BannerX

Hello,
Revolution 2.2.2-pl
Is anyone using BannerX 0.2.0-beta to display banner adds?

I have it working OK except that I am having a problem with the the required URL associated with the banner, and can find no documentation.

Regardless of what URL I attach to the banner I get:

The requested URL /bannerclick/1 was not found on this server.

Any solution please?

Thanks

I am having exactly the same problem. Has this been resolved?
Thanks

Hi Joeblow,
I have not found any resolution and as you can see no replies to the thread :-(

Bummer! Thanks for letting me know bobd72.

Now I have found a solultion - your post made me revisit There is now a fork of BannerX - now called BannerY. It is in Extras and the URL's work

Yes I know, I have BannerY installed but the URLs are still not working for me. Only if I modify the template like shown below the links are built correctly but then the banner clicks are not counted.

The only thing I have modified is the Chunk byAdd to make the link open in another window and commented out the last lines:

<p><a href="bannerclick/[[+adposition]]" target="_blank"><img src="[[+image]]" alt="[[+name]]" title="[[+description]]"/></a></p>
<!--<p>Banner with extra params (available as placeholders in banner URL):

<a href="bannerclick/[[+adposition]]?id=[[*id]]&something=123"><img src="[[+image]]" alt="[[+name]]" /></a></p>
-->

Ok, I got it. You have to turn friendly URLs on, didn't know that. Works fine now.
