OK,

i have install the V2 and must say something

1. You must say the Users that they must create a folder called banner into /templates/theStyle/images/
2. I can´t select Yes and No to activate the Banners  *EDIT* It works, thanks to Loda
3. Is there a way to include the V1??

I have this code

Code: [Select]

<script src="http://www.sponsor4cash.de/script/b_script.php?id=1302&pixel=468x60"></script> <noscript><a href="http://www.sponsor4cash.de/script/b_klick.php?id=1302&pixel=468x60&url=noscript" target="_blank"> <img src="http://www.sponsor4cash.de/script/b_banner.php?id=1302&pixel=468x60&url=noscript" border=0></a></noscript>
With V1 i can insert this not with V2.

Let's remain calm ... yesterday was just a dream !!!

You're absolutely right. I forgot some steps and will be instantly corrected.

As for :

1. You must say the Users that they must create a folder called banner into /templates/theStyle/images/

Actually, it's templates/<your_template>/images/banner you have to create since the new general function from includes/functions.php file gathers the path and banner name from there.

2. I can´t select Yes and No to activate the Banners  *EDIT* It works, thanks to Loda

I don't see the correction from here . . .

[ EDIT ]

Please note that, between the first version and the second version, the SELECT Form from the settings page has been adapted into one function rather than two seperated ones (since it was useless to do so). That said, I have just updated my bolded message from my first post regarding the v1.0 and v2.0 status.

3. Is there a way to include the V1??

Please read the footer of my first post (last line). The reason has been mentionned already.

With V1 i can insert this not with V2.

Because it is gathered from JS statement and this version does not have this functionnality (yet). However, this has been thought before releasing the v2.0. The good news is, I intend to make this available within the next release of v2.01.

[TheOracle]

Update :

First topic has now been theoricly and technically updated.

Additional note : I just realized the reason why your screenshot involves empty "yes / no" SELECT form question. It is for the fact that I have only stated the "setting_name" but I did NOT forget to mention the "setting_value" (but I had a blank  ). Althought, what I forgot to do was to get back to the topic once the information was discovered from my SETTINGS_TABLE. 

My apologize for this missing information. I will make the update right away in the mean time.

This where Great. In V1 i can insert a JS function. In V2 not

But the Mod is very good. 2 seperate Banner and Urls i can show...

Another Question: Where is the Homepage from TheOracle ??? Can i visit it???

[TheOracle]

Update :

The SETTING_TABLE instructions has just been updated. Again, my apologize for the mis-information.

I admit that, by expanding the MOD, it also brought a certain limitation at the same time. However, more ideas has been developped as I intend, like I said, to implement it in the future release.

I'm glad you approved. Two different functions operating from the header and footer of your site. Isn't that amazing ? !

Another Question: Where is the Homepage from TheOracle ??? Can i visit it???

Arg, I've been hit !! 

The homepage is now gone since about 2 months (web hosting company issues). Right now, I'm operating 4images under my local test server tower and it's still working great (under Linux rather Windows now).

However, V@no used to post me a link where I could of post some screenshots but, even by searching for it, I can't seem to find it on the forum so ... right now - it is all theoricly speaking.

TheOracle could you please write an auto-install script for db-fields like V@no did?
I can't use PhpMyAdmin on my host and I really don't know how to add info to DB in another way =(

I thought about that lately and I'm beginning to consider this idea. In fact, I even thought of creating a full detailed installation presentation (parsed into your template folder with temporary HTML files - which only ADMIN level will have access to). This way, users won't have to worry about leaving any installation files behind as all new SQL fields should be initialized before the end of the installation from now on.

This planification is currently under process as I'm thinking, graphicly, how the interface could be improved.

[ EDIT ]

In the mean time, since you asked nicely, I have also modified step 5, from my first post, as an alternative solution in order, for you, (and others) to install these SQL fields in a more efficient way.
