Add a Banner to my web side

[Guest finulu1976]

How do I add a graphic that clicks to another page on the right and left sides. This may seem simple, but I'm having the worst luck...

Thanks in advance... blink.gif

Im using to Killer skin.

Edit the global templates.

There is documentation on the skins on CubeCartForums.org.

Do you have any experience of HTML?

No

Then I definitely recommend either Googling for some HTML tutorials, or visiting the third-party forum to hire a developer to help you accomplish what you need to do. There is a lot of documentation over in cubecartforums.org to help guide you around the skins to find the correct templates, however it does not teach you HTML and CSS styling.

Thank you, I can handle it according to the instructions there to upload. But it's unfortunately am not. If someone gave me instructions for the procedure, I certainly managed. :blink:

Hi there! I have experience with html and css, and I'd love to know how to do it. I managed to add a banner to the top of my cubecart thru skins/Classic/styleTemplates/global/index.tpl , but then the search box went down a few lines and couldn't correct that issue. Well, I didn't bore to change anything in the css files.

Finulu1976, here's a fast hack that will maybe help you:

1-) First of all, BACKUP the file skins/Killer/styleTemplates/global/index.tpl

2-) Now you've "backuped" the file, you can do some "experiments".

2a-) I suppose the left section of your cubecart ends in {LANGUAGE}

2b-) I suppose the right section of your cubecart ends in {MAIL}

3-) RIGHT AFTER each

(language to be on the left section, right after mail to become in the right section,

you can add white boxes with the content you prefer. Here's the code to add for EACH box with content inside it (you can even add a logo rotator to a box, but without html and css knowledge... )

Example to add a banner with clickable link to one of the sides, left or right, you choose (BUT limited to the size of each part, of course):

<div class="boxContent">

<span class="txtContentTitle"><a href="yourbannerlink.com" target=_blank title="WHATEVER">

<img src="http://mysite.com/images/BANNER.jpg" border=0></a></font></a></b></span>

</div>

I used that to add a Contact Us link:

<div class="boxContent">

<span class="txtContentTitle"><a href="index.php?act=contact" target=_self title="Contact Us">

<img src="http://mysite.com/images/emailittle.jpg" border=0></a>

<span class="txtContentTitle"><a href="index.php?act=contact" title="Contact Us"><font size=2 color=navy><b>Contact Us</a></font></a></b></span>

</div>

And used that to add a catalog download:

<div class="boxContent">

<span class="txtContentTitle"><a href="http://mysite.com/catalog.php" target=_blank title="Please download the catalog of our store in pdf - and consult it offline!">

<img src="http://mysite.com/images/pdf.gif" border=0></a>

<a href="http://mysite.com/catalog.php" target=_blank title="Download the catalog of our store in pdf - and consult it offline!">

<font size=2 color=navy><b>Download Catalog</font></a></b></span>

</div>

Well, understand I wouldn't lend you my car if you didn't know how to drive, got it? So it's better you ask a friend to do so for you, that if you don't want to pay someone (not me, I'm not offering, ok?).
