I've done the drill with the FAQ's, followed instructions, looked for guidance on the forum but still can't seem to get coop ads to appear on my site www.sagetips.com. The site is PHP based. I've tried the step four PHP code both via a footer file and directly inserting into a page file without results. Any ideas? Thanks.
Is the permissions correct for each of the files? The ad_network.php file should be 755 and the ad_network_ads.txt should be 777.
chgmod 777 for the ad file? insert a character before the var $...[0] see if it shows up. PM me the source and I have a look but it will be tomorrow M
I've never used chgmod. Is this a simple thing or should I seek help from a more experienced person before moving on?
if you can log into your account using telnet its dead simple. If you don't know what that means then I can talk you through it
Are you on a linux server or IIS? With linux is so much easier, just use your FTP client. IIS requires a slightly different approach.
Hi, try starting a DOS window and typing: telnet www.yourdomainname.com and logging in with your master username and password
like mnemtsas said you need to change permissions on the .txt file. Every file has it's own permission and normally web pages pictures etc are set to read only so noone from the outside can change them. The .txt file needs to have read and write permission so the script can change the ads every hour. In UNIX the command is chgmod you may be able to use homested to change this hunt for security or file permissions. Best of luck M
