Modification:

Instead of the banners just sending the people who click on them to your forum. Take advantage of the referral system and have the link in the banner the referral code of the member.

Chane This: (in LinkMe.php - Line 58)
To This:

Then they will be credited with anyone who signes up via the banners!!

Cheres

installed and get the following error:

Warning: getimagesize(): Read error! in /home/fragtrad/public_html/forums/LinkMe.php on line 34

Line 34 has the following:
$info = getimagesize($bild);

This is the url to the page:
http://www.fragtraders.com/forums/LinkMe.php

Also index.html is listed on that page as well?????

Hi,

i do not see any error message on your page. But if you get this error message you should be missing an add-on to calculate imagesizes.

Cheers,

got it all going...great hack.

The Banners arent shown with Firefox 1.0 here. With IE i can see em all.

Take a Test here:

http://www.board-insel.de/werbung.php

Is ist my failure?

I tried it with IE 6 and Mozilla and FireFox 0.9.2 and i can see all your banners. Anyone else who has FireFox 1.0 can give it a try on vau7's site please?

Cheers,

How mysterious...
I cant explain, but i have modified your Script a little bit and added an Option for BBcode additional to the HTML-Source...

Hi vau7,

if FireFox 1.0 doesn't show the banners, that you changed something which is not FireFox confirmative. I will update my FireFox to 1.0 and give it a try. Perhaps it is a problem in my script and not due to your changes. I will come back to you with some feedback.

[offtopic]This is the community of my wife. She is the cat fanatic person. :-) [/offtopic]

Cheers,

My wife ist the motor of the catism @ our Home, too ;)

Some more strangieness:

If i this Url in my sig on some Boards (certainly in img-tags):
"http://www.board-insel.de/images/banners/werbung5.gif", from the folder of your hack i can see it in every Browser expect the Firefox 1.0.

Really mad.

I've looked in Firefox 1.0 and it shows fine.

Thanks Peterska2. So it should be a problem of his custom FireFox? Perhaps reinstall FireFox?

Cheers,

I think so as I have this working on my site and I only use firefox

Okay, then ist everything perfect. Perhaps something with the extensions...

Now one of my Co-Admins found the Problems there was a missing closing font tag in the Template:

Hi,

in my template? Or in your modification? Because other people can see it with FireFox.

Cheers,

Yes, this above is your original code. And it isnt XHTMl-conform becaus auf the tags like <BR> instead of <br />.
I am no coder i just give you the things my co-admin told me.

Yes, but you can easy change the missing slashes to get XHTML conform. This is not your problem with your Firefox. My Firefox also shows me my LinkMe.php with images and also without XHTML capabilities.

Yes sure, this was ana additional info.

Now i've closed the missing font-tag i can see the images, too.

Ok. This is sick... the ideas in my head for this one is out of control. All I ask is this. How can I set it up for a person... when they copy the code their referal link is in the html? AND (whhahhahahahahaaaaa) If they are a guest it takes them to my intro page about my site... that link is here...

Hello T3media,

I did not implement the referral solution into my hack. Some people on this forum have done this and posted their solution in this hack thread. Perhaps they can help you here.

Cheers,

i get extra slashes any ideas why?

Then you did not enter your path correctly. Check the path in the php file.

Cheers,

excellent mod! Saves you alot of time and all the extra hussle... thanks Pseudomizer :)

Ok i sorted that thanks :)
What i would like to request though is you make it so you have the link back like you already have and then you also add the VBB code beneath that so for example i want to add the code to my signature in the many many forums i go to. I simply copy and paste it and then there ya go im there.

<IMAGE>

<HTML CODE>

<VBB CODE>

I have looked at the code and it seems it wouldnt take much to change this and may have a go myself tonight
thanks
.matt

thanks for the nice hack gonna install it on my forums, hope it helps bring new members :)

Depends on the quality of your banners. ;-) Good luck.

Cheers,

thanks for this hack. it made my affliates links that much better. easy for folks to link back to us.

Does this work with 3.0.7? I get errors.

Warning: opendir(./images/banners): failed to open dir: No such file or directory in /LinkMe.php on line 24

Warning: readdir(): supplied argument is not a valid Directory resource in /LinkMe.php on line 25

Warning: asort() expects parameter 1 to be array, null given in /LinkMe.php on line 28

Nevermind, I got it. Had to change dirs

This is great! Thanks...

I am just having one small problem. The thumbnail image is not showing up..

Thanks again,

Rich

I would love to see this for v3.5!

Does anyone know if you can also add the option for textlinks, as well as the banners, i have cant work out how to mod the code to do this,

anyone able to help..

thanks

ditto.

Agreed

ye, same here. can it be done ?

I'll second everybody here :D
Sounds to be an awesome hack but need to be turned into vb3.5 compatible :)

By the way, thumb up for the good work.

Any chance this is going to happen? it would be nice to put this back on our 3.5 board since it worked so well for our older forum :)

Hello, do you have this for 3.5? I upgraded my site and now it does not work anymore :(
