View Full Version : Static ad on one forum?

I have a sponsor for one of my forums and I would like to keep their logo right below the "Below Navbar" banner ad area but again only on the one forum. I'm running VB 4.1.1
I use Adpeeps to deliver my ads if that helps at all.
I've found several ways to do this but most are either too complicated for me (sorry I know that sounds pathetic) or they require installing a full banner system which I don't need. Surely there is a way to add this simple graphic, correct?
Thanks

Are you using the Advertising area in the admincp to add the ad to your site? If so, just put a condition around the code in the in Ad HTML box:
<vb:if condition="$GLOBALS['forumid'] == x">ad only in forumid x</vb:if>

Yes Lynne I was using the advertising section of the admincp. I'm not a programmer at all and I know I should probably get one to help with problems like this. Is the code you provided here exactly what I use, with the exception of chaing the forumid to the proper number? Thank you for your help.
BTW, I did a lot of searching for help with this and found that many people have asked before and most never received an answer that worked for them. Sounds like vbulletin may want to find a way to add more options when it comes to advertising. JMO.
BTW2, I was able to get this working by using adpeeps targeting and then using the code in the same HTML box you were referring to.
