Could anyone please tell me how I could make adverts rotate in the position displayed below?

The only advert mod I have seen in a search had set positions.

Are you talking after every page load? Or after the load, it changes after so much time?

Bacon Butty · #3 06-16-2008, 05:25 PM

Ah sorry should have explained that.

Every page load, only on the forum home.

This could easily be accomplished by using a plugin on global_start and surrounding it by:

if(THIS_SCRIPT == 'index') { } and choosing a random ad from the database.

Quick answer: No, there is no ad mod that allows you to put ads anywhere you want on a page.

Consider hiring a coder if you really must have it.

Well, it is not really an easy task if you don't understand PHP. The easiest way would be to store your ad data within the database (link, image, id) and use PHP to fetch a random row and insert it into a variable that will display it anywhere.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
