ads in a phpbb3 forum

Hello,

I keep trying to place ads in my new forum that I want to release but I keep getting this error response
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in tpl_DVGFX2_overall_footer.html.php on line 16

here is the file

"<!-- IF not S_IS_BOT -->{RUN_CRON_TASK}<!-- ENDIF -->
</div>

they didnt say where to put the ad code at all, where should I place it?

 

Not sure about the fix for this problem. But it seems that the error is coming from the file where either {U_ACP} or {L_ACP} is called. Also you will need to "Purge Cache" after making the changes in the code otherwise the changes will not be reflected. You can purge it from admin panel.

Here is your error

<!-- IF U_ACP --><span class="gensmall">[ <a href="{U_ACP}">{L_ACP}</a> ]</span><br /><br /><!-- ENDIF -->

 

i also needed to bring in some google ads, but no success .... not even an error , only they don`t show up ...

purged the cache, everything ... hmm... any ideas ?

 

What code are you entering?
