How to add Headliner ad/content above header

[Bob Herdlein]

I've seen this post in regards to adding a Headliner Ad below the header/logo area. https://developer.ning.com/tutorials/Headliner_Ad

And it works just fine.

My question is is it possible/how would I add in an image or leaderboard (if the ad package is added) above this same area? as in above the header/area where the logo lives. A matter of tweaking the code from the article above?

thank you

Hey Bob - I think I'm having the same problem you had. Would you look at my site at the header and banner ad and tell me if this was your deal? If so, can you help me solve this? I could not follow everything on this post.

morning, CP,

I got it working for me and what I ended up doing was tweaking the CSS in the "appearance > advanced" tab.

Not sure if this will work for you as I'm not sure how you put the banner in but for me:

#xn_bar { margin-bottom: 107px; }

/* This tweak makes nav bar work for firefox but need to add IE 7 fix to it */
#xg_navigation
{
margin-top: 10px;
}

/* target IE7 and below */
#xg_navigation {
*margin-top: 20px;
}

Either way this might get you started. Use Firebug a plugin helper app for Firefox which allows you to see the css of the page and figure out what code you need to tweak. That worked for me after some trial and error.

Best

Good afternoon Bob - thanks for the reply. I got the Header to move down but the banner ad also moved down. How do I make the two separate?

Just a note: I uploaded the header through Appearance>All Options. And I uploaded the banner ad through the Analyics. I dont know if this matters. Delete Comment

I'm not sure how you coded it...just try different things till it works for you. Again, use Firebug

Thanks for all the interesting posts.. especially parentingNH--looks great. So in the end, how did you elegantly place those banner ads 1) to the right of your banner and 2) above the banner? What javascript code and css mods did you have to incorporate in the end. Thanks so much!!! Jenny

Use the language editor and insert the google code before "Add to Favorites" this takes some tweaking, but you will see what I mean

Hi All.
this is an old topic, but maybe you can help still.....

I want to do the same thing that Bob did on his site currently (the ads above the header) - http://parentingnh.ning.com/.

This conversation is all over the place. Can someone run me through this, step by step, so I can get ads up there.
ALSO. Do you know if a flasher banner will work in its place? http://parentingnh.ning.com/ has a still image there. I would love to be able to throw up a 3 ad rotation if possible.

Any help is greatly appreciated! THANKS!

Greetings Bob,

I noticed that you finally were able to get this banner to work on your site. I am in a similar situation in that I have an advertiser that would like to advertise with a banner just under the Ning bar and seen on all pages of the network.

For some reason I am having the worst time trying to figure this all out. Would you be able to share the code you ended up using in the Custom Code box and in the Advances Appearance?

I would greatly appreciate any help you can offer.

Thanks,
Tiany
