I assumed you meant attaching the file so that their tech can download.
Just click reply, on your left hand side you will see "Browse or attach file" button use it to locate your file. And click reply, that is all.

Since you are not using the default blogger template, you will have to edit some of the files in your theme. you can get details ion the SMF website

Re: How Do I locate My Smf Boardindex.template.php File Via Ftp by mrperfect(m): 2:10pm On Nov 26, 2009

Overview of editing the templates:
You have to edit the following files one by one:
Note: if you found it too technical or your too buzz I will do it for you for just N5,000 for my beer.
So download these files as you downloaded the above file, create a two folders one for back up (in case you fok up) and one to edit, after the edit. Upload all of them in your hosting account to overwrite the existing ones there. That is all all your advert will start shown.
So let start:

Another alternative is to delete the template files of the babylon theme.
The default one will be used automatically.
Just leave the stylesheet and index,php

I have done it with many themes before.

Re: How Do I locate My Smf Boardindex.template.php File Via Ftp by Nobody: 1:15pm On Nov 30, 2009

Mr.Perfect thank you very much, but pls look at my reply above.

Re: How Do I locate My Smf Boardindex.template.php File Via Ftp by mrperfect(m): 1:35pm On Nov 30, 2009

just log into your account using ftp as before, click on public_html, click on whaterver name you use as your forum name( if it in subdirectory)
Click theme, when it opens click babylon, them you will see a list of files, then right click each and a very one of these files below and download them one by one as I outlined what you should edit on them:
Index.template.php
BoardIndex.template.php
MessageIndex.template.php
Display.template.php
and click download, That is all.
Create two folders on your computer and save unedited ones on one folder and save edited ones on the other folder. The formal will serve as back up in case you don’t get it right.
Upload the edited ones to the folder your downloaded them from which will overwrite the existing ones on your server that is all. And preview the forum you will start seeing your advert displaying

Re: How Do I locate My Smf Boardindex.template.php File Via Ftp by mrperfect(m): 2:57pm On Nov 30, 2009

What mean is for example,
Find:
Code:

<body>'; ( that find this code on the file you downloaded)

Replace with:
Code sad

replace this with to above code)

And this is how to do it template by template
eg /Themes/{your_theme}/BoardIndex.template.php is BoardIndex.template.php you first downloaded.
I hope is clear now?

Re: How Do I locate My Smf Boardindex.template.php File Via Ftp by Nobody: 3:14pm On Nov 30, 2009

Very, Very clear now. Thanks. Please can I ask another question? but not on adverts, perhaps i just open a new topic. YOU REALLY WORTH YOUR NAME

I don't know who you are referring with that last post, it seems that some post are deleted here.
I saw when you posted about theme crashed yesterday but was very buzz to attend to that.
Just as i told you, been a newbie I don't expect you not to make mistake with the above codes, that is why i advised you to have two folders one for edit and the other for the back up in case if you make mistake you can simply delete the formal and start again with the latter and have another back in case you still don't get it.
It appears you have many questions is better you visit smf forum, to ask them there as they have paid specialist to attend to you there.
Let me seize this opportunity to let you know this: before you do any thing on your forum eg codes/mod always back your data base, through phpmyadmin in through your cpanel in case technical challenges you can simple have your forum back as it is before any incident.

Add every other code on the index template.php and leave that one out.
i did that and the ads are working fine.

indextemplate.php file is the most important.
do not play with it.
