Virtual Assistant Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 I am trying to add a module to the right side of the page for small adds with links to outside url's. I disabled the advertising block some time ago. I have re-installed it, configured it, cleared smarty cache, browser cache etc. But do not see the advertising block on my page, http://www.briancozy.com. Any suggestions for fixing the advertising block, or another solution for a new column on right side of page? Cheers & Thanks Karen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dh42 Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 Did you transplant the module to the right column hook, in the positions? Edit: Actually it is on the page, that is what the paypal logo is in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Virtual Assistant Posted March 29, 2012 Author Share Posted March 29, 2012 No Transplanting, I am scared to touch that. Any suggestions as to how to add a column ? Could I Add more images under the Paypal logo without messing thing up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dh42 Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 Hmm. Look in the positions, is the block advertising module already there under the cart module? If so, on the main modules page go to advertising and ad a picture from the advertising config menu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Virtual Assistant Posted March 29, 2012 Author Share Posted March 29, 2012 Yes, I did this, the image is in the block advertising folder, although tit does not show on line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dh42 Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 But is it hooked on the positions? From looking at the source it is not trying to load the block. It should be hooked under the cart module. Also do you have your site set to compile and the caching turned off? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Virtual Assistant Posted March 29, 2012 Author Share Posted March 29, 2012 Yes, I have the compile and cache correct. Maybe the hooks. I will try that tomorrow. Thanks, will post with results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Virtual Assistant Posted March 29, 2012 Author Share Posted March 29, 2012 So I am getting there. The Paypal logo is in payment block, so I left it as is. I transplanted the advertising block under payment block as you suggested, then I edited the block-advertising.tpl to resize the image. Now I am trying to figure how to duplicate the advertising block, as I would like to add more images with links under Virtual Assistant image. I wonder if I could add more images in the .tpl? http://www.braincozy.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Virtual Assistant Posted March 29, 2012 Author Share Posted March 29, 2012 In order to add more images with links in advertising block, I tried this: In advertising block.tpl & advertising block.php I duplicated the <div> containing the image and duplicated the <form> script. Worked but I did not not have the image link correct. Don't have any more time to mess with it. There must be an easier way. Any thoughts are welcome.
