Hi Giovanni,

Is it possible to make a small addon, so little thumbnails of image banners show up on admin_rbs_banner_list.php ?

It would be such a huge timesaver, because when you have to go through dozens of banners, having a visual right there would help immensely.

Nevertheless, I appreciate the time you took to build this magnificent plugin. It works flawlessly.

Thanks.

I am embarrassed to post this but I think of myself as a somewhat intelligent person but for some reason, I cannot grasp this.

Please be patient with me and maybe you can find what I am missing....

What are the "Position # Banner Lists" for?
Nth Placeholder...where do I put that?

Maybe it will be easier this way...

I have 4 banners I want to have in the "Below Nav Bar" Location...

What do I do next?

I think if you walk me through it, everything will click.

Let's say that the banners images are on my server at www.myforum.com/banners

The four banners are: abc.gif 123.jpg asdf.gif qwerty.jpg

I hope you can feel my pain and confusion on this.

Thanks,
John:confused:

Well at least we have an error message! :)

Presumably you uploaded the files to the wrong place. If you're going to run a forum you've got to be a lot more careful about that. Try it again.

Hint: Just rename the "upload" folder to "forum" (or whatever your forum folder is named), then drop it on your public_html folder. Saves you having to try to place each file separately.

Or, you have the files uploaded to the right place, but your web server has no rights to access.

This may happen on Linux, when your FTP account differs from Apache. You may fix this from the shell with root rights and requires a pretty good knowledge how to configure the FTP server.

Enable the flash wrapper, specify in Image/Flash your swf (as above), in URL the landing page and don't forget the sizes and at least one option: embed or object or both :)

I'm also having the same problem, I have renamed the folder like the post above but still no joy. I would really like to get this working, If anyone can help.

Let's do the other way round ... where is your forum located?

Move with FTP to the folder where you find the forum.php file which actually launches your forum (no redirects please).

Then, move into the upload folder of the extracted package (you have it unzipped, right?). Select all files and folders there and copy to the FTP destination. With Filezilla you do this pretty neat and no hassle. For upgrading make sure you "overwrite" the files on destination.

Done :)

However: If your FTP account rights differ from the Webserver Account, it may not work and then you'll need to do the beatings of your hosting provider ;)
