How do I configure the banner ad section in the news pro theme, I'm referring to the one that's just to the right of the logo?
Add the HTML for the banner to the header right widget area in a text widget.
Thanks, do you have a preferred script for a rotating banner ad setup?
Also, I tried to add some php code to the html, but it didn't like that... is there a way to use php in the text widget?
The AdRotate plugin is a good one, and it's easy to use.
As for using PHP in a widget, you can do that after adding this to functions.php:
// Enable PHP in widgets add_filter('widget_text','execute_php',100); function execute_php($html){ if(strpos($html,"<"."?php")!==false){ ob_start(); eval("?".">".$html); $html=ob_get_contents(); ob_end_clean(); } return $html; }

I provide development and training services for designers • Find me on Twitter and Google+I assume that once I add the widget I'll need to add something like a text widget to the page and that will display everything correctly?
I followed the above instructions, they seem to be working ok, but I was wondering how I can suppress the page name?
Can you paste in the PHP you need to use?

I provide development and training services for designers • Find me on Twitter and Google+Its going to be a lot of code, I'm slowly building it out but basically I am trying to add a database call to display some data and plan on eventually formatting it to create links to other pages, with more data being called from a mysql database.
One of the items I'm trying to add up front is a jquery tabs display:
this is the first part of the call:
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title>jQuery UI Tabs - Default functionality</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="http://code.jquery.com/ui/1.10.3/themes/smoothness/jquery-ui.css">
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.9.1.js"></script>
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/ui/1.10.3/jquery-ui.js"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/resources/demos/style.css">
<script>
$(function() {
$( "#tabs" ).tabs();
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
and then the php follows that with a mysqli_connect call.Well so far I've created a page template and that seems to work a little better and when I added the get_header it displayed the header like I wanted too... so maybe that's the better way of going...
I got the header working with get_header(); but when I put in get_footer(); it displays in the wrong place, its showing up in one of the tabs, even though I have it in a div outside of the tab code.
got it!!
Was missing a table tag, of course I'm going to get rid of that eventually, but we're movin on up (playing the Jeffersons in the background 🙂 )
Woohoo! I've been following along, but haven't had much advice since I'm still not totally sure what you're doing. Crossing fingers that you get it worked out (and then come back to post a detailed tutorial for other people who may need to do something like this)! 😀
