Static Bottom Banner

Using Zen Cart Version 1.3.9h

I have looked and looked in the faq's and nothing answers my question.

Here is my question.

I want a static banner, (which I have created) to show on the bottom of all my pages. I don't want rotating banners or the banners that come with the regular install of zencart. How can I make each page show the same banner (my custom banner) I do not want to use banner manager in the admin panel. I simply want the same banner on each page.

Thanks for any direction you may have!
Jessica and Mark

Re: Static Bottom Banner

Easiest way would be to place the HTML of the image at the bottom of includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE_NAME/common/tpl_footer.php. I'd wrap it in a <div> so you can move it around if necessary in the stylesheet.

I'm not sure why you don't want to use the built-in Banner Manager, though. It's pretty powerful once you figure out how it works.

Re: Static Bottom Banner

If your banner "down the bottom" is to be static then logic tells me that there would be only one single banner ... in the footer - am I right?

In that case you just need to set up your banner in admin (banner manager) to be the one and only banner in the footer.

In other words: don't assign any other banner to the footer position.

Re: Static Bottom Banner

Frank,

I thank you for responding!!!!! Im so confused by the banner manager that I just wanted an easy easy way to make it work.

I am one of those that need handholding when something gets me confounded and trying to use the banner manager did just that.

Im still not even sure how to make it work like you told me but Im going to give it a go!

Thanks so much!
