    Default Side banner links not working?

    I am building a site for a client. This is not my first time using Zen Cart, but it is the first time I am using ad banners. I have configured the banner manager, and activated the sidebar banner group. It seems to be recording views and clicks, and I can actually see the ad, but the link is not working. Digging a little deeper, and I see that the Zen ad links are not working either. The links are listed correctly in the banner manager. Not sure why this would not work? Any help?

    Default Re: Side banner links not working?

    Could you switch to the Classic Template and see if things are working on your banners?

    Have you changed the default banners that came with Zen Cart in any way that are also displaying and not working?

    Default Re: Side banner links not working?

    I should have thought about switching out to the default template. I did this and of course it works fine. Which led me to test the other links in my version of the template and they did not work either. This led me to wonder about my template mods and so I backtracked the problem to an incomplete template install. I built this site using a version of Red Passion that I modded from another client. It looks like I missed copying over an over-ride file from someplace, or made a change in this modded mod and broke something. Anyway, I did a clean install of Red Passion, and then carefully retooled the style sheets again and all is well. Just another example of how a short cut didn't really save me any time at all. :-/

    Thanks again!

    Thanks for the update that you were able to test the problem with the Classic Template to help diagnose this to be a problem with your Custom template ...

    Glad you were able to get this back together ...
