Thanks for the new translation, I hate to be a pain but there will probably be a few more language strings on the way. I have had a :idea: moment :lol:

3.2.0_RC3 now available.

Each banner's link can be ignored, opened in the same or new tab

Update from previous version:
  • Download the latest release and unzip it.
  • Disable Random Banner in the ACP
  • Delete randombanner folder from the server
  • Upload the folder hifikabin to root/ext/
  • Enable Random Banner in the ACP

Do you mean that you do not want ANY banners showing in Mobile View? (not even the ones specifically for mobiles?)

Yes that's what I mean. Or certainly not on mobile.

As there is no option for this at present I will have to hack the code. Hopefully I'll have something for you later today

I have a little question, I would like to add a wooden frame around the banners in just 1 style. I tried to edit css code, but the frame does not show, or the banner is not centered anymore. Maybe you can point me in the right direction? See my site (https://www.solidjeuh.be/), the frame is made into the banner at the moment. It now shows on all styles. Would just like to keep that frame in the brown style.

Disable the extension and create a new directory in the styles directory of the extension and copy the contents of the prosilver directory into it, then name the new directory the same as the style where you would like the border to be displayed.

That will give you two different named directories with identical contents, then re enable the extension.

Then you can edit the files in the new directory to add the border. (remembering to purge the browsers or boards cache as needed)

:idea: :idea: :idea:
You can also add position of every banner, i mean
Banner URL:
Target URL:
Link Target:
Position: Left/Right/centre(dropdown)
i think users can add three(or more) banners next to each other (in the header of the board)

All of the above is certainly possible, but not something I am considering at present.

It sounds like you have updated it incorrectly. Some file names have changed in the latest version to make it compatible with more styles.


Disable Random Banner
Delete the Random Banner FILES from the server
Upload the current version to the server
Enable Random Banner
