I am using the "Image / Flash" field to point to a JPG, and the "URL" field to point to an external website - i.e I do NOT have a custom embedded script. The banner is active, enabled, and does NOT have Max Impressions or Max Clicks set.

The banner image is displayed correctly and the link does correctly point to the tracking page: /forum/rbs_banner.php?id=XXX&userid=YYY. The tracking PHP page also correctly redirects to my final destination URL.

However, the "Clicks" reading in the "Manage Banners" area and on the "Banner Statistics" pages both always shows 0, even after I have personally clicked on a banner. This happens for all 3 banners that I have running. The First/Last click statistics do show dates though!

Impressions: 231
Clicks: 0
CTR: 0%
First Click: Mon, 21-Nov-2016 09:33:57 GMT
Last Click: Tue, 22-Nov-2016 18:23:51 GMT

The only thing perhaps different about my use-case is that I am displaying the banner on a vBAdvanced CMS page which is in the root folder of my website but the vBulletin install is actually within a sub-folder called "/Forum". The banner image is also NOT beneath the "/Forum" path and therefore I had to use a fully qualified absolute URL to point to the image.

I know there are a few web applications which use a different path of page rendering, one of which is photopost. I these cases it is impossible to use the banner system via template changes, but you may try the unsupported iframe in-place rotating banners solution.

Could you please try the same banners on a standard forum page? If they work there, then it's definitively a problem with rendering the pages.
