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.

You have no idea what a relief it has been to get this plugin working.....I'm transferring paid sponsors over from phpbb, but all I kept finding was people rattling on about rotating banners....this suits my business model down to a tee.

Thankyou thankyou thankyou

I'm getting red x marks on my forum for banners. I input all of the pertinent information in the HTML Code section of the Admin CP but I'm having no success. The link I am working with is simliar to the one below. I'm using this link b/c I am an affiliate to a website where I am compensated for the revenue the ad generates

<a href="http://signup.yoursite.com/track/MjczNjo1OjIx/" target=""><img src="468x100_3.jpg" width="468" height="100" border=0></a>

Please advise. Thanks.

Hello,

In bold:

Code:

<a href="http://signup.yoursite.com/track/MjczNjo1OjIx/" target=""><img src="468x100_3.jpg" width="468" height="100" border=0></a>

The image you wish to show should be in the "root" folder of your forums according to the code you have.
If you have your banners in a "banners" folder on the server try this:

Code:

<a href="http://signup.yoursite.com/track/MjczNjo1OjIx/" target=""><img src="/banners/468x100_3.jpg" width="468" height="100" border=0></a>

or

Code:

<a href="http://signup.yoursite.com/track/MjczNjo1OjIx/" target=""><img src="http://www.yoursite.com/banners/468x100_3.jpg" width="468" height="100" border=0></a>

Fill in the URL of the banners on your server.

below add / replace:

<if condition="$foruminfo['banner'] AND $foruminfo['bannerlink']"><center><a href="$foruminfo[bannerlink]" target="_blank"><img src="$foruminfo[banner]" alt="$foruminfo[banneralt]" border="0" /></a></center><br />
<else />
<if condition="$foruminfo['banner']"><center><img src="$foruminfo[banner]" alt="$foruminfo[banneralt]" border="0" /></center><br />
<else />
<if condition="$foruminfo['bannercode']"><center>$foruminfo[bannercode]</center><br />
</if>
</if>
</if>

What do I replace... or do I just add the code at the bottom of both templates during a new install...?
