Quick Tips[edit]

  • Banners are placed on specific pages by adding Modules of type 'Banners' using the Module Manager.
  • If you have a series of Banners that you would like to display on one or more pages in random order:
    1. Create the Banners you wish to include, making sure they have the same Client and Category.
    2. Create a Banner Module for this Client and Category, and in the Menu Assignment pick the Menu Selections for the module to display on.
    3. In the Banner Module, set the 'Randomise' value to 'Sticky, Randomise'.
With these settings, the different Banners for that Client and Category will display on the selected pages in random order.
