Tested on vBulletin: 3.5.0 RC2

Zachariah - http://www.gzhq.net

This is a VB3.5 Ver of my previous hack:

*** Add a banner image to each forum (VB 3.0x)
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=61555

*** Info:
This modification will Add an image banner w/ link Or paste in your own HTML code option per forum. These files can be any image. (png, jpg, gif, ect). This will be located after the $navbar on FORMDISPLAY. This images can be located on the localhost or on a remote server.
--------------------------------------------------*/

Upload the "plug-in" and edit 2 template, It's a snap.



Changelog:

Requested by: - Ryan McBain

** Note: 1.5 - 1.6 needs only to edit SHOWTHREAD not Reinstall the XML files

You can use this code per forum and have multi subjects rotate.
I have also pasted the JAVA output of phpAdsNews and made multi campains.

There is a HTML area for java / html / dhtml - no PHP.

not rotator... what about show in same time...?

There is an html area per forum vs. a banner image.
You can show whatever you want.

MySQL Error : Unknown column 'banner' in 'field list'

@icare - Unknown column 'banner' in 'field list' - the mysql update looks like it did not work.

Import product: banner_image.xml

Hey Zac,

I am doing this (random banner on each forum) without your plugin but would like to use yours without manually editing my navbar template.

Do you have any plans to add per usergroup?

and/or

Can you add an option to add a collapsable box (maybe conditionally by usergroup) around the banner similar to the one I have here that I use?

[funinthesun]

Hi, I've got this installed but since I upgraded to 3.5.3 it's stopped displaying the banners. Any reason why? Thanks.

[jamshed]

i installed this and its giving some problem, i can see banners when surfing through opera browser, but i can see the banners when surfing throguh IE or Firefox??

Help please?
