Okay, I might sound like a nub here, but I have used this mod in the past (3.7 board). I am having issues getting a banner to appear ANYWHERE..

I currently have this code in my Navbar, at the bottom: <center>@vbbanners@</center>

And that is all that appears below my navbar (centered)..

And I take it that is what you use for position 0???

If I want to use position 2, is this what I do - @vbbanners:2@??

Is there a master 'Enable' button somewhere that I missed??

Or maybe it is late and I am cold LOL

Thanks !!

That's about where I got confused, too. :o

You need to place the code into the templates as follows:

... etc.

Include the <! -- and --> tags.

When I include the <!-- and -->, the code completely disappears.. Nothing happens

<center><!--@vbbanners:2@--></center> is the code I am using

BTW, I set position of banner to 2, so I used @vbbanners:2@, enabled, I set the destination, copied my html code for the banner into the text box, placed the image url in there ect ect... And I placed the code at the very bottom of the Navbar template, right after the </vb:if>

Can I use Ad Location templates instead??

Yes you can and they work better. With some templates, it's easy to misplace the ad and mess up the page opr lose the ad.

Yiu can also use the new Advertising feature in the ACP for 4.x... avoid the ones for the header because they're buggy but the others work fine.

At the moment, I'm using all three methods

Please see this tutorial which shows how to implement your first banner with version 2.2.2 of this product. It also shows exactly where and how to setup an alternative placeholder, and gives a demonstration of erratic and fixed insertion of placeholders.

Tytyty !!!

I can get the adsense working now, but images, no.. Is there a bug somewhere in 4.0.1 that messes with this?? I am working on a business forum with heavy advertisments in it. I am still not impressed with 4 as I am with 3.8.4..

Does this mod work better in 3.8.x??

It works the same way as with any version from 3.6.5 onwards. Should I make a tutorial for image banners too? :)
