On my hardware review site all the hardware i get to review is in exchange for banners on my site, i have the main site banners set up and am pretty happy with how it works, but what i'm wanting to do is add 1 rotating banner section on my forums at <a href="http://forum.x-trememodz.com" target="_blank">http://forum.x-trememodz.com</a><br /><br />adding banners and stuff is easy in the entropy banner section, but it says to add this code<br /><!--quoteo--><div class='quotetop'>QUOTE</div><div class='quotemain'><!--quotec--><!--#exec cmd="cgi-bin/entropybanner.cgi"--><!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd--><br /><br />to the .shtml page that you want the banners to apear on, well I'm using a php forum so am i right in assuming i cant use entropy banner on my forums?<br /><br />I downloded this php banner app last night and installed it with no problems<br /><a href="http://www.phpadsnew.com/one/" target="_blank">http://www.phpadsnew.com/one/</a> it has WAY more features than what you would expect from a free app but I'm still unsure how to implement the banner rotation.<br /><br />All i need is a simple way to have a rotation of about 20 banners on my forums main page, any info/help or suggestions will be greatly appreciated!!<!--content-->
I am not an expert here, and it would be a good idea to wait until one haps along, but I believe that you would put that in the overall_header.tpl of the yoursite.com/public_html/forum/templates/subsilver/directory (assuming you went with the standard forum install and haven't installed any additional themes for your users. <br /><br />But again, might want to double check on this, and don't forget to make a backup (copy as overall_header.bak) of the file first!<br /><br />Good Luck, <br /><br />Bill McCord<br />www.greatfolios.com<!--content-->
thats what I tried first, and it didnt work. I have been playing around with phpadsnew and have finally gotten it to display the banner on my forum, now i just cant figure out how to center it. I've tried the <center> HTML tag but that doesnt work. heres what the code looks like in my header file.<br /><br /><!--quoteo--><div class='quotetop'>QUOTE</div><div class='quotemain'><!--quotec--><script language='JavaScript' type='text/javascript'><br /><!--<br />Â if (!document.phpAds_used) document.phpAds_used = ',';<br />Â document.write ("<" + "script language='JavaScript' type='text/javascript' src=http://www.totalchoicehosting.com/forums/lofiversion/index.php/'");<br />Â document.write ("http://www.x-trememodz.com/forum/phpadds/adjs.php?n=a554fcbb");<br />Â document.write ("&what=zone:1&source=forum+index&target=_blank");<br />Â document.write ("&exclude=" + document.phpAds_used);<br />Â if (document.referer)<br />Â Â Â document.write ("&referer=" + escape(document.referer));<br />Â document.write ("'><" + "/script>");<br />//--><br /></script><noscript><a href=http://www.totalchoicehosting.com/forums/lofiversion/index.php/'http://www.x-trememodz.com/forum/phpadds/adclick.php?n=a554fcbb' target='_blank'><img src='http://www.x-trememodz.com/forum/phpadds/adview.php?what=zone:1&source=forum+index&n=a554fcbb' border='0' alt=''></a></noscript><!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd--><br /><br />if someone can tell me how to get that to center the banner I'll be a happy camper.<br />heres what it looks like now <a href="http://forum.x-trememodz.com" target="_blank">http://forum.x-trememodz.com</a><!--content-->
