How to add ad banner to chat?

Step by step instructions.

It only takes two steps to insert ad banners into chat, they are:

Step 1): Upload ads

One ad or a series of rotating ad banners can be displayed in 123 flash chat, please upload them first to the same folder with 123flashchat.swf.

Step 2): Add it in Advertisement settings of Admin Panel

Admin panel offers you the simplest way to add ad banner. Click "the advertising setting" in the left, you will see the following picture:

Here you can define the advertisement and adapt it to fit your need in dimension, picture address, link URL, duration time and so on.

Input the name of advert picture and the URL which can be linked directly by clicking the banner at client and set the time of duration, then "save" to finish the settings.

Remark:

1) src value
src value is the filename of the ad files. Use relative URL if it's not in the present folder with 123flashchat.swf.
eg: src="ad/banner1.jpg"

2) href value
href value is ad link, so visitors can be directly linked to that URL when they click the ad_banner.
If you don't want any link, just leave it blank.

3) duration value
duration value is the duration of current ad.
For example, if you set it "10" ,then this banner will be shown there for 10 seconds before shifted to next banner.
If there's only one exclusive banner, you can leave the duration null.

Why my ad banner won't show?

Ad banner can only be JPG or SWF format, following formats are not allowed: gif, png, bmp, psd. etc. due to the macromedia regulation that only JPG or SWF can be externally inserted to flash SWFs.

For jpg format, it has to be non-progressive mode. If not, please use a software like acdsee to convert it. eg: open your jpg in acdsee, then File -> Save as, choose options in popup dialog and in the option of encoding, DON'T check Progressive, then save jpg. Done.

For gif banner, convert it to SWF first in this way: import it to macromedia flash and export it as SWF.
