Here's a history of my questions/replies about adding a different banner ad for different forums/subforums:

Are we able to have different ads for each forum/sub-forum?

Thank you redtyger.

<if condition="$foruminfo[forumid]" == '1'>
Ad code for forum ID 1
</if>
<if condition="$foruminfo[forumid]" == '2'>
$header(or whatever)_adcode
</if>
<if condition="$foruminfo[forumid]" == '3'>
Ad code for forum ID 3
</if>

And so on.

Is there a way to do this? It looks like the same ad has to be displayed on the forums you choose. I need a different ad for each forum.

I would like to run certain ads in certain categories so that I can use ads that are targeted for that category. This way I can target specific advertisers for each category. Advertisers would much rather have their ad targeted at a more defined group of people. The more you can assure your advertisers that their ad is being displayed at their target demographic the more they are willing to pay.

If it will be possible that would be fantastic.

Thanks

I asked RedTyger if this was possible (in an earlier thread) and RedTyger said it was possible.

Is it possible?

I just want to make sure I understand correctly and that I have explained what I am trying to do (have different banner ads on various forums/subforums within the same vB message board).

So would template edits be the best way to do this or would the method that redtyger mentioned above (see the quoted post in dark green font) be the better method?

Thank you.
