vb.org Archive - Miscellaneous Hacks - Rotating Banner System

I have all the banners working now except flash banners.
I have flash banner check marked
I have the banner width set to 400
I have the banner height set to 50
I have the dates set correctly

Here is the flash that I am trying to display.

Thank you

I had to check mark "Flash Banner: embed Tag".

I agree the way that pdf manual was written it will fly right over the heads of many users. It needs a "Quick setup" on page 1 that tells you to simply:

Go to AdminCP>Advertising>Add new Ad
Click "Above Footer", name the ad "RBS 0 Above Footer" and paste this into the Ad HTML box: "<div align="center"></div>"
Hit Save.

... then continue with setting up your first non-flash simple test banner. At this point there's so much confusion I think a test banner or two - simple .jpgs - should probably just be included.

You do a lot of good work on this mod. If you need help, just ask. But I only run simple banners myself so I'd be useless trying to help anyone get Flash working.

thanks videx, that information I'm sure will be most helpful, now I just have to figure out what is going on with my advertisement section of the AdminCP, everytime I click on manage ads, or add new ad, it simple shows a blank page, and when I try to navigate to another part of the admincp, the blank page persists to the point where I have to reload the page....fun stuff. Thanks again, I'll let you know when its up and running.

Blank pages may be caused also from failing to load external content, such as java-script contents from advertising servers.

Hi everyone,

I feel like such a noob, I uploaded the files via FTP then went into my admin cp and add/import plugins. However I get this error:
Please upload the files that came with the product before installing or upgrading!

Missing files: (It says nothing here!)

Can anyone point me in the right direction of whats going wrong!

Many Thanks
