do you think you will be adding tracking? I had to leave this mod to go to one that allows it =[
yes in version 2.7 with the ad sharing you can see a demo here :

I’ve downloaded the Mod but it’s unclear to me if I install just the ‘Advertisement_SystemV2.4’ or if I have to install the ‘Advertisement_SystemV2.4With_Auto_Refresh’ as well?

I don’t need my Ads to rotate and I only want them to appear after the first post in a thread and the footer. I'd appreciate some advice and direction, do I need to complete all the template changes as listed (they are a bit confusing)?

Thanks
Ron

2. If I enable this Mod I've just noticed I have 'Advertisement System V2.5 By Branden' written in my footer am I allowed to remove this please?

i have been using ad management for a long time now but last vbulletin update it has started to cause problems.

However looking at this thread i see an overwhelming amount of messy conversations some with answers others without.

I see posts on this page which detail template edits even.

Can you do a rehash of this system which is a stable offering which offers all of the features offered in the old version with no template edits (which really shouldnt be necassary considering the current hook system and hook locations in just about every possible location)

the auto refresh should really be an option in the admin section not a seperate download as it seems to be here.

Can you please in effect take a list of requirements and make the final release and release it as a single download again with clear instructions.

As it stands i dont want to read through over 500 posts to see if the feature i want ios there and working properly or if i have to find some sort of wierd template edit half way through to make it work.

If you would like a dev platform to try things out or host a wiki or bug tracker etc then let me know so we can accumulate the info in one place. i will happily provide the bandwidth and a subfolder on one of my domains if you can sort this out properly.

I would say that ad management is one of the most important additions for many of us but i just cant spend the time trying to followthis all thropugh if there is a possibility that in the end it doesnt work fro some reason.

If i can assist as a project manager then let me know and i will do what i can

currently I have the ads only viewable to those unregistered or not logged in. I added text below the adsense ad in the header that says, "please register to remove ads", BUT, the text still remains after I log in.

How can i make that text disappear as well once I log in?

installed product and semms to of done all the template edits automaticallyNo it didn't. I think you're confused because default vb now has ad code built in at most (or all) of the same places.

I have no idea why ad mods don't use the new hooks so we can dispense with the template edits. Presumably just because they're trying to maintain backward compatibility. But I don't know why they can't just tell people with older vb's to edit templates in the instructions.

How can I show a 468x60 banner on the top right (same level as logo)
go to admincp , style manager , your style , template header and change :
<td align="$stylevar[left]"><a href="$vboptions[forumhome].php$session[sessionurl_q]"><img src="$stylevar[titleimage]" border="0" alt="$vboptions[bbtitle]" /></a></td>
<td align="$stylevar[right]" id="header_right_cell">
<if condition="$ad_location['ad_header_logo']">$ad_location[ad_header_logo]<else />&nbsp;</if>
</td>
with
<td align="$stylevar[left]"><a href="$vboptions[forumhome].php$session[sessionurl_q]"><img src="$stylevar[titleimage]" border="0" alt="$vboptions[bbtitle]" /></a></td>
<td align="$stylevar[right]">$ad_headerEnd
<td align="$stylevar[right]" id="header_right_cell">

<if condition="$ad_location['ad_header_logo']">$ad_location[ad_header_logo]<else />&nbsp;</if>
</td>
to add your banners go to admincp , vbulletin options , Advertisement System (Header & Footer) , yes to Enable header advertisements in the main forum , (( yes to Enable header advertisements in the archives )) , and add your adcode

Hello mates,

I just installed this mod and i was trying to solve my header banner not showing problem, when i suddenlly noticed that in the further end of my footer this message is been shown:
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/

I had a bad feeling about that and started to seek in every footer codes what should it be. When nothing else could solve it, i just had an idea, lets see whats in the Branden oficial website.

So i clicked in his footer credits and got redirected into his website [momsasone] when i just saw a cute google adsense just below his credits!!!!!!!!!!
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/

What i really want to ask is: Is Branden really trying to explore everyone with that subliminar code? If yes, it is really sad, becouse he should've set in the google adsense config every website in the internet to show his ads without saying that it is a really unpolite action.
If no, and even if yes, i would like to know how to get rid off of that error message, becouse i couldnt find that "intruse" code in the Advertisement System templates.

Is anyone there able to help me?

This is my footer code so anyone may check it out:

before i relase any new version (( version 2.6 )) i have to install it in my website for 3 weeks and test the new features (( for version 2.6 track link & stats )) thats why i have to use all adcodes : adsense , simple banners , other scripts exp: ttz media ........... so whats the problem it s a free script if you dont want the copyrith send me a pm !

what i can see you are using the auto refresh :
* make sure you uploaded the 4 php files in your forum folder
* go to admincp , style manager , your style , templates : ad_headerEnd , ad_navbarBelow , ad_footerEnd

add the full link to the autorefresh files:

I'm sorry, i think you missunderstood me. I dont want to be free of the copyright, besides i do fully agreed with it. Every developer must of have his credits.
I just got confused when i saw a banner in your site at the same place that my problem were, i tought it was your adsense code trying to run at my website. My apologies for this inconvenience.

Ok, that part was really missing. But now, my header banner are getting this error:
Unable to add cookies, header already sent.
File: \forum\autorefresh_header.php

Plus it is showing only for logged-in users.
I saw another guy having the same issue and you supported him by PM.
Could you forward it for me?

i dont need a screenshots ! the guests cant acces to your forum folder thats why they cant see the ads in ad_headerEnd, ad_navbarBelow , ad_footerEnd remember the 3 php files for this 3 templates stored in your forum folder !


printscreen = your forum index (forumhome)

Hello buddy, i'm afraid i still cant understand what are you talking about.
This is my step-by-step till now:

1) Uploaded into /forum folder(see atachment ftp_folder.jpg):
ads.php
autorefresh_footer.php
autorefresh_header.php
autorefresh_navbar.php
Ps.: Inside each file i found nothing to edit like URL's or something so i leave it as it is;

2) Uploaded the xml file;

3) Made all the modifications in the instruction file named "Templates edits for vb 3.7.x.txt".(revised and its everything alright);

4) Settings in vBulletin options its ok(only using Header and 2 footer banners at this moment, right colunm is a module on its own);

5) Edited the templates ad_headerEnd , ad_navbarBelow , ad_footerEnd adding the full url to the autorefresh files like you said;

6) "/forum" folder permission is set to CHMOD 777;

7) "ads.php", "autorefresh_footer.php", "autorefresh_header.php" and "autorefresh_navbar.php" all set to CHMOD 666;

It looks everything alright!!!! Thats why i'm so exausted!!
Am i missing something else?!?!!?!? :confused::confused::confused::confused::confused:

Great work so far. For anyone having trouble...make sure you have Disabled AdBlockPlus...it filters ads.php? by default (don't ask me how I know this... :mad: :D )

My question is: What is the best way to show different ads (in my case navbar) in different forums?

From reading this thread and testing it is possible to put something like this...


<if condition="in_array($forumid, array(5,6,7))">
$ad_navbarBelow
<else />
<if condition="THIS_SCRIPT == 'index'">
$ad_navbarBelow
</if>
</if>


...directly in the navbar template and it works great. Only problem is that it's only showing whatever single ad I've put into the adcode section of this plugin. My goal will be to show different ads in different forums and on the forum index.

Seems like I should be able to use something like this directly into the adcode box in this plugin...


<if condition="in_array($forumid, array(5,6,7))">
<img src="banner1.jpg">
<else />
<if condition="THIS_SCRIPT == 'index'">
<img src="banner2.jpg">
</if>

...but in this case the conditionals don't work and I just get two ads displayed. Any hints?

This seems like me missing something trivial.

<if condition="$ad_location['ad_header_logo']">$ad_location[ad_header_logo]<else />&nbsp;</if>

Not working.

- downloaded
- extracted
- uploaded php file to forum root
- imported xml file
- added my adsense code in the "Advertisement System" parts of my vB admin config

Nothing showing up. ( forum.icedogfans.com )

Is there a 'main' on/off switch I need to check to turn the entire ad system on/off ? Also, there's a text file in the RAR file saying "upload the 4 files in the upload directory" but there's only ONE file in there: ads.php

Simon Lloyd

In VBulletin Options there is a main setting for the advertising system (and slide show) that has an on/off in it.

In VBulletin Options there is a main setting for the advertising system (and slide show) that has an on/off in it.

Ok, so aside from the Yes/No buttons next to each thing in the (i believe) 4 different vB settings menus, there's also a "main" on/off" selection somewhere?

If I go Admin CP -> vBulletion Options -> ???

What's the settings menu called? After I intalled this I got 4 different settings menus at the bottom for where I wanted my ads displayed, but I can't recall seeing any main on/off setting for the ads system. :confused:

ver 3.7.3 PL1, if your version is lower than 3.6.x then it won't work. Did you not import the xml as product from your admincp? if you have a folder called xfiles and its in the includes folder then the whole file (xfiles) should be dropped in the includes folder, if the xfiles folder exists in the includes folder then copy the contents of your xfile to that one.

Ok, a couple things:


*** Header : 2 edits

1= at the end add : $ad_headerEnd

2= before :
<td align="$stylevar[right]" id="header_right_cell">
<if condition="$ad_location['ad_header_logo']">$ad_location[ad_header_logo]<else />&nbsp;</if>
</td>
Add :

<td align="$stylevar[right]"><center><if condition="$ad_headerLogo"><center>$ad_headerLogo</center><else />&nbsp;</if></center>

1 is fine. 2... ??? can't find a shred of that in either of my header templates, so I have no idea where to put the additional code.

Also:

*** FORUMHOME 2 edits :
1 = Below
$navbar
Add
<table border="0" width="100%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" align="center">
<tr>
<td valign="top">
$ad_leftcolumn_code
Doing this in one of my styles throws the header, navbar and shoutbox completely out of whack, stretching them over to the extreme right of my page. Seems ok in the other style, but I haven't tested with any code yet.

Any suggestions?

Anybody know how/if it's possible to target ads by location? I have a site that has a large international appeal. It's about 40% American, 40% Canadian, and 20% European.

Will Adsense automatically adjust to the user's location?

And for affiliate ads, if I get Canadian and European affiliates, can I somehow make it so that the ads adjust to only show in the proper regions?

Thanks in advance for any help.

EDIT: Okay, reading up I see that AdSense is Geotargeted. Still not sure how to handle my affiliate question though.

I have a Google adsense(sp?) account - and I put the code they gave me into the Ad Manager in the designated fields, but no ads show up.

Can someone tell me what step I'm missing? Or how to go about making the ad's visible?

I'm not sure where it's supposed to show up on the page, but I've put the code into these area's:

Advertisement System (Forumbit Threadbit & Full page)
-Once on this option, the code is put into these box's: Forumbit advertisement code and Threadbit advertisement code

I also have the Google adsense code in here: Advertisement System (Posts, PMs & Announcements)

I did both of these, Yesterday, and one on Monday.

Sure. In example the readme says:

So, I opened the "header" template. At the end I already found the following code:

Ok I've found that the banners for the forumhome edits (the left and right columns) doesn't work correctly with the templates if your site have a fixed width. You have to use percentages otherwise it will distort the template no matter what style you use. Anyway to fix this?

by using <br><br> instead of the | it works the way I want it.

You really should try to do it yourself. It's a great learning experience. Turn off all other distractions, TV, Radio. Just go slow and read everything over and over if need be. Always save a copy of any templates you edit before you edit it. Once you get the hang of installing and editing things, it will come fast. Good luck.

Autorefresh is in each of the 3 Ad setups in vbulletin options, you have to have more than 1 ad code in the place you are going to use autorefresh, normallly when leaving a page and coming back to it (and you have multiple ad codes) the ad will "refresh" and rotate to the next, autorefresh does this rotation without having to refresh the page, don't forget to set the time between ads!

i can not find anything that mentions refresh in the ad options...

can you show me a screen shot and where i go to enable the option

Simon Lloyd

Sure, it appears in each of the 4 not 3 ad system options in vbulletin options.

yes you can here is a example ;
<a href="link1a"><img src="banner1a"><a href="link1b"><img src="banner1b"> |
<a href="link2a"><img src="banner2a">adsense adcode

I guess I will have to install it first to understand what you are showing me. I believe you are saying I will have to use this for each banner so if I have 5 banners on each side of a template I will have to source banner1a, banner2a etc or am I mistaken? Would banner1a be for all the banners in rotation in that spot?

Sorry if I am so confusing here. I can fairly easily just use php to get banners rotating but I am looking for a modification that will allow my clients to easily use the control panel to add there banners..

Honestly I would never suggest having more than one banner slow in any one template and especially in the header template but I cannot make these choices for people. With that said, I need a banner script that can easily allow me to place multiple banners spaces in a single template wikthout having to code in each new banner...

Thanks alot..

hi, got to say great add-on but theres one thing thats stopping me from enabling it.

When i add my advertisement codes for the header, it shows all right, but behind the banner is a white square and i was just wondering how i could make the width of it smaller to fit the size of my banners, or even still change it to black as i have a black forum.

thanks

Do you actually have slideshow code in?, you have to use this format for the slideshow:
slideshowcontent[0]=["banner1_link", "website1_link", "_new"]
slideshowcontent[1]=["banner2_link", "website2_link", "new"]
slideshowcontent[2]=["banner3_link", "website3_link", "new"]

[Update: Please disregard]

What about it?, what is it you are having trouble with?

When I placed in a lefthand verticle banner ad, the ad appeared just fine, but it squished the forum content and added a series of empty columns on the righthand side. I would estimate that the width ratio of forum content in the middle to empty columns on the right was even.

We are running a Transparencity variation, and have not had the left-right margins used before for anything, if that helps.

Another issue, which might have been addressed already, if so I apologize for not reading through all 500 posts: When I enable the refresh option for the header banner because otherwise it seems to be pretty static even between page changes), it moves the banner from center to the right, and there's just a blank banner appearing.

I've gone through the templates and added my forumlink before all the calls to the new PHP pages, but to no avail.

Any pointers appreciated.

** fixed 2 bugs in [left & right column ]

Curious what the difference is between an autorefresh and a simple rotation. Using 2.6, if I say 'No' to autorotation, the image banner is static between page requests. (It's a Google adSense banner). Shouldn't it be altered on occasion? People would get tired of seeing the same ad, I suppose.

Thanks!

10-20-2008, 02:52 PM
Is there a primer for ad placement somewhere I can read? I am new to placing ads, and have to wonder how they really work. I assumed that the ad provider is able to get different ads to my forum. Using this mod and Google's adSense, the banner ad never changes. Do each banner ads from Google contain one advertiser all the time? Do I need to get a series of same-size ads from Google and string them into the script box which this mod provides and then enable the auto-refresh? How exactly is it all supposed to work?

Turbe
10-20-2008, 07:08 PM
for "_new" it s target=_blank to open all ads in a new window and poeple cant leave your website so what the prb with that you can change it to target=_blank !


Slideshow options:

Is it supposed to be "_new" or "new"?

I see #0 is "_new" and #1 + are "new" in your example in Admin.

Also, what other options can be there?


How about an option to change delay per banner (or use default)?

i.e.
slideshowcontent[0]=["banner_image","banner_link","_new", 10000]
slideshowcontent[1]=["banner_image","banner_link","new", 0]
slideshowcontent[2]=["banner_image","banner_link","_new", 30000]
slideshowcontent[3]=["banner_image","banner_link","new", 5000]
slideshowcontent[4]=["banner_image","banner_link","_new", 0]
slideshowcontent[5]=["banner_image","banner_link","new", 0]

0 = default delay setting

Hello everyone!

I just installed this add-on, but I don't think it can achieve what my intention was. I would like to have right column of advertisements not just on my home page, but rather on every page of my forum. Is this at all possible? If this add-on cannot do it, is there another way for me to achieve it?

this will display the right column in all pages:


in in top of your footer template add :
$ad_rightcolumn_code



karim004, or anyone else willing to hep, when I implement the above, I see the advertisements on the bottom of my page, in the footer, instead of in right column. However, in archives the ads do display correctly in right column. How can I correct this?

karim004, I thank you very much. Now I see the right column on all pages. There is just a little aesthetic issue, as the right column is positioned in a slightly different location on my home page, a bit different location in forums/sub-forums, and again a little bit different location when I read individual threads.

I'll try to figure this one out myself. If I get stuck, I will come back for help.

Using the slideshow, we have 4 banner ads that we've added. Yesterday, having more than 1 ad in the slideshow worked fine. Now today, only 1 at a time will work, once I add in more, nothing shows up. And some of them don't show up if I put them in by themselves. This is what I'm using in slideshow:

My other problem is that when I attempted to put a banner ad under the navbar, I got what looks like a background picture of a gator & info on hosting. Hostgator is our host server, but I'm confused how that got on as a background image (it was not the banner I entered).

dont put the code in template navbar ! go to style manager , your style . edit templates : FORUMDISPLAY , showthread , MEMBERINFO ..............
add:
$ad_navbarBelow
below :
$navbar

Well, got this all installed and working yesterday, now suddenly we're having problems.

Using the slideshow, we have 4 banner ads that we've added. Yesterday, having more than 1 ad in the slideshow worked fine. Now today, only 1 at a time will work, once I add in more, nothing shows up. And some of them don't show up if I put them in by themselves. This is what I'm using in slideshow:

Hi Karim,

i'm still using the admanagment, today i tried to install this one.

Now for the moment i use banners in postbit example:

http://www.pc-helpforum.be/f16/vernieuwde-layout-nieuwe-partner-5559/

the blocks 'ook interessant' shows the banners.

Now i use Openads so my clients can change their banners themselfs. Now this is the code i use in admanagment and it works. But when i add it in this system it doensn't show up, only the last banner (no openads) is shown. The delimiter here was a |

rotation= adcodes separated by |
demo :
google adsense code
|
yahoo script
|
<a href="link1"><img src="banner1"></a>
|
<a href="link2"><img src="banner2"></a>

Sponsors adcode
Paste the code for your sponsors here. This time, instead of separating random sets of advertisement code, your delimiter is used to create a table. Each section of advertisement code between delimiters is one table cell. You can use conditionals and phrases, but not shared adcode.

Examples:
<img src="one.jpg" /> | Two | <img src="three.jpg" /> | <img src="four.jpg" /> | Five | <img src="six.jpg" />

If your sponsors per row setting were 3, this would create a table of two rows.


I tried what you said and it still stacks? ^^^^ How do i change the above? i dont
want the ads in the "Sponsors" box to stack. i would like them to rotote. Thanks! :D

Great that someone finally ported this.
I read the first 10 pages before giving up so if someone asked this question already, I apologize.
Is there any reason that you are not utilizing the already default vbulletin ad hook locations?
It just seems a bit redundant to create your own ad variables when placing them at an already existent variable location

$ad_location[ad_header_end] === $ad_headerEnd
$ad_location[ad_header_logo] === $ad_headerLogo
$ad_location[ad_footer_start] === $ad_footerStart
$ad_location[ad_footer_end] === $ad_footerEnd
$template_hook[postbit_end] === $ad_postbit_below
$ad_location[ad_navbar_below] === $ad_leftcolumn_code
$ad_location[ad_footer_start] === $ad_rightcolumn_code


That would solve all template editing except for 3 being your forumbit and threadbit
but Im sure there may be a hook there also.
So you could simplify this Mod by using the default hook variables or by eval()
to hook each location with your own templates.
example:

eval('$ad_location[ad_header_end] .= "' . fetch_template('ad_headerEnd') . '";');


If you need help with template hooks and hook locations for plugins, you can PM me.

I am having a little bit of problems with my header ad.

I have it currently configured only to display to unregistered user group IDs. It is set NOT to display to all registered user group IDs. When I do this, all of the other ads (threadbit, postbit etc.) work fine except for the header ad.

Now, when I remove the specific user ID settings (for show and do not show) the ad displays fine.

Also, when i have specific user settings it has a big space where the banner should be, but no ad. Its strange, any ideas?

My site is www.necrotalk.com so you can see it for yourself, there is a blank spot at the top below the home | user cp etc. buttons.

That file shows you where eg.
1=upload the 4 files in folder upload to your forum folder

2= import the product-advertisement
*** Header : 2 edits

1= at the end add : $ad_headerEnd

All the instructions are there, you can then adjust some of the areas to have titles, take a look at http://www.thecodecage.com at the bottom of the page you will see "The Code Cage Affiliates" instead of "The Code Cage Advertisments"

You will see in the Advertising System options (VBulletin options) something like this limit who sees the ads:
Do NOT display Postbit advertisements to Usergroups:
IDs of the usergroups who will not see the Postbit advertisements, separated by |
Just add the usergroups id who you do not wish to see the ads, there is also something similar below to explicitly show the ads to certain groups.

You will see at my site http://www.thecodecage.com/forumz that you can see the ads but other members who belong to different usergroups see ads in different places to you the unregistered user.

Newsoftw, which templates did you edit? and with what? Try turning the Autorefresh off in the Advertisement system (if you use autorefresh for google it could get your google account disabled!).

Can i suggest something for a future version?
Maybe u can provide an Autorefresh for all location (example right/left columns?)
It would be interesting because i have some advertisers and would like to rotate the banners.

And maybe a option where you can set the time to change the banners? Or can this be done? example 10 seconds?

Thanks,

There is already an option to set banner timing in VBulletin Options>Advertisment System Settings & Slide Show:
PAUSE BETWEEN BANNERS
SET PAUSE BETWEEN BANNERS
enter 3000 if you want pause each banner 3 secondes .
Error:
1
animation speed
enter 10 for 10 secondes . Greater is faster.

The banners in left and right column can be rotated by adding more ad code to those locations seperated by a | (Ctrl+\)

I cannot seem to get the ads to display on PMs. I reviewed all the template edits, but I don't know which one is suppose to make it work there. I have the option enabled in the CP.

Any ideas?

Simon Lloyd

So in the Advertisement System (Posts, PMs & Announcements) you have added some ad code and enabled this option "Display advertisements with private messages?
Choose Yes to have advertisements display with private messages. Yes No"

It works fine for me, if you want to see it working join me here The Code Cage (http://www.thecodecage.com) then pm me and i will pm back!

Hi guys.

I have installed this thing. and I also have registered on AdBrite and Google Adsence but I don't know where to put the codes.

Where do I put the AdBrite's full page ads codes? and where do I put the google's ads codes (I want it to be under every first post).

Thanks

Simon Lloyd
12-03-2008, 04:16 AM
Firstly, check the terms of service for google and adbrite, i believe you cannot display both on the same page. The ad code is pasted in VBulletin Options > Advertisement System (Forumbit Threadbit & Full page)

Is it possible to enable the right column also on the forumdisplay and topics?
i think its just adding the $ad_rightcolumn_code in the templates, but i'm not sure where

ok, stupid question time:

Where do you go to see the Full Page Advertisement on the forum, I know where to set up in the admin cp ... but can't see for the life of me where on the actual forum you would see this?..

Any ideas?

Thank you :)

You will see in the Advertising System options (VBulletin options) something like this limit who sees the ads:
Do NOT display Postbit advertisements to Usergroups:
IDs of the usergroups who will not see the Postbit advertisements, separated by |
Just add the usergroups id who you do not wish to see the ads, there is also something similar below to explicitly show the ads to certain groups.

Because most likely your webmaster had the same problem just about everybody in this thread had. The instructions for the template edits are useless. They make no sense. He/she has to make the template edits, otherwise this mod won't work.

If you read the posts in this thread you will see that i have been explanitory, and the reason for givening my site is not to PIMP but to allow folk to see what can be acheived on a live board. If you have read the posts and not been able to understand the "rudementary" instructions i have given then you're going to have trouble.

Sorry i've not been of any help to you!

Thank you and I appreciate the fact you know where to put everything.

But......

As stated in my prior post, the instructions make no sense. Flipping through the 50 or so pages here I see I'm not the only one who doesn't understand how the developers instructions are set.

All I want is for the instructions to be laid out so people can understand them. I'm pretty secure in understanding hoe the ACP and the mod is supposed to look and work. It's the templates configuration changes I can't figure out.

If your header template is unchanged then it should look like this in 3.7.4 PL1, i have made bold and magenta the line you are looking for.

Hi, I'm really insterested in your help, but not your site. It seems you're more interested in pimping the site rather than helping to explain the very rudementary instructions.

You might consider asking for help in a fashion that is not seem like you are whining or complaining about free code and free support, you might find people are more receptive to help you. It also does help if you read the instructions carefully as going through 50 pages of forum posts sure sounds like a waste of time.

Because most likely your webmaster had the same problem just about everybody in this thread had. The instructions for the template edits are useless. They make no sense. He/she has to make the template edits, otherwise this mod won't work.

They make perfect sense to me. Its just like every other mod that requires a template edit. You have to do them in the Admincp if you have never dealt with a template mod before.

See that's the problem. I don't have the second part.....the code. It's neither in my header nor my forum home templates. I have 3.7.4 PL1

Right, its in your Admincp > Styles & Templates > Style Manager > Select "Edit Templates" from the dropdown menu > double click on the "header" template found in the list.

You will see the code editor open up and this is where you ad your mods.

I think you misunderstand what I ask. I'm not whining and I am indeed thanking Simon Lloyd for showing us how the adverts should look. However, from all his initial reply I still didn't see anything technical.

Mr Simon Lloyd has understood what I said and has responded again and I thank him.

It isn't that I don't know how to use the scripts/code/or mods, I have customized virtually my entire infrastructure. The part I don't understand is the instructions supplied. I've never before seen instructions like this and it makes no sense to me. I don't understand what he direct to additionally configure.

Instructions are normally in a text file like this:obviously everybody does things differently so I was asking for somebody to maybe put the instructions in the order most mods instructions look like (BELOW)

Step 1 - In "HEADER Template"

Find:

here is my code, this is the code to look for.........yada yada

Under - add:

Here is my new code, this is what I am showing to add to the existing code
--------------------------------------------

Step 2 - In "FORUMHOME Template

Find:


And so on and so on.......etc
