www.tooraktimes.com.au thanks Videx sorry to be so daft...just enquiring really if you reckon its good to go for 4.2.1...I have a 24yo developer hassling me, she can't figure the settings...guess I'll pull out the whip

Toorak: Same thing I just said - telling us nothing but "it doesn't work" really doesn't enable anyone to do anything for you. At the very least give us a link and assure us plain vb ads are working and that you don't have any large mods installed like vbadvanced or xxx that might be interfering.

xxx==Right now I can't think of the name of that big one that seems to break everything.

rbs_banner.php would be there only if click tracking is enabled. The kind of banners I see, are exclusively AdSense ...

Interesting. Maybe that should be part of the troubleshooting process. "Make sure 'click tracking' is turned on for your test banner and then rbs_banner.php should appear in your page source."

Hi, no I didn't
First I remove all the banners and tried to put them whith the rotating system banner. But I could'n make it work, so I used the admincp/advertizing opcion to put the banner that you saw.

Hi all,

First of all, thanks for the developer for this great mod.

It works fine in most screens, however when the resolution gets smaller, my banner overlaps with my logo. My website is: www.supercoachscores.com. As you can see on most monitor resolution it's fine, however for older computers or mobile phones (in non-mobile format), it goes out of whack.

I tried using <div width=100% etc etc> rather than the absolute width in px, I then used in the banner css width at 55% instead of absolute value. Thus from my understanding, this should have converted to a lower px due to using percentages.

On my laptop, in IE, Chrome and Firefox, it looks all good, but when others look at it, it looks out of place.

Thanks in anticipation

Jay

Here, as an unofficial addon, you get the autorefreshing page (tested). It needs:

- a text editor;
- a refresh time of your choice (see metatag refresh in file, now at 10 seconds);
- a banner location (see placeholder in file, now at position 0);
- at least a banner for that location;
- a global target of a new page aka _blank (RBS options), else you jump into the iframe;
- a template modification for a 468x60 banner:

HTML Code:

<iframe src="rbs_iframe.php" align="center" frameborder="0" height="60" width="468" scrolling="no"></iframe>

Please note: with smaller banners you get white borders, with larger than the iframe area, they are clipped.

it shunts my forum tab down a little is there any way to not have it do that

and it does this either way i code it when i shrink my screen or on smaller screen sizes
any way to stop it doing this?!

Hello and thanks for this great mod.
Anyway, I have a small problem on my 4.2.1 vBulletin forum: the attached images are covered by the banners like you can see bellow. This happen on IE9 and Chrome. On Firefox it is OK.

What kind of banner is this? If it is a scripted banner, it may need adjusting the z-order. However I'm not a great help in CSS/HTML ...

Try a style attribute with "margin: 10px;"

Most probably you will have to create dedicated banners for mobile ... the high number of different formats and reduced HTML/CSS support on old devices can't be universally translated.
