ads in the top right hand corner

I would like to display ad's in the top right hand corner of my forum "the same as digitalpoint"

You guys here have links there, so can you tell me exactly how its done please, and just where to put the code

Im not the best at modifiying vbulletin

You may want to think about installing your own AdServer, I prefer phpAdsNew.
Welcome to phpAdsNew / Open-source ad server

In the default vBulletin style, in your header template (see in bold):

Code:

<!-- logo -->
<a name="top"></a>
<table border="0" width="$stylevar[outertablewidth]" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" align="center">
<tr>
<td align="$stylevar[left]"><a href="$vboptions[forumhome].php$session[sessionurl_q]"><img src="$stylevar[titleimage]" border="0" alt="$vboptions[bbtitle]" /></a></td>
<td align="$stylevar[right]">
Stick your ad here!
</td>
</tr>
</table>
<!-- /logo -->
<!-- content table -->
$spacer_open
$_phpinclude_output

thank you very much juan

i use CSS to display my ad absolute positioned, so that the ad code is in the footer template, and loads last. view the source code on HS to see an example

Code:

<!-- logo --> <a name="top"></a> <table border="0" width="$stylevar[outertablewidth]" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" align="center"> <tr> <td align="$stylevar[left]" background="<A href="http://www.traderslaboratory.com/forums/images/kirsch/misc/banner_02.jpg"><a">http://www.traderslaboratory.com/forums/images/kirsch/misc/banner_02.jpg"><a href="$vboptions[forumhome].php$session[sessionurl_q]"><img src="$stylevar[titleimage]" border="0" alt="$vboptions[bbtitle]" /></a>
</td>  </tr> </table> <!-- /logo -->  <!-- content table --> $spacer_open  $_phpinclude_output

How would I add the banner in this code? I tried adding it after </td> but did not work. Any help?

Code:

 background="<A onclick="urchinTracker ('/outgoing/http_www_traderslaboratory_com_forums_images_kirsch_misc_banner_02_jpg');" href="http://www.traderslaboratory.com/forums/images/kirsch/misc/banner_02.jpg"><a">

WTF is that? lol that's not html



Throw this in your footer template just above </html>:

Code:

<div id="adframe">
 PUT (valid) AD CODE HERE, such as:
<a href="sponser.com"><img src="sponsor.jpg" alt="sponsor" /></a>
</div>

put this in your CSS file at the bottom in the custom box:

Code:

#adframe {
    position: absolute;
    top: 5px;
    right: 10px;
    margin: 0;
    padding: 2px
        z-index: 99;
}

Ignore all that table malarky.

Who use phpAdsNew? i've tried to install it but i have some problems how to set the campaign could someone help me?

Thanks

i know this is an old thread but im trying to exactly this (with phpadsnew), but with vb4. the header template is very different and im not sure hwo to get it in adn to align right, everywhere i place it, it just shows up under the main left logo/title image

Edit template
Ad Location Templates
ad_global_header2

Add code:

Code:

<div style="float: right;">
<!-- ad code here -->
</div>
<br style="clear:both;" />

doesn't look quite right, can you have a looksie
-Link removed-

That is where the ad template is located, under the logo. Since you used an extended height logo, that obviously won't work.

You may need to use negative margins or absolute positioning.


try:

Code:

<div style="margin-top:-75px; float:right;">

or

Code:

<div style="position:absolute; top:75px; right: 10px;">

You may need to tweak those numbers to fit better.

thanks i used

Code:

<div style="margin-top:-75px; float:right;">

i was reading that vB 4 has an ad management feature, but cant seem to find wehre to management from, are you by any chance aware of that function?

Sorry, i have limited experience with vb4 as of yet. I know there is a control panel for the ads right above the template nav item, but i haven't played with it.

no problem
you have been very helpful

thank you again
