Banner Ads

[Guest]

Hi,

 

Ive recently installed oscommerce and the banner ads were working fine. Then all of a sudden the ads totally disappeared and im not usre how to add them back. I have them setup in the banner page in the admin panel correctly. But they dont show up in the footer of the site.

 

 

Thanks

Hi, do you have any ad blocking software (such as adblock+ for FF) installed on your browser? I once spent ages scratching my head over why our affiliate banners weren't loading until I realised it was that! :)

You might want to look at the group name for the image (which it belongs to). If you change the group name (assuming you did) the banners won't display. I had a similar problem, but I needed to add multiple banners, hence changed the group names the banner images belong to.

 

THe code to display banners is normally found in /includes/footer.php and has 468x50 is hard coded into it.

 

  if ($banner = tep_banner_exists('dynamic', '468x50')) {
?>
<br>
<table border="0" width="100%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
 <tr>
<td align="center"><?php echo tep_display_banner('static', $banner); ?></td>
 </tr>
</table>
<?php
 }
?>

 

Maybe this solves your problem
