Banner locations help

Hi all, what I want to do is place a banner of payment options in my footer section going across. However I can't seem to the find a suitable method on how to this. I tried place the image in a banner-footer 1, 2, and 3 however none of these actually place the image in the location I wish. Do I need to change the code in my php files to include a banner location?

Here is a copy of my site. http://ziggyart.co.uk/ I wish to place a secure payments logo in the footer above the pages.

Thanks.

Try creating the banner in
admin > tools > banner manager

You can edit the Zen Cart banner > wide Banner > entry

Then admin > config > layout settings > Banner Display Groups - Footer Position 2 > Wide-Banners

KenshiroU, I have been trying to do the same thing tonight; I just came to the forum, and the answer is right here. Thanks Kobra.... and what's ironic is that I am using the same template as KenshiroU. BTW, Your banners look great. I wish I were better with graphics.... I want to post my question here for the benefit of others, in case someone does a search. I was going to say..... How do I move the banner position on home page, or how do I move the location of my banners?

Okay I figured it out. I had to look for the banner box 5 wide banners and copy and cut the code from template_default footer and paste it into the YOUR template footer.

oh, I see. Thanks, I could use a banner position there too. Not a exactly a question for this post, but where did you get that 'selectable' banner in the Header Position 2? The big one near the top in which I can select one of 6 banners to display. Is that a plug-in and if so, where can I find it? I would like one like that, or one that automatically changes... and thanks for the info on the footer. :)

Which banner is that one mate? The reward points one, or the 3 underneath (not including the LightBox).
Sorry took so long to get back been working on another site

Thanks!! Actually, based on what you have just said, I guess it's the Lightbox. ha. would that be here http://www.zen-cart.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=170 ,,, or here, this 'updated' version http://www.zen-cart.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=584 .. now really getting off topic...

Sorry I made a mistake when I said LightBox I actually meant Slider. If you need any help let me know.

Thanks! Good luck with your website, you have a lot of products. Now that I understand how to use the banners, I am going to work on that next week and see what I can come up with. I guess this is the slider http://www.zen-cart.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=1366 .. I really have a lot to learn, but I believe that Zen Cart is the way to go...

Try Nivo Slider

Because we have the same template, perhaps you could answer something for me if you don't mind... I am using Zen v1.5 .. Documentation for Nivo Slider says it is for Zen V1.3.9 .. what version of Zen are you using? Nivo doesn't appear to replace any core files so I guess I could try it out anyway. Thanks for all of your help!!!

Just before you do that
http://www.zen-cart.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=1404 use this for your slider.

Thanks :smile:

Let me know how it goes and if you need any more help.

Okay.. may be a while, but I will post back here when I get it done.. cya!! and thanks
