Apart from the Hack Page under vBulletin Options, I can't see anywhere in the AdminCP to change anything...

Any help would be appreciated..

I installed the mod like i should but it doesn't show up the banners...
I placed $cyb_flashimagebanners in almost any template possible.
Nevermind, i fixed it.

Any Chance to get a function to display Ads after X Post in Showthread?

[Phoenix81377]

Installed and working great...can someone help the newbie out though? I want it to only show on the main forum page and I see where I can enter "This_Script" locations but I am confused about syntax. Should I enter full URLs, relative paths, or name of file plus something? I am learning...sorry for the slowness...

[Merjawy]

installed and all fine as far settings/adding banners etc... but no banners showing up at all

[giorgioarmani]

Can I add javascript banners?

[Magnumutz]

Ok, there's one problem that i really haven't figured out.
How do i make the banners show up on the vBAdvanced CMPS page?
Cuz the ads are in the navbar template, which is used by the portal.
Please help!

[Valter]

Banners are automatically added to 'header' template and it shows for me on vBA without any special settings or template edits etc...

[wmlvb]

How do you get them to show after 1st post?

[longgsm]

Only show in the ad_header_logo template. But other location not show. Please check again.
