why it pushes up since I can click the entire space and not just the ad, for an FYI. I also just realized that this for 3.7 and I'm running 3.8 not sure if that has to deal with anything

[Parafal]

Hi,

The duration in the admin painel means days? weeks? months?

I put 5 for duration and the banner is still there after 2 weeks.

[John1uk]

i have looked around this thread for an answer as i am a little confused.

i have google adsense in the top right of my vBa cmps homepage.

is there a way to have banners showings underneath my marque site here. www.essex-poker.co.uk

if not then could i add them to centre column of my cmps homepage.

thanks for reading.

John

[trippyskip]

Can someone provide the url to the banner management page? I can't get the link to show in the quick links, so I can't even access it... Thanks!

Please Help!

[terminator2k2]

issue.. when the administrators group is on the list of the groups who don't have to see the banners, admins cannot change anything because of the securitytokkens

[Firestar.chkn]

I'm getting an issue with my Manage Banners URL.

It should be:

<FORUM URL>/misc.php?do=cybbannman

However, it is

<FORUM URL>/%5C%22<FORUM URL>/misc.php?do=cybbannman\%22

Can anyone tell me where I can go and change the URL? I wanted to just hard code it into the template, but the problem is that I'll then show the link to everyone, as I don't know how to do the permissions checks there as well.

So, in short, where is the value of $cyb_flashimagebanners created?

[Firestar.chkn]

Nobody knows how to do this?

[ispots]

This error still exists and has not been addressed by anyone. It was even asked on the first page of the thread.

In the Quick Links, 2 instances of the link exist and one of them does not even work.

Why does this happen and what is the fix???

(screen shot attached)

[worldwidereefer]

The issue with me is that is pushes my header banner to the right and insert it self to the left....extended my forum.

Any way I can place this onto of my banner ? any help would be greatly appreciate it.

[Strike-Force.ne]

So far the mod is installed and I placed the file Cyb_Banners (with swf in it) in the forums folder. I goto manage banners enter the site url....example...123.com. Under banner...Cyb_Banners/bannerflash.swf When I save I get a black arrow where the banner should be. If I click on either the blue or orange arrow under banner I get
http://123.com/forums/cyb_banners/bannerflash.swf (not actual site) but is comes up as webpage not found.

Could use some help.......Fustrated and learning

Thanks

Figured out........ok

[Sticky1]

Do the images / flash have to be in the cyb_banners folder or can I pull the images in from photobucket..? If so how..?

Thanks

[yotsume]

That is just a default value in that field. Input the full url to your banner in there.

Example: http://www.photobucket.com/myalbum/mybanner.jpg

You can host your banners on your server in any folder you wish or from another site.

[Sticky1]

Thank you for your reply........

Is there any reason why the display order 1-20 would be correct however the pictures being displayed are not in order..?

Tried "save display order" several times...

IN ACP the continuous mode has to be selected...!!

Finally got things working......Thanks

[sheep92032]

For everyone with the "Your submission could not be processed because a security token was missing." error, either this error is unfixable or the maker just doesn't want to fix it. But to get round it you can just edit and add banners via phpMyAdmin in the <forum prefix>cybbanners table.

[vitrag24]

Just installed your mod.
As usual, like your all other mods, this mod rocks too.

Thanks a lot.

I've some questions :

In duration, what we are supposed to enter? Is it in minutes/seconds or what?

I've tried keeping 30 in one and 5 in other, but both banner were being displaying for around 15-20seconds.

One request in next update:

--Keep subscription period for particular banner. e.g. If one purchase ad spot on my site for 6months, than there shd be option to set this so after 6 months it'll automatically become inactive. if 1 months, after 1 month it'll become inactive automatically.

--At below right corner of banner, it should display sponser ads and at other corner, advertise here hyperlinked text.

[eric8476]

can we add adsense as a banner?

[Scalemotorcars]

Cvber, why isnt this working in the footer?

Tried adding the variable to VBA, didnt work...
Tried adding $GLOBALS[cyb_flashimagebanners] and that works in a VBA module but still not in the footer.
Tried the regular $cyb_flashimagebanners on its own in the footer and still didnt work.

Seems I can get it to work everywhere but the footer.

Any ideal why?

Aside from that this is a great Mod you might want to add the VBA instructions into the download. Thanks

[Ronseal]

Hi Cyb,
I've installed the feature to my site and added the banner in the 'common templates/footer'. Now it all works perfect except that when I open any thread on my site for page one the banner graphic disappears, but on page two and beyond it's fine. I also notice that on this first page of the thread it carriage returns the '#1' post link so it appears as below:

#
1

Any ideas?

Many thanks
Ron

Hi and thanks for the MOD, unfortunately I cannot get the image url to operate when you click the image.

When you place the mouse over the image you get the image title but no URL.

I cannot find any advice as to how I should set this up. My VBB version is 3.6.10.

cheers

Hmmm that was quick, turn off "Add Banners automatically to forum header (top right)" in control panel, don't ask me why.

[B@Zzz...]

Hello,
I just installed the Banner Rotator but now my Quicklinks doens'n work anymore... They don't appear?

This is the error I get (in dutch, with "my" translation to English between "()" ):

Bericht: 'document.cbgoto.id' is leeg of geen object (empty or no object)

Anyone who can help me? When I turn the mod Off, the quicklinks works back again?

Tnx!


EDIT:
when I turn this option off: Add Banners automatically to forum header (top right), the quicklinks works again, but without a link to the banners?

[B@Zzz...]

I've read all the posts in this topic and see that turning off that option works by several people.

Now I only have to place the code for the link to the bannermanager in the quicklinks.
Only if I look at the navbartemplate I don't see the where to insert the code?
Where can I find the navbar-template exactly? I think I'm looking at the wrong template...

tnx for your help!

after updating vbseo, banner image isnt being shown in forum, shown only on manage banner link page..

solution?

[mmllc]

Any ideas on how to sort of install this twice and let it handle a 468x60 spot and a 728x90 spot in totally separate locations, separate banners, separate deals for advertisers.

I'm trying it out now, as for as I can tell we can use any size banner but it only shows where we add the $cyb_flashimagebanners call. Am I wrong? Can we let this show up in two spots but the 468x60 banners only in spot A and the 728x90 banners in spot be, that would be a great solution as well.

Wouldn't it be great if we could just install this twice *somehow* and do what I suggested? Was this asked already? I only ask because this is the mod I'm going with for that 468x60 spot and would love for it to handle the 728x90 spot as well. Thanks.
