"Anywhere" may be a bit optimistic, but that is the general idea. There are lots of examples throughout the thread.

Please backup the rbs_* tables so you may roll back ... however, if updating wasn't working, people would have killed me already. Backups are always a good idea :)

Eventually you may use the banner system in vb5 by using iframes and the addon example code, and using a normally hidden copy of your old vb4 forums somewhere (e.g. a protected folder). Not very elegant, but it may be an option. In any case, the time is arriving where I have more time ...

cool sounds a bit to complicated for me so lucky you have the brains for it, i will attempt the update this weekend, your hack was the only one that didn't give an error with the upgrade to 4.2.2 :)

Great job, thank you

I sorta get the placeholder thing, but how do these positions reflect on the ad positions in the Advertising Admincp.

Or do I have to somehow put a placeholder in these positions in the Advertising (i do NOT know what I'm talking about, trying to understand)

Are there instructions on how to use the add on? Cheers

As with many mods, instructions are included in the download. Also as with many mods, don't bother trying to figure it out 100% before trying it; it will all make more sense once you get ONE banner rotating. Then you can add others if you really need them.

In many cases, such as our forum, the fact that the ads rotate in ONE place is all we need. I have never used a second placeholder (though I have placeholder 0 in a few different places).

:up:

okay another stupid question !

can we use this in a widget or forum block ?

yes :)
