Can someone run over what exact code should be inserted into the ad_navbar_below

For example this

<!--@vbbanners:%d@-->

is my banner options.
If I place the above code into it, it won't work.

If I place any of the above variations it also won't work. (I've read back about 20 pages now)

FYI - I'm in the middle of an argument here with GF over why my hair has been torn out over our bed sheets.... im serious too.

The tutorials are all very nice looking, and time has been put into them, but at the end of the day I've watched and read everything and man I am clueless as to what is going wrong.

I'm on 4.2.0 by the way. And thanks for any replies to my question... now back to arguing with my gf.

You could watch the movie (very first post), or the quick starter help (included PDF), to exhaust less

1. make sure you have a banner. if you deleted the default banners, reinstall the product and keep them; after testing, disable them
2. don't change options unless you have to
3. use <!--@vbbanners:0@--> in your templates unless you have banners at other locations and unless you haven't changed the options
4. use the placeholder in a template where you can see it at once, decide later where to put it definitively
5. change banners after you have made sure they actually do show up
6. verify changes
7. please think simple ... most of the fuzz arises when hurry comes in and no reading of the included help and believing everything must work in a way you already know ...
