PHP code in the header section.

How do I add some PHP code to the header section? I want to run a banner that rotates and I have some PHP code that accomplishes that. Do I just paste it in?

You don't add some php code to the header section. You can try using conditionals to do what you want. The easiest way would be to have a php file on your server that outputs the ad code, and then use something to include it inline in the ad areas.

Do you have an example. I am fine with calling a PHP page and inserting it inline in the header. How do I do that?

vBulletin.org would be the better place to do this. But a stupidly simple way to do it would be just use an iframe.

Just to be clear, you cannot put a php widget in the header. The ad areas only allow html/javascript

If you're going to be getting into selling ads, you might want to look into a proper advertisement platform

There is a way to call PHP via template hook. Methods in frontend controller can be called from templates via {vb:action} call.
