Support - I am offering Support in this Thread ONLY...I unfortunately cannot be here during the coming weeks (Mon-Fri), so therefore you will have to rely on others for assitance, should it be urgent...If you do require assitance, please - Only reply in this thread

Hack info

What does it do? - Basically, you can allow registered board users to add Affiliation Links to the database, which have to be moderated by you...You can then display a Random Banner generated totally at random wherever you like, and it will be linked to the site of the submitter...Also it stores the Image Height and Width in the database, and you can limit the size of the Banners they can upload...If they change the image (located on their server) without editing their Banner, then it will not show up their Banner, Link, Hit Count, Edit Link or Site Name...They must then ask an Admin to update the Banner...Now there is also a List of the Banners on the site, and their Moderated Status...You can also choose how many Banners to show in the list

@cklaszlo - The upgrade script only works from v3 to v4 - Any prior versions to v3, such as for v2 or v1, you should use the New Install file for instructions

@NTLDR - Good idea

lol kool cause im really wantin to use this hack on me site

also how would i go about displaying say 5 links on my home (vbindex) is there a way to do it and can i have them listed horizontally?

I think also this would be kool (dont mean to sound rude its already an excellent hack)

If u can set it up so its displayed on a page in categories with maybe the top ten (maybe set in admin) of each showing a banner (in rows) and the rest in just plain link form

thnx again lol

You mean all of them?

I can do a page with the "Top 10 visited" banners, and then others ordered by number of Hits

i just thought it may be good to display certain links as text as if its a high amount of images it may be upsetting for 56k users

Tho for the text links it may be a good idea to show a random set amount :S
