vb.org Archive - Miscellaneous Hacks - Rotating Banner System

Anyway to use this as a rotation function in the Sidebar (Forum Block)? I've been playing around with it, and I can't quite figure out how to set a custom placement into a Forum Block.

Any thoughts?

Thanks !!

Il believe sidebars are generated with widgets (?). In this case it may be necessary to create a HTML or PHP widget with a banner placeholder. I can't tell though, it's a designer issue ... :)

Admin CP > Advertising > Manage ads / Add New Ad > Global Below Navbar

I can't get this to show up in a CMS widget, Do i need to use a static html widget? and do i just put @vbbanners:%d@ in it??

I have vbseo installed, I've changed the place holder as per the PDF but still can't get it to work.

I realize this is an older post but I see nobody has replied.

In Styles & Templates, select the navbar template for your style.

Look for this code..

Code:

{vb:raw ad_location.ad_navbar_below}

{vb:raw ad_location.global_below_navbar}

Copy those two lines and then look for this code..

Code:

</div><!-- closing div for above_body -->



<div class="body_wrapper">

Then paste what you copied between the two lines above like this..

Code:

</div><!-- closing div for above_body -->



{vb:raw ad_location.ad_navbar_below}

{vb:raw ad_location.global_below_navbar}



<div class="body_wrapper">

Then delete the original lines you copied. The ads will now be between the header and body of the forum.

I'm about to upgrade from 2.2.6. to 2.3.1.
Will all my settings and click counters be reset during the upgrade?

Probably this ... I suppose widgets are normally cached or use different rendering (no idea).

I found out using the  code will work in the vB Advertising program.

It didn't prior, but for some reason it is now working. I am using the BETA 4.1.2 MS. This may have something to do with it working properly in the advertisement section. It's much better when you don't have to edit code.
