Yeah in the same spot as I did mine probably ... although it might be different since your using a different theme.
Let me check where mine was at.
Oh while I am thinking about it you should set up your alternate ads to go to Amazon. That way instead of the public service ads that you don't get paid for you can display a amazon ad instead. |

OK in my template directory for my theme there is a viewtopic_body.tpl file which I put this code on the second line after the first table tag.
| Code: |
<tr>
<td align="center" valign="middle" colspan="2">
<script type="text/javascript"><!--
google_ad_client = "pub-8946680209753321";
google_alternate_ad_url = "http://www.mediagab.com/blog/netflix-ad.html";
google_ad_width = 728;
google_ad_height = 90;
google_ad_format = "728x90_as";
google_ad_channel ="2506571116";
google_ad_type = "text";
google_color_border = "CCCCCC";
google_color_bg = "FFFFFF";
google_color_link = "000000";
google_color_url = "666666";
google_color_text = "333333";
//--></script>
<script type="text/javascript"
src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js">
</script>
</td>
</tr> |
That will only add the ad to the top of the Topic page and not on the rest of the forum...I like that as it gives more relevant ads instead of just ads to hosting and other types php bb's.
If you want it on the whole forum you can just add your code to the last line of overall_header.tpl in the same directory.
Let me know if you need help.

| Navigate to where you have the script installed and see what happens. |

That's cool but also wierd...how is that a Mod for phpBB...it is so separate from the board it isn't even funny.
The only thing it uses is the database for the login.
I don't know how useful that might be to you on this forum SWM. |

| yeah, like i said, just testing it and looking for input, i see ZERO benefit for it, the guy who wrote it said it was specifically done so for the people who just needed to have this ability, wasnt meant to be fully integrated, i guess the ACTUAL attachments Mod is a fairly tricky install so this was made as an easy install/setup alternative. wont suit me though. |
