Works great!

I'd like to move this into the header and have 3 static banners using this add on and one rotating banner (other code) is this possible? Thanks!

I just installed it in 3.6.8. Everything seems to be working fine. :up:

I do have one question though...
I am not experienced in coding at all... and my programming knowledge is ZILCH, so excuse my ignorance on this.

I've spent a better part of a couple days searching for a way to relocate the banner to a different part of the forum page. I did read where it is only a matter of placing the code in my navbar wherever I see fit... but I just don't know how to do that correctly without having it pretty much "spelled out" like I've seen with some other code listed here (add "this" below "this line", etc...)

As in... exactly what block of code do I need to retrieve after the install, and where exactly do I place it if I wanted to place this banner to sit directly below my main Header Banner instead of the default location set for this hack?

Thanks in advance,

~Steve

Hello Zacariah,

I want to know if this adds banner image to all the forums?

Or is it possible to say add this particular banner image to this particular forum?

Like banner1.jpg in forum id 1
Banner2.jpg in forumid 5

So that we display banners relevant to each forum.

Please do let me know. Thanks. Great work!

Thanks. I am amazed at the power of this community.

Everything I seem to think of is here somewhere!

I am also amazed at how reliable these products are. I would normally expect that there would be nasty surprises. None at all so far in 20 installs :) :up:

Mine keeps coming up as a forum link. When I click the link the banner shows on the thread and is active.

Any ideas?

Thank you, Ted

image2.jpg @ http://www.yoursite2.com
image3.jpg @ http://www.yoursite3.com

Code:

<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">

<!-- 

function banner() { 

}; 



banner = new banner(); 

number = 0; 



// bannerArray 

banner[number++] = "<a href='http://www.yoursite1.com' target='_blank'><img src='/banners/image1.jpg' alt='' border='0' /></a>"

banner[number++] = "<a href='http://www.yoursite2.com' target='_blank'><img src='/banners/image2.jpg' alt='' border='0' /></a>"

banner[number++] = "<a href='http://www.yoursite3.com' target='_blank'><img src='/banners/image3.jpg' alt='' border='0' /></a>" 

 

// keep adding items above here... 



increment = Math.floor(Math.random() * number); 

document.write(banner[increment]); 



//-->

</script>

Useage: If you need more banners edit / add another row.

Code:

banner[number++] = "<a href='http://www.yoursite1.com' target='_blank'><img src='/banners/image1.jpg' alt='' border='0' /></a>"

Link of Destination
Image location

Nice peace of code , thanks for sharing your knowledge :)

to solve this, i made a custom html code ( a table in the box custom html code)

Anyway, an option to aply all banners in child forums could be nice ^^

Great mod :).

Would like to know if it's possible to add the banners to the main forum page above each of my main forums?

You mention placing these in the header template without the use of conditionals would be a pretty simple task. Would you mind holding our hands through that? I"ve been trying to get this done for AGES and it looks like your mod alone has gotten me 95% of the way.

OH SO CLOSE!

I've been searching through the FORUMDISPLAY and SHOWTHREAD templates for the code that pulls in the template add_banner. Its not under $navbar, so I checked out $navbar thinking it was globally being pulled over but still no luck. Obviously the template add_banner is in, but it get's pulled those two templates is something I'm struggling width.

Any clues - cause my head is hurting.;-)

Sussed it....Helps if you actually ready the details in the install. Works nice.

For those wanting to use this with OpenX I would highly recommend it. Also its not very difficult to create a duplicate script that will allow you to run two or multiple set's of ad's throughout the forum. Very nice work indeed.

OpenX will achieve this and far more if plugged you just use the java code invocation within the code part of the forum manager. Yes you run another database and have to install it. But it offers far more flexibility.

Works great with my 3.7.1 and after market skin. This rocks; Thanks Zachariah!!!

Working well here with 3.7.2.

I did notice on small thing. Apparently if you do not have a banner defined for a given forum, it creates an uncached template now (addbanner if memory serves). I don't recall that in the past. This is true, even if the banner is "off" for that forum.

Please keep up the good work and keep this add on compatible with vBulletin! Nothing else comes close to it for this specialized purpose. I'll be sending a donation soon. =)

I have a lot of ideas and changes in mind for this.
I need to get some time to add them.
