[3.2][3.3][RC] Random Banner

Post by Administrator »

Extension Name: Random Banner Image Image Image
Author: HiFiKabin

Extension Description: Adds banners to your forum header. Each banner is randomly loaded and can direct to its own URL.

Notes:
  • Random in this instance means a random selection at each page load. There is no reference to any previously loaded banner so there will be times when the same banner is loaded several times in succession.
  • The banner must be a standard image extension eg .jpg .gif .png etc
  • If you host the banner on your own server, create a directory in the images folder in your forum root (where config.php is) called random_banner in which to upload them. To ensure the image appears on all pages the URL for the image will then be http://myforum.com/images/random_banner/image.gif
  • The banner will scale to fit the device being used.
  • Each banner's link can be ignored, opened in the same or new tab
  • Compatible with my Google Search Extension
  • You can overlay the existing Site Logo if you wish
  • For best visual results ensure the banners are all the same dimensions.
Language:
  • EN
  • Language Pack nl
Extension Version: 3.2.0-RC4

Supported Styles:
  • prosilver
