Change The Look of my directory

[kdollar]

I want to add a banner and put a counter and maybe some ads. I just want to know what file I need to edit. I used the search button and tried to find this but couldn't (sorry if this is always asked).

there are several topics for editing templates. Here are two:

http://www.phplinkdirectory.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=182&highlight=header

here is copy of one post:

The templates are now stored in the /templates folder. The main directory template is main.tpl. From this template all the others are included, just to keep things a bit cleaner: header.tpl, top_bar.tpl, link.tpl, pagerank.tpl and footer.tpl. I think their names are self explanatory. Also inside the templates you'll find a few comments (enclosed in {* *}).

try searching for the follwoing words on this forum: template, header, footer, design

One other question, Is there an easy way when I post a link to not show my referral link where it lists it.


(url removed - broken link) and go to poker rooms to see what I mean.

For example:
