Ad on left/right side of forum

[checkmail]

Hello, I would like to ad a "skyscraper" ad on the left or right side of my forum. Where do I put the ad source code?

Thank you,

I can't get Amykhar's product working without problems. I've also noticed many are in the same boat as me with issues. Does anyone have a working solution in vb 3.5.3 which shows a left side column below the navbar & displays correctly in both IE & Firefox without navbar/thread compression problems at 800x600 resolution? A solution would be much appreciated.

Sorry, I accidentally left details out. vb.com does have plenty of threads regarding how to put a left side column directly beneath the navbar on your forum, but none on how to do this with success regarding forumhome only. I also can't find any info that has actually worked for 3.5.3 in both IE & Firefox here at vb.org

Just edit the forumhome template.

Under $navbar add:

<table border="0" width="100%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" align="center">
<tr>
<td width="170" valign="top" align="center">ENTER AD CODE HERE</td>
<td valign="top">
<table width="100%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0">
<tr>
<td valign="top">

Above $footer add:

</td></tr>
</table>
</td></tr>
</table>

I think he wants it to display in all forums without it gimping all the site. It seems to shrink down on postbit and not keep size.

That worked perfectly. I could be wrong but I'd bet you'd draw some interest if you were to release this in the 3.5 Modifications area as I've seen people ask for this before, yet it has never been released.

Thank You.

I was looking to display this on the forumhome only, where as the other code modifications up until now that I've tried have been for all forums, while a few others were supposed to work for the forumhome only but never did display quite right. The code posted by RDX1 has been the only solution for me which displayed properly in both IE & FF.
