There's really nothing to it. You just give an OpenXZoneID field to any object that you want to have an ad, and then give that object a custom method like:

function Ad()
{
// use OpenX API to get ad wtih $this->OpenXZoneID
}

And then on your template, $Ad.

Then of course, you use the CMS to populate the object with its corresponding OpenX ZoneID, which is really easy to find in OpenX.

I think you guys really need to refer your questions to the OpenX forums. Silverstripe's only role in this task is to return the OpenX ZoneID of the ad that is associated with the specific page or dataobject. Once you have that, you should be able to throw it at OpenX and get what you need.
