Hey guys, im new to this.
I have a SMF forum and got the ad mod working great! Now I'm looking for a mod to ad links or banners to the footer of the page. I have seen them on other forums - dunno if they were SMF tho. Does such a thing exist for SMF forums?
And is their any way to insert HTML banners into posts?
Thanks for any help

Did you try out the admanagement mod? Try searching the mod database before asking. :)
hmmm - I already have that - its not what Im lookiing for and I did search. Perhaps I need to clarify.
I want to be able to put a few rows of small banners along the bottom of my forum - maybe 5 across and perhaps 4 high. Like a banner link farm kinda.
The closest thing I can see from the database is the gallery mod - but can I use it for HTML banners?

Please clarify, do you mean show the same banners somewhere inside every topic? I would assume you aren't talking about inserting a particular image in an individual post by using the [img] bbcode. ;) This is one thing the Ad Management mod can do, you can place ads in places such as between certain posts.
As for putting ads at the footer of the page, I would think you could still use the ad management mod but possibly make some minor adjustments so it shows it in the way you want.
If these are just static banners, it would also wouldn't be too hard to just add some an html table to index.template.php in the template_main_below function.
Hmmm, I also just realized, by html banners do you mean links instead of actual images?
This is an example of what I mean - be warned tho, it is an adult site and has nothing to do with me, please dont flame me, get upset if you click on it or dont click if adult material offends you - I dont think I can be clearer than that! But it is exactly what I would like to do at the bottom of the page -

All the banners are clickable and their are about 25 in 3 rows across the screen - all at the footer of the page.
If there is a mod or a way to do this, i would like to know more about it. Or, would it work if I use the ad mod 'bottom of page' part - just load all banners into it?
The easiest way would to just to place the HTML code within the footer of your Index.Template.php file.
