I'll keep playing with it to see if I can get it working. Otherwise, no doubt someone else will come up with a 4.x banner rotator sooner than 4.1...

Well, the good news is, it works in 4.0.1, too. I've tried it right now on a fresh installation 4.0.0 and upgraded to 4.0.1 :)

Let us rewind and see what else may have caused the problem ...

I upgraded from 3.84 PL2 to 4.01 How do we do that? I disabled all add-ons before upgrading and then disabled the hook system. After the upgrade, tuirned the hooks back on and re-enabled the add-ons one by one, checking for error in between. For any add-on that produce an error, I uninstalled it.

This add-on does not result in any errors. I just doesn'r result in any banners either.

If it helps to diagnose, I cannot get anything to display in the "before quick reply" location even using vBulletin's own manually insert ads templates. I've been assuming that's a still unfixed bug in 4.01 (there are a LOT of those).

Yeah, first we have to make sure you show anything else of course, before to blame any plugin ... if you put an 'X' in an ad template and it does not show up, anything else won't either :)

I'm about to release 2.2.2, which adds some of the frequently asked features and which was fully tested on 4.0.1, too. The reason why it still works on 4.x is the fact it does not use any own variables within templates, and because I'm lucky enough to have chosen this road ;)

Nope.

I installed your new version using overwrite. No banners.

I completely ininstalled the add-on. Then re-installed it. Still no banners.

When I installed the newest version, two ACP menu itmes weren't phrases (see attachment).

I guess I neede to try to find another solution. Pity. This one worked well in 3.84.

Most probably you will have to uninstall the Rotating Banners Product and install again to get rid of the unwanted text.

I uploaded the new 2.2 and over wrote each existing file. Then uninstalled the current product and reinstalled the new 2.2 in english but still getting some other language on about 4 lines. Most are english though.

Nevermind, went through and reverted the phrases and everything is ok.

You didn't upgrade the files ;)

The XML for the menues is twice as large now, due to about 12 new entries. Probably also the other files are not upgraded.

Please check you are actually replacing the files on your server. Some FTP require to first delete and then upload the files in order to upgrade.

Confirmed, works great in 4.0.1. No template editing needed either. Just use the built in advertising system and paste e.g.
PHP Code:

<center><!--@vbbanners:0@--></center

in the box. I added one at the top and one at the bottom, rotating my ads.
