rhodgkiss2001 Posted March 15, 2006 Posted March 15, 2006 hi, I have sucsribed my website to anothers and need to add a link back to theirs. This is what I need to add but, just dno't know where... I'd really appreciate your help.
Darklings Posted March 15, 2006 Posted March 15, 2006 huh, I guess that doesnt realy matter where. Most people put it on a page they make that contains links. Prefarably called 'links'. Mostly find at the end of a navigationbar as it leads people off of your website. So it depends on how your shop is made/looks like. From your question i understand you have no links at all on your site yet. So, is this a banner link (that you can put at the bottom of your site, as an affiliate)? is this a link that needs to come on a page containing all links, maybe in category's or something? is this a link you want to be viewed everywhere on your website? In order for a question to be answered correctly and fast, pls formulate a good question with as much details as you can. Kind Regards, Tom Even in this dark place, yes, I am afraid of my own shadow.

rhodgkiss2001 Posted March 15, 2006 Author Posted March 15, 2006 Right lovely thanks. My website is www.sugar-and-spice.uk.com and I have signed up with www.candywrapwarehouse.com they have asked me to put a link back to their shop for me to keep my ad on their website. This is the email I got from them.. Your website will be reviewed by our team shortly. We will contact you soon as it is validated. Please add a link back to us on your website. The link back details can be found at http://www.candywrapwarehouse.com/html/fin...erid=R598388659. This is what I wanted to add 468 X 60 Banner <a href="http://www.candywrapwarehouse.com/oneadmin/linksdir/home.track.php?referid=R598388659"><img src="http://www.candywrapwarehouse.com/oneadmin/_files/linksdir/cwwnew468x60.jpg" border=0></a> I was thinking of putting the image at the bottom of my homepage? thanks very much Ronda
Darklings Posted March 15, 2006 Posted March 15, 2006 Hi Ronda, Go to your admin, 'Tools' => Banner Manager Choose a Banner Title of your own In Banner URL: type: http://www.candywrapwarehouse.com/oneadmin...erid=R598388659 In Banner Group select the size, or make a new one For the image, i guess its better to download it from this location: http://www.candywrapwarehouse.com/oneadmin...wwnew468x60.jpg and then upload it using the Browse button after Image. I guess the other options or just options and dont need to be filled in. However, i'm just guessing here, since i never used this before. Good luck, hope this helps, if not, let us know.

rhodgkiss2001 Posted March 15, 2006 Author Posted March 15, 2006 Fabulous, that worked a treat, only thing I haven't been able to do is make is smaller. I put another size in (not sure what size to put though) 200x20 and the image didn't appear at all? 468x50 has worked but, I was thinking I might like it smaller.
Darklings Posted March 15, 2006 Posted March 15, 2006 I have no idea how the resise of the bannermanagement works.. most likey, and best way i guess, would be to manualy resize the image in your favorite edit program, like pain(t) or photoshop.... Resize to the wanted size and (re)upload, prob make a new group to with the given size... But realy not sure here! Just guessing! Even in this dark place, yes, I am afraid of my own shadow.

rhodgkiss2001 Posted March 15, 2006 Author Posted March 15, 2006 You're a star, I have put the gift.gif image in buttons and it has worked. Now which file was it that I made this image change in and I'll go check for that code ?> which needs removing. Many many thanks.
rhodgkiss2001 Posted March 15, 2006 Author Posted March 15, 2006 is this the code? <?php echo tep_draw_form('quick_find', tep_href_link(FILENAME_ADVANCED_SEARCH_RESULT, '', 'NONSSL', false), 'get'); echo tep_draw_input_field('keywords', BOX_HEADING_SEARCH, 'size="10" maxlength="30" style="width: ' . (BOX_WIDTH-30) . 'px"') . ' ' . tep_hide_session_id() . tep_image_submit('gifts.gif', BOX_HEADING_SEARCH); echo '</form>'; ?><body link="#800000" vlink="#663300">
rhodgkiss2001 Posted March 15, 2006 Author Posted March 15, 2006 I removed the ?> on the last line and now I get Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '<' in /www/s/sugarand0221/htdocs/includes/boxes/header_search.php on line 5 It's totally mucked up, can you help me put it back :-(
rhodgkiss2001 Posted March 15, 2006 Author Posted March 15, 2006 Geez, I'm sorry... I put back what I have so now I just get the extra ?> www.sugar-and-spice.uk.com So it wasn't the bit of code I thought it was. I'll wait to see if you answer before messing any more
Darklings Posted March 15, 2006 Posted March 15, 2006 Hi, back from lunch ;) can you paste the whole code of what you pasted before? The page containing this code: <?php echo tep_draw_form('quick_find', tep_href_link(FILENAME_ADVANCED_SEARCH_RESULT, '', 'NONSSL', false), 'get'); echo tep_draw_input_field('keywords', BOX_HEADING_SEARCH, 'size="10" maxlength="30" style="width: ' . (BOX_WIDTH-30) . 'px"') . ' ' . tep_hide_session_id() . tep_image_submit('gifts.gif', BOX_HEADING_SEARCH); echo '</form>'; ?><body link="#800000" vlink="#663300"> Even in this dark place, yes, I am afraid of my own shadow.
