Order

Arrange the order of the banners on the page. Note, you can add up to three banners above the header and only one below the header. The banners are assigned to the page based on their order, if you have two banners assigned below the header then only one will show at any one time. The Banner with the lowest number will show first. If a user dismisses a banner and another banner is set but not shown due to its order limit, it may then be presented to the user.
