Editing VBulletin Code

I just installed VBulletin and set it up, I am at a loss trying to add some ads, the code is SOOOO CONFUSING!!!!!

I wanted to put an ad block in the upper right hand side, like on this site. Anyone know where to stick the code?

 

Have you tried asking vbulletin.com since that is why they are there? You have a dedicated support line which you paid for. Someone may know here, but you should always know you can ask them on vbulletin.com

 

I did it myself. You can find the information on the vBulletin website, which is where they directed me once I ask.

 

You just have to edit the header template file.

In your admin cp go to styles and templates ->style manager->edit templates->header

Within the first lines you will see your logo code, denoted by <!-- logo -->.

Find

<td align="$stylevar[left]"><a href="$vboptions[forumhome].php$session[sessionurl_q]"><img src="$stylevar[titleimage]" border="0" alt="[COLOR="Red"]Your webpage name[/COLOR]" /></a></td>

Code (markup):

and immediately below it enter

<td align="$stylevar[right]"> Your advertising code  </td>

Code (markup):

Make sure this is all within the table row <tr> that your logo is in. The code immediately after you banner code (you don't have to enter this it should already be there) should be

</tr> 
</table> 
<!--logo-->

Code (markup):

Hope this helps

Vbulletin isn't confusing once you get used to it. The template system actually is very useful. Brush up (or learn) your html and php skills and dealing with vbulletin will be fairly easy.
