Please attach your index.template.php and your index.css. I'll have a look at it for you.

thanks willemjan

[willemjan]

There seem to be a few things missing. But I don't have my software at hand, so can't help you atm. If no-one has helped you by tomorrow, I'll get back at you. Because then I do have the software I need

I still need index.css

Just a FYI, as far as I know many are have problems with the Ad mods, and I wound think real hard and read up before adding any type mod to your form system. There are several other simpler mods, that will allow you to place ads, we have discussed this before here,

Allot of mods are not even ready for RC4 unless you  do some hard coding changes like you asking and this will be a contiguous problems for you in the future and or if you ever want to change/update themes.

although this not a mod support site, I have allot of experience with mods as others here do and, please read up before you jump into to this.

I would also let us or others know what it is you are trying to do exactly, so we can  try to save you some serious troubles or problems!

I don't mod any theme to fit a mod!

I agree with you on that one. I tought that the package manager gave an error in index.template.php, and thats why he couldn't install it. So then it's just some adding of code in the right place.

Did you install it allready, or not?

[Sispro]

the only thing i use this mod for is to add my banner logo at the top of the site nothing else

if there is a way to add it with out the mod please let me know cause i'll take it out righ away.

also here is my index.css

You can place ad banners in the New fader if they are not too large like 648X60 and try to keep them the same size, you can also place google ads there!

in your admin under News and News letters, you will need to add center code to them all!

Another way is visit the SMF site and pick up a small mode called Global headers and footer mod or something like that it's named. To place ads at the top and bottom center.

The other way is to use a portal system to ad them on the side and center panels!

Yes there are ways, but please read and learn some before doing it and always back up your stuff first! if not sure then give details and ask!

Maxx

okay then now what about the theme it self if you look at the theme home page that i have attch. here you have to look very closely but you can see where it says my bookmarks and so on. how do i fix that so all the words or links what ever you want to call them so they are at the top with the rest of them
