# New Downloadable Content Ad Tool Type

*Article Topics:* [*Ad Tools*](/getting-started/common-topics/ad-tools.md)

NATS provides the ability to duplicate Ad Tool types, including [Downloadable Content ](/nats-admin/ad-tools/further-reading/default-ad-tool-categories/content.md)Ad Tools. This duplicate Ad Tool will have a different name and will appear separately from the Downloadable Content ad tool type in the Affiliate Ad tools list.

Note: You can further customize your duplicated Downloadable Content ad tool, but you should not attempt to customize your new ad tool type until you have completed the following instructions.

## Duplicating Your Ad Tool

To duplicate your [Downloadable Content](/nats-admin/ad-tools/further-reading/default-ad-tool-categories/content.md) Ad tool type, go to the [Ad Tools Admin](/nats-admin/ad-tools.md). Scroll down to the Downloadable Ad Tools Types section, find the Content ad tool type, and click the Duplicate Ad Tools Type icon. Enter a shortname to identify your new ad tool type.

On the next page, edit your new Ad Tool, change its Description, and click Save Changes. Once you have duplicated your Ad Tool type, click the View Ad Tools tab and upload an initial downloadable content Ad Tool .

## Creating Templates For Your Ad Tool

In order to use your new Downloadable Content ad tool type, you will need to create new templates in the [Skins & Templates Admin](/nats-admin/skins-and-templates.md).

To do this, go to the [Skins & Templates Admin](/nats-admin/skins-and-templates.md), click the "Advance Skins" tab, and view the template for your *default* skin. The templates are listed alphabetically; find the following two templates:

* *function\_display\_adtools\_content\_min*
* *function\_display\_adtools\_content\_max*

Edit each of these templates in a new browser tab or window. Without closing your new tabs/windows, go back to the template listing and scroll to the top of the screen. In the "Create Template" section, enter the following template name:

* *function\_display\_adtools\_shortname\_min*

Choose "function\_" from the first drop-down menu and fill in the rest of the name in the empty box next to it. Replace *shortname* with the shortname you chose earlier. In the Header drop-down, choose *No Header;* in the Footer drop-down, choose *No Footer.* Next, enter a description and click Create. Go back to the *function\_display\_adtools\_content\_min* page you opened in a new window or tab earlier and copy the entire Template Body. Finally, paste the copied code in to the Template Body of your newly created template.

Find and remove the following code:

{% code overflow="wrap" %}

```
<div class="slra slra_adtools_content_min2"><a 
  href="fetch_zip.php?name={$tool.content_zip}&filename={$adid}_content_zip.zip&download=1">Download</a></div>
<div class="slra
  slra_adtools_content_min3">{$adtool_types[$type_details.short].fields.type.mc_options[$tool.type]}</div>
```

{% endcode %}

Replace it with the following code:

{% code overflow="wrap" %}

```
<div class="slra slra_adtools_content_min2"><a
  href="fetch_zip.php?name={$tool.content_zip}&filename={$adid}_ign_content_zip.zip&download=1">Download</a></div>
<div class="slra
  slra_adtools_content_min3">{$adtool_types[$type_details.short].fields.ign_type.mc_options[$tool.type]}</div>
```

{% endcode %}

\
Click Save Template to save the template and return to the template listing. In the create template box, enter the following template name:

* function\_display\_adtools\_shortname\_max

Choose "function\_" from the first drop-down menu and fill in the rest of the name in the empty box next to it. Replace *shortname* with the shortname you chose earlier. In the Header drop-down, choose *No Header;* in the Footer drop-down, choose *No Footer.* Next, enter a description and click Create. Go back to the *function\_display\_adtools\_content\_max* page you opened in a new window or tab earlier and copy the entire Template Body. Finally, paste the copied code in to the Template Body of your newly created template.

Find and remove the following code:

{% code overflow="wrap" %}

```
<div style="padding-top: 8px; width: 235px; float: left; font-weight:
  bold; text-align: center; padding-right: 4px;"><a
  href="fetch_zip.php?name={$tool.content_zip}&filename={$adid}_content_zip.zip&download=1">Click
  HERE to Download Content</a></div>
```

{% endcode %}

Replace it with the following code:

{% code overflow="wrap" %}

```
<div style="padding-top: 8px; width: 235px; float: left; font-weight:
  bold; text-align: center; padding-right: 4px;"><a
  href="fetch_zip.php?name={$tool.content_zip}&filename={$adid}_ign_content_zip.zip&download=1">Click
  HERE to Download Content</a></div>
```

{% endcode %}

Find and remove the following code:

{% code overflow="wrap" %}

```
<div style="padding-top: 8px; width: 60px; float: left; text-align:
  left;">{$adtool_types[$type_details.short].fields.type.mc_options[$tool.type]}</div>
```

{% endcode %}

Replace it with the following code:

{% code overflow="wrap" %}

```
<div style="padding-top: 8px; width: 60px; float: left; text-align:
  left;">{$adtool_types[$type_details.short].fields.ign_type.mc_options[$tool.type]}</div>
```

{% endcode %}

Click Save Template when you are finished making changes.
