Hi Pedro,

I think you'll find the XSLT option is a default option across all web-parts, and in this instance does not actually affect the ad webpart. Ads HTML are generated based on templates supplied into the Marketing Sub-System. This can be administrated via the marketing manager, whereby you can add new adds.

If you wish to customise the ouput HTML you will need to do this via the marketing manager administration API, by writing a custom script to do so.

The actual webpart functionlity quite simply passes in some parameter to the CSF, which resturns HTML to be rendered.  You can find this file within the SDK in the following location:

CommerceSharePointExtensibilityKit\UI\Marketing\Marketing.csproj and you will find the logic within the AdsListPresenter.cs class

Let me know if you need to know anything else.

Thanks,
Lewis
