Placing ads on IPB

[exneo]

Hello, I have installed IPB 2.0.4 and I don't know how to place the corporate ads. I've tried placing them in the board headers, wrappers, etc. but all I get is a bunch of text. Could someone please tell me how to install the ads in IPB 2.0.4?? Thanks

1. Go to - ACP ---> Under Skins and Templates select Skin Manager ---> Click Edit root skin HTML on the skin you want the ads placed ---> All Global HTML ---> global_board_header

2. Find

<div id="logostrip">

3. Replace with -

<div id="logostrip">
<div style="float:right;padding:5px">
{insert advert code here}

</div>

Replace {insert advert code here} with your ad code.

Thats it you are done...

I have tried it, and it still doesn't work. Is there any chance you could edit it for me? Thanks a lot.

Thats all there is to it...The place where it says {insert advert code here} put in your ad code. riginal:

 

[exneo]

Thanks, but I managed to do that part. My problem is when I insert the ad code. I have the corporate plan, and this is what the ad.php file says:

<?php

echo "Large Banner (Corporate)<br><br>\n";

echo "<script language='JavaScript' type='text/javascript' src='http://x10hosting.com/advert/adx.js'></script>\n";
echo "<script language='JavaScript' type='text/javascript'>\n";
echo "<!--\n";
echo "if (!document.phpAds_used) document.phpAds_used = ',';\n";
echo "phpAds_random = new String (Math.random());\n";
echo "phpAds_random = phpAds_random.substring(2,11);\n";
echo "document.write (\"<\" + \"script language='JavaScript' type='text/javascript' src='\");\n";
echo "document.write (\"http://x10hosting.com/advert/adjs.php?n=\" + phpAds_random);\n";
echo "document.write (\"&amp;what=zone:1&amp;target=_blank\");\n";
echo "document.write (\"&amp;exclude=\" + document.phpAds_used);\n";
echo "if (document.referrer)\n";
echo "document.write (\"&amp;referer=\" + escape(document.referrer));\n";
echo "document.write (\"'><\" + \"/script>\");\n";
echo "//-->\n";
echo "</script><noscript><a href='http://x10hosting.com/advert/adclick.php?n=a7fb3e9d' target='_blank'><img src='http://x10hosting.com/advert/adview.php?what=zone:1&amp;n=a7fb3e9d' border='0' alt=''></a></noscript>\n";

echo "<br><br><br><br>\n";





echo "Text Link(Advanced)<br><br>\n";

echo "<script language='JavaScript' type='text/javascript' src='http://x10hosting.com/advert/adx.js'></script>\n";
echo "<script language='JavaScript' type='text/javascript'>\n";
echo "<!--\n";
echo "if (!document.phpAds_used) document.phpAds_used = ',';\n";
echo "phpAds_random = new String (Math.random());\n";
echo "phpAds_random = phpAds_random.substring(2,11);\n";
echo "document.write (\"<\" + \"script language='JavaScript' type='text/javascript' src='\");\n";
echo "document.write (\"http://x10hosting.com/advert/adjs.php?n=\" + phpAds_random);\n";
echo "document.write (\"&amp;what=zone:3&amp;target=_blank\");\n";
echo "document.write (\"&amp;exclude=\" + document.phpAds_used);\n";
echo "if (document.referrer)\n";
echo "document.write (\"&amp;referer=\" + escape(document.referrer));\n";

echo "</script><noscript><a href='http://x10hosting.com/advert/adclick.php?n=a915c788' target='_blank'><img src='http://x10hosting.com/advert/adview.php?what=zone:3&amp;n=a915c788' border='0' alt=''></a></noscript>\n";
echo "\n";
echo "\n";

?>
