[Tutorial :: Affiliates in Footer :: __Doc_]
In this tutorial I will show you how to make and add a global Affiliates block in the footer of your IPB 2.3.x board
To start off with let's make our affiliates block. This will consists of two tables. The first table is 2 rows, inside the first table in the bottom TD will be the second table.
This table will have 2 rows and 5 columns.. As seen in the following code. TD width will roughly be 20% each. Align center is optional.
For this example we will have the top row buttons and the bottom row text links, just for variety nothing special.
For a little individuality we will use the borderwrap class from IP.B CSS. This will wrap each TD in a 1px stroke ( depending on your borderwrap code )
Because of limitations in html please view this page for the CODE
 
Now that we have a table let's add some example buttons and TEXT. These buttons are standard 88x31

Now add your buttons/text in the proper TD that you would like. Or just follow along here.
With the buttons and text in place the code will look like this.
 
Now for the fun part. Adding the table to IPB's footer to display on every page.
 
Login to your IP.B and head over the the ACP. Once there navigate to LOOK AND FEEL > find your skin.
Click on the options button () and click EDIT TEMPLATE HTML.. Then, All global HTML > global_board_footer
FIND:
<if="$this->ipsclass->input['act']=='idx'"></div></if>

ADD ABOVE:
THIS CODE
 
Click, SAVE TEMPLATE BIT and refresh your board and you should have something similar to this depending on your buttons/text
 
obviously don't use my link buttons that I host. If you would like to affiliate with me you are welcome to visit my affiliates page.
Thanks!
