But......

As stated in my prior post, the instructions make no sense. Flipping through the 50 or so pages here I see I'm not the only one who doesn't understand how the developers instructions are set.

All I want is for the instructions to be laid out so people can understand them. I'm pretty secure in understanding hoe the ACP and the mod is supposed to look and work. It's the templates configuration changes I can't figure out.

It works like this:

Add This line:

See that's the problem. I don't have the second part.....the code. It's neither in my header nor my forum home templates. I have 3.7.4 PL1

If your header template is unchanged then it should look like this in 3.7.4 PL1, i have made bold and magenta the line you are looking for.
Code:

<!-- logo -->
<a name="top"></a>
<table border="0" width="$stylevar[outertablewidth]" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" align="center">
<tr>
        <td align="$stylevar[left]"><a href="$vboptions[forumhome].php$session[sessionurl_q]"><img src="$stylevar[titleimage]" border="0" alt="$vboptions[bbtitle]" /></a></td>
        <td align="$stylevar[right]" id="header_right_cell">
                <if condition="$ad_location['ad_header_logo']">$ad_location[ad_header_logo]<else />&nbsp;</if>
        </td>
</tr>
</table>
<!-- /logo -->

<!-- content table -->
$spacer_open

$_phpinclude_output

$ad_location[ad_header_end]

If you want you can mail me the templates you want the code adding to and i will do them over the next few days (work willing), pm me for e-mail address.

You might consider asking for help in a fashion that is not seem like you are whining or complaining about free code and free support, you might find people are more receptive to help you. It also does help if you read the instructions carefully as going through 50 pages of forum posts sure sounds like a waste of time.

They make perfect sense to me. Its just like every other mod that requires a template edit. You have to do them in the Admincp if you have never dealt with a template mod before.

Right, its in your Admincp > Styles & Templates > Style Manager > Select "Edit Templates" from the dropdown menu > double click on the "header" template found in the list.

You will see the code editor open up and this is where you ad your mods.

I think you misunderstand what I ask. I'm not whining and I am indeed thanking Simon Lloyd for showing us how the adverts should look. However, from all his initial reply I still didn't see anything technical.

Mr Simon Lloyd has understood what I said and has responded again and I thank him.

It isn't that I don't know how to use the scripts/code/or mods, I have customized virtually my entire infrastructure. The part I don't understand is the instructions supplied. I've never before seen instructions like this and it makes no sense to me. I don't understand what he direct to additionally configure.

Instructions are normally in a text file like this:obviously everybody does things differently so I was asking for somebody to maybe put the instructions in the order most mods instructions look like (BELOW)

Step 1 - In "HEADER Template"

Find:

here is my code, this is the code to look for.........yada yada

Under - add:

Here is my new code, this is what I am showing to add to the existing code
--------------------------------------------

Step 2 - In "FORUMHOME Template

Find:


And so on and so on.......etc

        </tr>
<tr>

</tr>
</table>
<!-- /logo -->

<!-- content table -->
$spacer_open

$_phpinclude_output

$ad_location[ad_header_end]
<center>$ad_headerEnd</center>
