if we make suchlike then Admins can't see banners in no case

Jerry

you can make a checkbox on the banner page for settings that says "admins view banners" then you can check / uncheck the box and use the proper variable...sounds like it would work, but just theory.

I think Midgard took it as adding it to change permissions for admins on the permissions page...

Midgard

no, no...

I've be try. But, I can't. Don't work. This impossible.

Well, I really wanted that feature so if it can't be done in the admin I guess we'll just have to hard code it. here's what I did...


Edit: index.template.php

Find:
showBanner($zone = 'bottom');

Change to:
if (!$context['allow_admin']) {
showBanner($zone = 'bottom');
}


That's if your banner is at the bottom like mine..  ;)
look for:

showBanner($zone = 'top');

if yours is at the top.  :)

no more ads for admins now!  8)

Thank you, but I just found out something weired

At my work computer there were options under New Banner>Add New but at my home PC there is nothing (see pic) tried IE, FireFox and Opera haven't changed anything, any suggestions?

maybe that's why 'Advertisement Banner' was missing from permission panel.

guys this is a great mod and worked a dream with the default theme.
But I want to put it in the xtEnhanced theme but I have no idea what I need to change.  The line <td id="bodyarea" style="padding: 1ex 20px 2ex 20px;">';
does not exist in the theme.

I want to put the banners in place of "style="background-image: url(', $settings['images_url'], '/xtHEAD.gif);" bgcolor="#83B3E0"><span style="font-family: Georgia, sans-serif; font-size: xx-large;">', $context['forum_name'], '</span></td>" on line 219 of the index.template.php.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Tip
Open index.template.php
Find
// The main content should go here.  A table is used because IE 6 just can't handle a div.
echo '
<table width="100%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0"><tr><td align="left">';
}

Replace
// The main content should go here.  A table is used because IE 6 just can't handle a div.
echo '
<table width="100%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0"><tr><td align="left">';
        showBanner($zone = 'top');
}
for the part that didn't exist


Part #2
Find
<img src="', $settings['images_url'], '/xtLOGO.gif"  alt=""/>
Replace With
';
      showBanner($zone = 'top');
echo '

It's not a problem. Because, you've don't be create an banner? Please look after create a banner.

Gandalf

well there's nothing like this, it just tell us that here we add a banner, nothing else...

Having trouble with the database. I am assuming for this mod I am supposed to create another table in the existing database used for smf, but the code in the bannerpdb.php file keeps giving me errors. Can you give me the code for this table please? I am on mysql version 4.0.22-standard. thanks

That's the problem! There's no "create a banner" option. The only thing on the page is "You can create an banner on these page."

The problem for me was my Firewall. Norton Internet Security was screwing it up.
