In this tutorial we will cover the basics of working with banners in osCommerce, which includes how to add, disable, and delete banners. Typically banners are used on a website for catching people's attention, because they are large wide images usually in the header or footer of a website. Banner images are useful for many different things from advertising to website branding, or even notifying people of something.
Using the banner manager in the admin panel of osCommerce makes it easy to make adjustments quickly without having to edit the code of the website. We will walk you through Adding a new banner, disabling an existing banner, and completely removing one.
