cmbyrne Posted December 3, 2004 Share Posted December 3, 2004 Hi all, I can't seem to figure out how to add a new banner. It's usally the simplest things I can't figure out, so please don't laugh if this is one of them. This is what i was provided with for the banner: <a href="https://www.ixwebhosting.com/cgi-bin/affiliates/clickthru.cgi?id=cmbyrne"> and <img src="https://www.ixwebhosting.com/templates/ixwebhosting/images/banner/ix_004.gif" border=0></a> but i don't know where to put what :/ And yes, I did read the knowledge base. Your help is greatly appreciated! Christina Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted December 4, 2004 Share Posted December 4, 2004 Just tinker around with it a bit - - it's ok if it not everything makes sense immediately, but you've gotta be willing to experiment a bit. :) -jared Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmbyrne Posted December 10, 2004 Author Share Posted December 10, 2004 I want to add this banner at the footer. If someone could please tell me how to do this it would be greatly appreciated.

I have no idea if I'm even doing it right :/ Christina (p.s. i added the banner, now just need to place it in the footer) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So what do i have to put into footer.php for the banner to show up on my site? I can't just add that code where i want it in my store as you said above....
