Rotating Banner System Details »» | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
With the Rotating Banner System software, you may publish literally anywhere standard banners and advertising, with no restriction but your imagination. Unlike many other products, it allows to show an unlimited amount of banners and advertising, which are randomly shown at the places you choose, and you may refer generically to an Ad by using specific placeholders.
Also the management is straight-forward and simple to use. Forum administrators with maintenance rights may add, edit and delete records from the Administration Control Panel (ACP), one of each representing a banner. After saving the new banner settings, they are immediately visible at your board. Compatibility: from vBulletin 3.6.5 onwards By the way, I do also install the hack on your boards, but since I am very, very busy, it may take some time (weeks) until it gets done. Tutorials:

After a couple of days trying and trying ... I DID IT!!! I found out we can't use the same position banners in multiple places. It will stick to only the first position we used it.
For example, if you use banner0@ under the navbar, you have to use another position (banner 1@ or banner3@...) after the first post or every 5 and 10 posts. Now my next issue ... THE LOGO BANNER! I NEED to change my static logo image into a rotating banner. I've already created the swf flash file with the exact dimensions of the current logo image. I read that editing header templates would not work. ANY HELP please. |

I edited the header template SUCCESSFULLY thanks to y2ksw's previous posts on the subject. THANKS y2ksw.
The only issue was when I use a swf flash file. I searched everywhere and couldn't find a way to have the stand-alone swf file to have a transparent background in Flash CS6 (you can do it with the HTML file, not the swf file). And the swf was hiding all the login info at the logo header. I had to go back and add 9 or so banners at that position using instead png images. The drawback is people have to refresh or new/click to see a different image. I was hoping the swf was gonna work. If anybody knows either a way to make the swf stand-alone file have a transparent background, or a way to send the swf logo file in the background of all the login info found in the header template, please let me know. |

Based on what I've done so far, here's a summary for anybody or especially newbie (like me) looking for a lot of things but doesn't want to go through hundreds of pages of info.
TO PLACE IN THE HEADER ... AS LOGO Style Manager--> Edit Templates--> header REPLACE: (from 3rd line) <vb:if condition="$stylevar['titleimage']"><div><a name="top" href="{vb:link forumhome}" class="logo-image"><img src="{vb:stylevar titleimage}" alt="{vb:rawphrase x_powered_by_vbulletin, {vb:raw vboptions.bbtitle}}" /></a></div></vb:if> WITH: <vb:if condition="$stylevar['titleimage']"><div><a name="top" href="{vb:link forumhome}" class="logo-image"><!--@vbbanners:0@--></a></div></vb:if> NB- There's an issue with the stand-alone swf flash file with no transparent background, covering all the login info found in the header template. Works better with png image files. Still waiting to see if there's a way to send the swf logo banner file in the background. ------------------------------------ TO PLACE AFTER FIRST POST Style Manager--> Edit Templates--> Ad location Templates--> ad_showthread_firstpost_sig Add at the end: <div align="center"><!--@vbbanners:0@--></div> NB- ad_showthread_firstpost_sig places the banner as a SIGNATURE after the first post; ad_showthread_firstpost_start places the banner inside at the start of the first post ad_thread_first_post_content places the banner in the content space of the first post (NOT WORKING FOR ME anyway) ------------------------------------- TO PLACE 2 BANNERS SIDE BY SIDE (Horizontal) 1) Make sure the 2 banner dimensions will fit horizontally without overlapping, based on the total horizontal ad space in the site width. Both at the same position since they will occupy just one "row" of space together. If you set them at diff position, it will work but this would be a waste of banner position. Instead of using banners:0@ and banners:0@, use (for example) banners:0@ and banners:1@ [again, this is a waste of position 1] 2) Wherever you are insterting them just write the following code in the appropriate template: <div align="center"><!--@vbbanners:0@--><!--@vbbanners:0@--></div> ------------------------------------- TO PLACE BANNERS EVERY 5th AND 10th POST Style Manager--> Edit Templates--> Postbit Templates--> postbit_legacy Paste the following code at the end: <vb:if condition="THIS_SCRIPT == 'showthread' AND (($post['postcount'] % 15 == 10) OR $post['postcount'] == 10)"> <div class="thread_controls"> <div style="width: 100%; text-align: center"> <!--@vbbanners:3@--> </div> </div> <vb:elseif condition="THIS_SCRIPT == 'showthread' AND (($post['postcount'] % 15 == 5) OR $post['postcount'] == 5)" /> <div class="thread_controls"> <div style="width: 100%; text-align: center"> <!--@vbbanners:4@--> </div> </div> </vb:if> NB- This code assumes you have already created at position 3 a banner to be placed after every 10th post and a position 4 banner after every 5th post. Feel free to adjust according to your banner list settings. You may even include 2 banners at the same position in those codes. See above for instructions. ------------------------------------ Hope that helps. |

I don't have time to search all over but has anybody noticed that when you set a date/time for the banners to turn on and off the script will simply change your numbers to something else?
If I try to set: Start: Dec 1, 00 01 End: Dec 1, 23 59 It changes automatically to Start: Dec 1, 01 01 End: Dec 2, 00 59 Why? Sometimes I'll change the 00 to 01 hour and then BOTH start and end become 02 hour! Sometimes the start or end date jumps to the next day. This is bugging me! All I want to do is start the banner at the beginning of the day, and then stop it at the end of the day, but it will not accept this. So I tried to start at beginning of the day and end beginning of the next day, and it won't go any earlier than hour 02! That's not all. So I finally was able to use Dec 1, 01 01 to Dec 2, 01 01. But then I went to my next banner which is supposed to be Dec 2, 01 01, to Dec 3, 01 01 and it refuses that, instead changing it to hour 02 02! There is no rhyme or reason here, but it does not seem to ever accept any time I put in there! It changes the hour or the minutes or the day to whatever it wants. What is going on? Thanks, I hope to fix this soon as an ad campaign is beginning tomorrow! UPDATE: Note, if I simply hit SAVE on a banner over and over without even changing anything, the hours auto increment up and up every time. So in order to get 23:59 I actually have to put in 22:59 so that it will increment to the right time. Since 00 will increment to 01, there is no way to put 00 as my hour. |

Rathar than editing postbit_legacy AND showthread_firstpost_sig templates, we cand edit postbit_legacy te,plate by adding a third section for after the first post. In that sense, the ad will fall truly AFTER the first post rather than above the signature. Here's the code.
NB- for the mobile version, that's the only way we can get something after the first post since the showthread_firstpost templates do not exist. <vb:if condition="THIS_SCRIPT == 'showthread' AND (($post['postcount'] % 15 == 10) OR $post['postcount'] == 10)"> <div class="thread_controls"> <div style="width: 100%; text-align: center"> <!--@vbbanners:3@--><!--@vbbanners:3@--> </div> </div> <vb:elseif condition="THIS_SCRIPT == 'showthread' AND (($post['postcount'] % 15 == 5) OR $post['postcount'] == 5)" /> <div class="thread_controls"> <div style="width: 100%; text-align: center"> <!--@vbbanners:2@--><!--@vbbanners:2@--> </div> </div> <vb:elseif condition="THIS_SCRIPT == 'showthread' AND $post['postcount'] == 1" /> <div class="thread_controls"> <div style="width: 100%; text-align: center"> <!--@vbbanners:1@--><!--@vbbanners:1@--> </div> </div> </vb:if> |

However - Once I do this it seems subsequent images in position 0 list will appear below the navbar instead of at the same place as my first image. Anybody have an idea what I am doing wrong ? KUDOS ! |

As you would do with any other plugin ... and you would normally make a backup before that, as well

I have been using this hack for more than year. And I am very satisfied.
Recently I found an issue. If I display the flash file directly, it runs at normal speed. However, under the RBS banner hack, it runs very fast. File is same. for reference, I have displayed the file in both format. It is Edifice Ad displayed two times. Page: http://www.indianrealestateboard.com...e-Other-Cities First Edifice ad through RBS hack. Second is direct html code. swf file in use: http://www.indianrealestateboard.com...s/edifice3.swf Has any one faced this problem ? What parameters I need to change to make the file to run at normal speed ? |
