Hi! Is there any possibility to have flash banners (.swf) under the categories menu? Or maybe in som other place?
There is No problem at all to insert a picture there, but when trying to insert a flash banner.....forget it... I dont wanna use the simplebanner plugin, it made me almost threw my PC out!
You just see the border and no banner, why is that? Can the .tpl not read .swf?
PLease help me.... ive been trying this for a day now :l
Maybe to put it "beside" the actual shop?

One solution: open templates/page.tpl. Search <a href="?p="><img src="$config[dir_files]img/$config[logo_img]" alt="" /></a> and replace with your html code (to put the flash object), something like this: <object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://active.macromedia.com/flash4/cabs/swflash.cab#version=4,0,0,0" id="banner_menu" width="827" height="200"> <param name="movie" value="banner.swf"> <param name="quality" value="high"> <param name="bgcolor" value="#FFFFFF"><embed name="banner" src="banner.swf" quality="high" bgcolor="#FFFFFF" width="827" height="198" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/index.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash" ;> </object> Copy the swf animation in your shop directory.

ok, mad, your solution replaces the head logo of my shop, right?
I actually got it to work last night.
In footer.tpl i added these lines just before quickcart link. I used Dreamweaver 8. At first i forgot to put FULL url to my flash banners, so it didnt show them. After fixing that....Voila!!
