    Default Banner Image Maps

    Is it possible to create an image map for the sidebox banners? Also, can banners be assigned to specific categories, so they don't show up throughout the catalog. Thanks, in advance, for any assistance!

    Only for a static banner not for the random rotating type

    Also, can banners be assigned to specific categories, so they don't show up throughout the catalog.
    With some crafty if else similar to this in the sidebox code
    (credit to Clyde)
    Code:
      if (in_array($current_page_base,explode(",",'login,checkout_shipping,checkout_payment,checkout_confirmation,checkout_success')) ) {
      $show_blank_sidebox = false;
      }

    The banners will be static. How do I change a banner from a simple uploaded image to one with a map? I'm familiar with creating image maps on html pages, but not in Zen Cart.

    The catalog is actually a showcase, without any shopping involved. However, we want to have specific ad banners connected to categories. For example, category listing 1 would have one set of static banner ads, category 2 would have a different set.

    If all you seek is a link....look at the admin > tools > banner manager > select > edit > and look for >Banner URL:

    This is much easier than a map and for only a link a map is over kill

    I have 1 image that requires 2 links, otherwise I could use the built in banner link feature.
