Ok, i will be posting a few links for constructive purposes later on....

I am wondering how to get a "link cloud" at the bottom of my forum. Pretty much the Bubble Ads here on FP but on the index on the bottom right above the stats.
Some examples of what i am trying to achieve:
http://promotion-source.com/ At the bottom there is a link jumble...
http://forumadvertising.org/ At the bottom is another link cloud.

Ok i would like an explanation like you were righting a "Link Cloud in phpBB3 For Dummies" book.

I want to know what to edit, where to edit it. What file, where i can find the file. ETC ETC ETC.

I am sick of messing up my forums so much help appreciated. I will +rep everyone that helps, and start giving out cash to people that help, i am not sure how much cash though.
 
Re: Link Cloud in phpBB3

What forum software are you using and are you on a free forum host?
 
Re: Link Cloud in phpBB3

phpBB3 like i said in the topic title. And no i am not on a free host.

Where exactly does it go in there. I am like half retarded when it comes to this stuff. Give me a line to add it after and i can do that.
 
Re: Link Cloud in phpBB3

Post your index_body.html and I can show you exactly where to put it.

Re: Link Cloud in phpBB3

I missed the title and the second part of my post still stands as alot of free forum hosts don't allow you to edit templates.

Add the code before
Code: 
<!-- IF S_DISPLAY_ONLINE_LIST -->
It really depends where you want it to show though.
 
Re: Link Cloud in phpBB3

If i wanted it to display above the stats but below the forums and categories.
 
Re: Link Cloud in phpBB3

You beat me to it again Fowler

That should be above the stats but below the forums.
 
Re: Link Cloud in phpBB3

OK since this is pretty much solved. Why not post a new question???

OK, let's go!


I tried to get a package on my forum but the captcha image doesn't show up when someone goes to the registration page. Does anyone know how to fix that?
 
Re: Link Cloud in phpBB3

What CAPTCHA are you using? If you are using the GD CAPTCHA, your host might not have GD on the saerver so it won't show. Try using a different CAPTCHA.

You should just make a new topic that way other peole who have had the same problem as you might also be able to help you 🙂
 
see i actually have no idea.

Whichever one comes with phpBB3, and previous people have registered fine.

Does it change when you get a new theme.?
 
There are better captcha's available for phpBB3 that the default one
 
it's not working. I can't switch to that captcha in the drop down after i upload the files.
