I would like this installed, if someone PM's me I'll pay them to help me.

Hello - Thank you Deviation for such an amazing product!!

Everything is working great except that I'm getting a double banner on my forum. I'm assuming it's a simple template code change, but I'm not sure what to change.

I have attached a screen-shot of the problem...Any help to resolve this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Reed

great hack . for those who want to make the output to look better (like me) try this code.

In FORUMDISPLAY find

AFTER ADD

It will look like this

Hello Everyone,

In the past I had asked if there was going to be a branding free option for this mod and something was said to the effect of that is a good possibility or will be something done in the future. I can't exactly remember.

I am wondering if there is a branding free option now because I have been waiting months to install this mod on my vb 3.5.4, but would rather have the branding free option before actually committing to this mod.

If you can let me know on the branding free, I would appreciate it.

Thanks Again,

Nuguru :classic:

I think the branding option is for 3.6 and as far as I know that should be out soon....

Cheers for a great hack!

fixed!

Hello,

Can you please let me know if you have a branding free option for vb3.5.4-3.5.5? Either way, can you please provide some details?


Thank You,

Nuguru

Did you mention how much the unbranded version was going to cost for 3.6?

This mod is exactly what I need and believe me when I say I need it bad! I'm running 3.6.2 so I'm gonna wait for the update. Hopefully soon?

Thanks for all the time a effort you are putting into this!

I upgraded to 3.6.2 and upgraded vBsponsors to 1.0.5

I got the banners to display, but when they are clicked, it opens a page with a hyperlink instead of a direct link to the sponsor...

any suggestions?

Could we please get this for vBulletin 3.6?

Hello,

I still would like to know on this. Is there someone that knows something on this?

It can't be that hard to remove the copyright and pay a fee to do so. Pretty basic stuff, just someone needs to communicate here.


Thank You,

Nuguru :)

<font size="4">DESPERATE</font> for 3.6.2 version of this...

I see from the history that it is "coming" .... but when.

I know all about the work effort, and do appreciate it.

Any information would be GREATLY appreciated on the 3.6.x compatibility version.

OK... now 3.6.3 version ....

when you create a new forum its at the bottom

v2.0 for 3.6.x is done. I just need to check the template code. I've been so #$%* busy lately I haven't had the chance. It should be posted this weekend provided I don't end up working.

Deviation:

VERY MUCH appreciated. I do know how much work goes into these, as I am a developer by trade, IT Release Manager by current role, and sit in front of my computers at home many evenings.

Looking forward to the posting of v2.0.

That's great news! Thanks for your work Dev. We finally got our first sponsor so I've been waiting for this update. I've been testing it on 3.6.2/3 and aside from the admincp issue i posted about earlier, I noticed there is an incompatibility with FireFox. The banners do not display. It works in IE, though. Then again... that was the same thing with the AdminCP pages... worked in IE and not in FireFox. Maybe it's just my computer? lol

:cry: :cry: over the fact vB.Sponsors 2.0 still ain't here :cry: :cry:

Eh hem... https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=131512 ;)

Did the link not go through when I sent out the update?

Sorry there sir, my bad. I didn't see the update. Much appreciated !!

I like what you did here but this code does not work if you are using side blocks located to the left of the forum, it throws the entire template off...

Do you know how to fix that issue?

Im looking to align the sponsored by : banner in the center of the my forumdisplay rather than to the left above the new thread button. Anyone know how to do this?

<a href="https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?p=1116730" target="_blank">Post in the new thread for version 2.0 for vB 3.6.x</a>, unless it is for vB 3.5.x

Yes its for 3.5.x

getting this error..

and also, the forum list view was now showing the categories 2 times.

Check vB.Sponsors/link.php. Be sure you've specified the path to your forums directory.

Can anyone help Please..

Try enclosing the vB.Sponsors code for that template in <div> tags.
Simple enough, right?;)

Awwww well this seemed to fix the issue but only within the forums that have the banner displayed turned on an in all the other forums it still throw the template off???? Any ideas?

This is what my code looks like adding the tags you suggested.. Did I do it right?

<div align="center">
<if condition="$foruminfo[sponsor_enabled] == 1 AND $vboptions[sponsor_global_enable_sponsorship] == 1"><table class="tborder" cellpadding="6" cellspacing="1" border="0" width="468" height="60" align="center">
<tr>
<td class="tcat" align="center"><span class="normal"><font size="1">
$vbphrase[sponsored_by] </font>
</span></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="alt2" align="center"><span class="normal"><font size="1"><a href="vB.Sponsors/link.php?f=$foruminfo[forumid]" title="$foruminfo[sponsor_name]" target="_blank">
<if condition="$foruminfo[sponsor_banner_enabled] == 1 AND $vboptions[sponsor_global_enable_banners] == 1">
<if condition="!empty($foruminfo[sponsor_banner_big])">
<img src="$foruminfo[sponsor_banner_big]" alt="$foruminfo[sponsor_name]" border="0" />
<else />
<img src="$foruminfo[sponsor_banner]" alt="$foruminfo[sponsor_name]" border="0" />
</if>
<else />
$foruminfo[sponsor_name]
</if></a>
</if></font>
</span></td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>

Try this:
Be sure when posting HTML code that you enclose it with the HTML tag on the forum (looks like the <>). Otherwise its a bear to read. ;)

OK I will use the HTML tags next time sorry.. Now I tried the updated code and the weird thing is as soon as I apply that code my server spike to 80% utilization:alien:

What is going on?

Yep just verified with my Hosting provider that as soon as I add this code in my FORUMDISPLAY the server peeks to 80% Any ideas why?

Not sure. There's nothing overly complex happening there. Have you checked to see what the template does with any changes (stock)?

If I dont add your code and just add the default code as described originally in the hack there are no issues.

After looking at the original FORUMDISPLAY code I've included, it looks like the code you pasted initially has some additions.

Try this:
This is the original code with a <div> tag added to center the sponsor's ad. This replaces the section of vB.Sponsor code ONLY. This isn't the full FORUMDISPLAY code.

Ok I added the above code and server appears good BUT the banner is still on the left side? Its still not centering the banner?

I have noticed on the code you posted there seems to a couple lines that look very identical???

Code in question below
<img src="$foruminfo[sponsor_banner_big]" alt="$foruminfo[sponsor_name]" border="0" />

<img src="$foruminfo[sponsor_banner]" alt="$foruminfo[sponsor_name]" border="0" />

sorry to be a pest...

I have done this to correct the allignment of the banner and it works. BUT the text (Visit Our Site:) is still on the left.. How can I also Center that text or either place it under the banner or below the banner ?
