I was thinking about getting rid of the banner from my theme and just putting it in a block so I could move it around whenever i wanted. However when i tried to put the code

{$xoops_banner}

the banner didn't show up. I tried every format, php, etc. I also tried the example in the blocks section for your site url but it doesn't work. How do you get this to work in a block?

Here is a question, and I remembered to search if anyone else tried it but didin't find it, can I use XOOPS adds outside of xoops?

I am hosting a site for someone that is very popular among the community my site is in and so I am wanting to add a footer via the server admin interface, anyway what code do I need to get my XOOPS adds and display them? Can I simply import the common.php?

for put your link at footer must do it at admin --> preferences --> meta tags and footer

I mean can i show "{$xoops_banner}" outside of xoops. XOOPS is still in control of it and such, I just want to beable to display it in a non-xoops part of my site.

ok, well I guess I'll just have to write some code to act like XOOPS and grab the adds. Does not sound to hard.

I figured I could jsut import the showbanner or the getbanner functions and use them to dispaly the banner. However I can't, even though i don't get any errors, I think I am missing a step somewhere.

I cannot figure out how XOOPS globabl variables get defined in a module, isn't from common.php or? I think if I knew that.. oh well I will keep looking around.
