Hello John,

Open styles/prosilver/ad_banner_footer.html, and change the text below 'ADD YOUR BANNER HERE'

Code: Select all

<!-- IF not S_HIDE_ADS -->
    <div id="stg_ads" style="text-align:center; margin: 10px 0;">
    	<div class="<!-- IF SCRIPT_NAME eq "viewtopic" -->navbar<!-- ELSE -->forumbg<!-- ENDIF -->" style="width:750px; margin:0 auto;">
            <div class="inner"><span class="corners-top"><span></span></span>
                ADD YOUR BANNER HERE
            <span class="corners-bottom"><span></span></span></div>
        </div>
    </div>
    <!-- ENDIF -->
or for subsilver2

Code: Select all

<!-- IF not S_HIDE_ADS -->
	<div style="text-align:center; width:100%;">
        <table class="tablebg" cellspacing="1" width="734" style="margin: 0 auto;">
            <tr>
                <td class="row1">
                    ADD YOUR BANNER HERE
                </td>
            </tr>
        </table>
    </div>
    <!-- ENDIF -->
Remember to add with html, not BBcode.

The most simplest way of doing it would be open notepad, and copy and paste the code in the second post depending on your template used. Add the html of your banner or text, then save in notepad as ad_banner_footer.html then overwrite the file on the server in it's location.

Go into admin and refresh template and you will see the new ad footer.

that all seems beyond me unfortunately.is there no way i can just put announcements as adverts say on photobucket and have them shown instead of the ones that being shown.When u talk html it is quite
beyond me to understand a word you are saying.The advert box is there i just wanna put something of my own in.

Alright enter your photobucket html code into where it says ADD YOUR BANNER HERE, leave the rest of the file how it is.
