MY ONLY PROBLEM NOW: is it shows up on vbAdvanced homepage, however the link from the image is wrong.....it reads www.mysite.com/misc.php ...it should read www.mysite.com/forum/misc.php ANYONE PLEASE HELP

NYMYTH, what you add to the temp so it would show as forums/misc.php and not just as misc.php?

I can see only the banners title.

I use vbseo, maybe the problem is that?

cyb_flashimagebanners - go to that template and look for misc.php? It should be midpoint, then relpace that will your full site URL ie.http://www.mysite.com/forums/misc.php

That should do the trick.....

Im having problems with the links

Click the Image here: http://www.0-60performance.com/ (doesnt work)

And then here: http://www.0-60performance.com/forum/index.php (works)

Seems to be leaving /forum/ out of the URL when you click it on the CMPS page.
