  • Adding ads to Tikiwiki
    dogshed

    So how do I do it?
    Do I use site identity?
    Do I make a module for each kind of ad?
    Do I edit the theme?
    Do I edit something else?

    I want a half banner at the top.
    I want some smaller ads on either side.
    Maybe one somewhere in the center or at the
    end.

      1. Create banner zone and put your banner there on Admin → Banners
      2. Put the on SI and enable the checkbox "Site ads and banners" and Publish checkbox


      Example code to put in the Content area:

      Copy to clipboard
      <div style="margin-top: 2px; margin-right: 3px; position: absolute; top: 0; right: 0;">{banner zone=Firefox}</div>


      For left/right column you can use another banner zone banners using the in custom module which you have to create on Admin → Modules.

        I got this:
        Fatal error: Smarty error: in evaluated template line 1: syntax error: expecting '=' after attribute name 'top' (Smarty_Compiler.class.php, line 1555) in /home/dogshed/public_html/lib/smarty/libs/Smarty.class.php on line 1095

        Do we need the locations if we are using site identity?

          it needed id=something
          I thought that was optional

              That didn't work either.

                apostrophes around 'home top banner'
