Looks interesting.. now all I've got to do is set up some ads on my site ;)

[username12]

I like the idea. Anyone know if they'd be a pain about allowing something like this to be implemented?

[Stifler]

how hard would this be to convert to adsense?

[mathias]

Also can you make it where it advertises people to sign up to clicksor with your referal id?

[sensimilla]

its available for google adsense since looong time ;) thanks alot for this one

[question?]

This isn't allowed. The user has to have the site approved etc.

[mathias]

does it only do it for the thread starter and not everyone who replies to the thread?

[Stifler]

its available for google adsense since looong time ;) thanks alot for this one

hi

in your readme there is

8. go back to admin area, go to 'Plugin System' -> 'Download/Upload Plugins'
import cpnav_clicksorshare.xml

Should that not be: Upload to the includes/eml directory? ;)

[username12]

This isn't allowed. The user has to have the site approved etc.

This was my concern, too, though I assume it would be fairly easy for them to add the site. Of course, if there are 100 people showing up for the same site I'd wonder whether that would cause an issue.

Hi,

It's a great hackk..

But majority of users are using Google Adsense. So please extend the hack to adsense too..

All you need to do is make available two variables, $Adsense-ClientID & $Adsense-ChannelID, in templates..

Thank you.

One more Question: The 50% of time the posters ad will be shown. The remaining 50% time how'll the forums own ad'll be diaplayed?

[Hemanth]

The plugin is not working for an upload.

More over the hack is simply not working :(

[toolblast]

How about modifying this plugin to work for Google Adsense as well as AdBrite ads? Please? :D

[spoiey]

can you make it for yahoo publisher please :D

[sensimilla]

while importing I get Invalid file specified...

[Paul M]

This is not a plugin hack - it requires file edits.

Hopefully this is within clicksor tos I have submitted a ticket to ask them as i use clicksor they pay better for me for some reason :S
A great mod if Clicksor allow it.... will let you know the outcome.....

Here's a couple of fixes if the author doesn't mind...


Do not import the XML in your admin CP, it wont work. Instead, upload it in ./includes/xml/
There's a small bug in the postbit template. When you paste it look at line 9 and 10 in the README.txt(the line are):
Revenue Sharing Ads (
<a href="./showthread.php?p=144">?</a>):</td>

replace the p=144 by your own thread or replace those 2 lines by:
Revenue Sharing Ads :</td>
In clicksor_share.php, on line 56 there is a small code that gets annoying in your admincp (it echos "hi" everytime), find and remove:
echo "hi";


If I offended anyone please tell me and i'll remove this post

[sensimilla]

Is it possible to make it work under Opera ? ads gets multiplied.

[Jealousy10312]

Great! Hopefully this works for 3.6.
