We've traditionally sold sponsorship of our attendee lists, schedule-at-a-glance, and title sponsor of our trade show for our in-person conventions, so sponsors are asking for this as part of their sponsorship benefits in 2020. Would it be possible to add a Banner Ad or other graphic area at the top of the attendee, my agenda, and exhibitor pages? This is valuable real estate where sponsors would like to be recognized.

  Hi Tom,

  Good news -- you can do this now!  Although you can't add a banner ad in the traditional way to those pages, because they are list widgets, you can add a banner ad, or any other widget, to the header space of just that page.

  Here's how:

  1. In the Host Tools Dashboard, navigate to the page that you'd like to have the custom header and click into it so that you can see the list of widgets on that page.
  2. Select Settings>Layout Options in the right corner
  3. Select the word Header, inside the Desktop box
  4. On the Header page, select Settings> Create Custom Header

  Now this header page is separated from your global header settings, and you may add a banner ad or image widget underneath the existing navigation without affecting the other pages of your event!

  If you'd like to see me demonstrate these steps, take a look at https://vimeo.com/458743823/39b9eb17fb.
