I have searched and seen a lot of post but none very recent when I search.   I am not sure if I can put a website example on here for someone to go look at to see what I am trying to accomplish if it is possible.    Am I allowed to put websites url on here without breaking any rules?    I hope not and this is not my website.

I want to have 7-10 banners scrolling across the top where you can click on them it will send you to the page that the banner is (Like an ad, I guess)  If that is not possible maybe something similar that rotates without scrolling. 

Any advise or help is appreciated.

Have you searched the mod database for a mod that does that? If you do not find any such mod there, you can request one at the request forum, because the only way to do this would be through a custom mod.

If you want the same scrolling banners you have on your home page, shouldn't be too difficult to add it above the forum header.  Would be similar to what we did here with rotating banners.

What mod are you using?   

Looks good!!!

It's not a mod, it's custom coded, but isn't difficult to do.  You just add a div above the main wrapper and copy the banner code from your home page.

BFoster143, did you get this sorted?  did any of suggestions help? their is no mod that will do what you are asking it would require some custom code as other stated, it is quite easy to do.

As you have not responded in 3 weeks im markingthis as solved, if you need further help just say what you have tried since.
