yes :)

We have discussed this problem several times, and essentially there is a timing difference between the local time of the web server and the MySQL server. Since MySQL runs as root and Apache not always, there may be time zone differences. Best of all is to make sure that these differences do not exist, alternatively adjust the time zone of the web server in order to match the system time. Also, your system should not change time due to DST, but at most the time zone for their user accounts. And, of course, you should use NTP to sync date and time frequently.

In any case, this information is only for system administrators and it is really, "really" the last time I will ever mention it :)

So what does that mean, this product will not work in photopost? Or is there a way to make it work we must have banners in that section

I agree, getting this to work in Photopost would be great, is there a way, or are there plans for this?

Awesome, thank you. Installing in a few

Y2ksw, thank you for the explanation, I did search but did not realize that was applicable to the problem. I am not too computer savvy as far as servers and timing go, so once again thanks for taking the time to explain it.

What you explain makes sense to me as far as their being a difference, but it befuddles me as to how this would cause the time to continuously change each time I viewed it, each time increasing 2 hrs, I have other plugins that use timing and seem not to be affected, but I know your busy so no need to elaborate on that one I shall continue to live in ignorance of such...lol

thanks
tim

If somebody would have success and share their experience ...

But unless then, the banners will not work in photopost, because photopost does not use the standard final page rendering.

There is no plan to make it work for photopost. I am sorry, but I'm personally against hacking into software just because somebody hasen't used standard procedures as reccomended.

Does anyone know which template and where to add of I wanted the banner to show up on left or right side of my forums ?

You may create a sidebar block for a banner.

If you however want to add a free space inside the page area, you must change a lot of pages, and maybe the everywhere sidebar is a better solution.

You may also try to add a background image via CSS, but I doubt it would work with this product, both because styles may be cached locally by your browser and maybe the templates are not passing through the last rendering process, because cached by vBulletin itself.

Yes I want to add the banner on as a side bar and not sure how to do this, I cant use the everywhere sidebar hack because that is for vb 4.x series and we are using vb 3.8 series

I am regularily failing HTML ... anyone? :)

Do you have a german translation??

Does anyone know how I can add two banners side by side but inside a table?
If I just use this @vbbanners:0@@vbbanners:0@ and then I start to shrink my browser size the banners start overlapping each other, I want these banners to be fixed next to each other regardless of the size of my browser size.

Any help doing this?

No, sorry.

Tables usually have the <td> tags for columns, but they must match in all rows. Eventually you also will need to use the span attribute.

At this site you may learn all about HTML :)

Can you provide an example on how to wrape this into a table

HTML Code:

---

<table>
<tr>
<td style="min-width:XXXpx">@vbbanners:0@</td><td style="min-width:XXXpx">@vbbanners:0@</td>
</tr>
</table>

---

Then just set "XXX" to whatever minimum width you want the banners to be. You can also add additional styling such as "max-width", or "width", then possibly "padding" etc. to get the exact look and spacing you want.

So. Anyone solved the Photopost issue?
I desperatly need it and are willing to pay for a solution.
y2ksw any chanse i could pay you to have a look at it?

I've never used Photopost, but I have Photopost Classifieds and if it's the same deal it's not really a vbulletin mod at all, it's a separate script that just imports the vb styles so the page looks like part of your forum.

Actually i have the Classifieds to.
And according to the developer it shoud work. The standard VB banners work fine.
Everything from the header and so on is used in Photopost.

If not.
Doers anyone know of a simple random banner mod? I need one banner with like 6 random images...

Oh, sorry I missed that. You may want to start over again or at least link to your last post so we don't have to go digging for it.

Obvious question if a standard banner works: What type of banners are you trying that don't work? Flash or something? And can we assume when you say "standard banners work" you also mean RBS works fine outside Photopost? If not you need to get that fixed first. Make sure there's no compatibility problems with other mods (e.g. VBAdvanced).

I have no banners what so ever from RBS in Photopost.
But RBS is working fine in my form and CMS.
However, If you look at the photopost guys website he is using the VB adverticement stuff and that works for him.
So its not only using the vb styles.
Thats why i hope it would be possible to get RBS working in Photopost without a big effort.

OK I ended up with this code however when I reduce the size of my browser the banners dont adjust themself to the size of the foum so they overlap the edge of the forum. Any idea what I need to add to have the banners resize as I reduce the size of the browser window

Yes that is my exact same problem.. I have photopost intergration and its enheriting the headers and footer from VB except the banners from RBS wont display only shows this @vbbanners:0@ where the banner should be

I fear this would become a pretty complicated hack, also from what I have read right now about photopost. Most probably it would become a source code modification in order to render the banners.

If however "other" banners work, try to use the unsupported iframe solution, which would enable you to show at least the banners as if they were working ... please see here: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....&postcount=989

This is however not a true banner rotating solution and you will also have to do some coding.

If you want me to do this, please take in account that I probably will not have time until mid August this year.

And it works!
Thanks y2kw!

It's always nice to hear that something works :)

I have an issue using when adding the banner code to the Ad Location Templates-ad_navbar_below the banners show up fine except in the wrong location. If I click on a thread the banner is located below the thread title and not under the navbar.

It looks like this

--------------Navbar----------------------
--------------Thread Title--------------
--------------Banner---------------------

I want this

--------------Navbar----------------------
--------------Banner---------------------
--------------Thread Title--------------

Most probably you will have to modify the header template directly instead of the ad_* templates.

how do i cutomise the rbs_stats.php file?

I tried editing in a text editor and changing a few things (like renaming the unwanted results section), however, when I save and upload the file, the customisations are not seen.

It is odd because when I rename the file, it doesn't work, so it is definitely using that file, but my customisations do not show.

can anyone please help?

maybe refreshing the page? some browsers store the page content in the local cache.

banner not showing on 4.2.1

Just noted something strange. Only the bottom 16 pixels of my banners in the header section are linked, the top part of the banner is not linked.
Any idea why that is?
See http://www.2cv.com.au/ for the problem.

for me it works.

Just solved my problem: I added this code to the style of the ad placeholder:

Works for me too.

Excellent mod - this is just what I have been searching for - I now have rotating ads in between posts and the bottom nav bar

Thanks for all your continued work on this Y2KSW. It's appreciated alot!! (Donation will be on it's way shortly)

Hello all
