Sandro,

 

yes, you can create as many banner groups as you wish and locate the new banner group anywhere you want. You don't need to edit banner manager, you will use the admin banner manager as it is, but you will create code that matches the newly created banner group.

 

For example, a banner group of 120x240 for the column can be created, then simply write the code for the column and place it in the appropriate column.

Chris,

 

Thanks for the reply, but what i don't understand is that what you mean by "writing the code" ? you mean in the html column i should insert the code there?

Sandro,

 

For example, this code was created and named panel_top2.php for a banner across the full width of the top of the store (right under the header)

 

 

<center>

<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0">

<tr>

<td class="banner_02"><?php if ($banner = tep_banner_exists('dynamic', 'banner2')) { echo tep_display_banner('static', $banner); }?></td>

</tr>

</table>

</center>

 

I then added this to index.php:

 

<?php include(DIR_WS_BOXES . 'panel_top2.php');?>

 

In the stylesheet.css I added this class to ensure the banner was positioned properly.

 

.banner_02 {

text-align: center;

padding:0px 0px 5px 0px;

}

 

 

All that is left to do is create the banner image and install it using the banner manager in the admin using Banner Group Banner2

 

 

 

Hope that helps.
