Thanks for the responses.
I am having problems installing tradepulse, crystaltrader, tradeexpert, smart traffic trader... etc. In fact, anything with an install.php file, as the server configuration won't allow the scripts to run and the host is not being too helpful regarding helping me sort out the server settings.
The only script I have managed to install, is slothtrader, which doesn't have a banner 'visual' toplist option, but whose programmer did reply on their forum suggesting the same sort of thing as Babaganoosh, but by calling the banners
domain.com.jpg so that I could write it into the toplist template as %DOMAIN%.jpg. The problem is, is that each signup would have to be manually approved and a banner sourced and uploaded.
This would be fine if it was me that was going to be looking after it, but I am building the site for someone else who should 'hopefully' manage the majority of it herself... at least the traffic aspect!
Slothtrader is the only script up to now that has had the zipped files available as an alternative to install.php. Why do so many of the scripts insist on this, when judging from their own forums, it's not just me that has this problem? Why can they not provide the zipped files as well? Some of us can be trusted to FTP them ourselves!
This is becoming a bit of a ballache for me now. I only want to install a tradescript! I've been banging my head against a wall for over a week because of this. It's something that should take 15 mins tops.
