Be sure to let me know if it worked. If it does, I'm going to update the main zip file to include this installer instead.

Personally, I am NOT proficient.

I need someone to tell me how to uninstall this thing so I can try a re-install.

Somene please read the couple of previous posts and send HELP!

I would like to request a feature. Being able to specify ads and ad types on a per-forum basis.

Done all the below and it still throws my forums out. If I use auto in the stylevars it throws my reply box out as well.

There has to be a fix for this?

So if we are running a default theme that was just edited, we will have problems and have to make some changes?

How can i unistall this hack?
it works for me, but the menu is out of the main template table. (i'm not using the defaul template)

Anyone running 3.0.3 that has this working? Maybe this should be asked first, then you'll know if it is compatible.

I know they changed quite a bit in 3.0.3, so that may be the issue rather then the code. You will most likely have to re-enter the date into the files in question (your db and templates should be fine).

Works fine in 3.03

Just a tip:

To get the width right (same as other tables), you have to set cellspacing from 7 to "0" in the forumhome part. (2 times for each column)

And in forumhome template add this

<td>&nbsp;</td>

after this

<if condition="$vboptions[adenable]==1">

(2 times for each column)

It looks mutch better that way
