VB Banner Control 1.2

Hi,

with the allowance of Firefly I repost this hack. At first I want to mention that I used PPNs ads hack only for one file in the adminoptions as a template. He made this file so perfect that I looked how he solved the adminconfigurations file for his hack.
The rest is without viewing on other hacks coded by me.

This hack has the following features:

- allows you to create banners dynamicly
- you can view stats:
-> guestclicks ( how many not logged in guests clicked on the banner )
-> userclicks ( which user has clicked how often on which banner )
-> views ( how often is the banner viewed )
- control theses stats over an admin cp script which let you:
-> add new banners
-> edit banners
-> remove banners
-> view the stats
-> remove the stats
- NEW in 1.1: Useroverview:
-> you can give a user of your forum the possibility to view the stats via ACP
-> he can see the views, userclicks and guestclicks
- NEW in 1.2: Put Banners between categories
-> you can assign each category via phpmyadmin an banner which is under this category shown
-> therefor you've to split the categories, that you have space between them

For an example, you can have a view on www.kampfkunst-board.info. The 2 banners in the middle are created dynamicly by my scripts

Here in this post I add the hack, in the next post, the screenshots

- hm, I'll fix this deletion bug!
- for displaying the banners, just click on get_code in the admin menue, then you'll get the bannercode which you can put somewhere into your templates

okay thanks, I found it, while editing somehow I delete yor instructions at the bottom

[drives fast]

the problem with deleting banners is here in banner_manage.php

PHP Code:

// ###################### Start Remove #######################
if ($action=="remove") {

        doformheader("banner","del"); 


needs to be:

PHP Code:

// ###################### Start Remove #######################
if ($action=="remove") {

        doformheader("banner_manage","del"); 


took about 2 seconds to see that one by comparing it to the edit code

just trying to help

@ drives fast:

no problem KK

I also found another thing......when clearing the clicks "[remove] these entries" it removes the data but does not reset the numbers.....they remain on the overall view screen and remain in the database. I have been farting with this for a few hours now and havent figured out how to solve that yet since my php is very limeted.

also I found no way to clear the guest clicks and views for those of us that want to reset everything every month

I will keep looking but if you get a chance....could you look at that too?

thanks.

of course, I'll look on it!
