Hi guys,

I've searched through pages of this mod, but can't seem to find an answer.

I would like to be able to place an add in the right hand column, but can't seem to find the template to do it... Can anybody help?

It's the only reason that I haven't converted my forum to vb4 as I'm still using vbadmanagement as it seems to work.

This looks much better, but need to be able to work out how to display the add correct. Could I use the new Forum Blocks with this code?

My website is http://www.ozaudi.com, you can see what I am trying to achieve...

UPDATE I've managed to get it to work in one of my new forums (www.ozbmw.com) that is running on VB4.0.2....

However, if I use the VB Blocks, the user can close them and that's not ideal. So still after any help with what template could be used for a right hand column (hopefully to sit where the current blocks are).

In order to ad a column to the standard layout of your pages, you would have to add a table right below the <body> tag and add one or more columns, and close the table right at the bottom of the page, before the </body> tag.

Your layout would roughly look like:

HTML Code:

<body>

<table>
    <tr>
        <td style="width: 100%;">
            Original template contents (header, navbar, contents, footer)
        </td>
        <td style="width: 160px;">
            Additional right column, 160 pixels wide.
        </td>
    </tr>
</table>

</body>

thanks, I really appreciate your help.

Would this be able to go under the new 'Forum Blocks' that are available in VB4.0?

I do think so, but vBulletin is still undergoing many changes, so I would not rely too much on them.

I cannot get any banner to work at all

I have installed it uninstalled it and tried everything listed in these forums

Site is www.NorCalCanyonCarvers.com

VB Version is 3.8.4 PL2
VBadvanced is 3.2.1

Just not showing up

Update

Got it to work following the instructions for VBseo. User in the option @vbbanners:%d@ with out the <!-- -->

But the only place these ads appear is in the below navbar :confused:

I can use my Google, Adsense in Admincp for that.

Pretty buggy stuff if you ask me

One thing I have been noticing is every single ad I create is set for start date to be 2 days ahead. So example is, Today is 3/8/10 The Start date is 3/10/10 Odd. Just caught that. Uninstalled and reinstalled same issue. I think I will wait until this is a far more stable system. I like it an all, but I can accomplish the same thing just by putting my adsense code where i want it. I am a new site so it is no big deal to me right now.

For the larger sites, tis is just to much work I might as well install phpads

The date/time problem is most certainly a problem with your board's timezone settings, and likely an additional problem with your server, running a day ahead.

This software can't and won't ever fix problems with servers, browsers and vbulletin styles. I'm almost sure that your style does not support all Ad locations the vbulletin Default style does, and for this reason it may not work everywhere :)

I have a strange issue that I could not find an answer to. I have a google image ad that shows up just below the navigation of my site and I cant seem to get rid of it. My Google Adsense is disabled on the forum and I have disabled all of the ads in the Rotating Banner System. I have also deleted all the google image ads in the module and it still shows up. Any suggestions?

Probably it is hard-coded into your style. A few of the free styles for vBulletin have this feature enabled.

I also need a side column, how do I add this and where to?
