Did that, just ticked the first box
"Enable Sponsor(Enable/disable sponsorship [including Gogole Adsense] for this forum.)"
and then put the code in the box that says
"Google Adsense Code
Sign up for AdSense.
(If you enable Adsense, you can not use a sponsors URL or banner.)"
Can you post a screenshot of the settings? Which code are you attempting to use? The pop-up code?
Is there anyway i can just get the sponser banner to show only on my main forum page under usercp faq memberlist so on???
Not yet. That's something that's in the works though.
I've got problem with animation gif: can not see any animation.

Pls suggest
There's no reason an animated GIF wouldn't work. vB.Sponsors isn't sensitive to the image type. Is nothing displaying at all? Give me some more details.

You can't use that code as is. However, you can try doing this:

Enable Sponsor: YES
Use Sponsor Banner: YES
Sponsor Name: Whatever you want
Sponsor Banner: http://www.ausfish.com.au/adserver/adview.php?clientid=157&n=a7291408
Sponsor Large Banner: (leave blank)
Sponsor URL: http://www.ausfish.com.au/adserver/adclick.php?n=a7291408
Google AdSense Code: (leave blank)


At this time, there isn't a way to use "custom" ad code. That may appear in the future.

I'd like to see an option to enter a given email address for each individual sponsor that will email the sponsor daily/weekly/monthly hit statistics, if they choose to be kept up to date. BTW I am about to redownload and upload the files to see if it fixes my problem.

Cool idea. I'll add it to the list. Perhaps just have them register on the forums and use that email address?

Yeah that would work for me, I run an automotive forum so all my sponsors are registered users anyway to post deals and what not.

Put it in the Google Adsense section as you said to in your previous post.


Have now tried as you suggested below but still not working. Just shows the sponsors name.

I tried the code in the sponsor banner as well as the large banner but nothing.

Any ideas?

Something is wrong with the banner image you gave. http://www.ausfish.com.au/adserver/adview.php?clientid=157&n=a7291408 is a 1x1 transparent GIF. You won't see that on your forum since its so small and transparent.

Nice mod!

I like it, and I was successful in getting it to work the first time around!

The only question I have:

How do I get that jeepfreek banner to display at the far left? Right it is far right, and I would rather have it right UNDER the "Jeepfreek Adventure Magazine" topic title

Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you

I didn't do anything special. I just used the popup code you provided earlier and placed that in the Google AdSense section. Leave all the other fields blank.

I apologize if it seemed like I was ignoring your PMs. I'm working on buying a new house and haven't had much free time lately...

Alter your FORUMDISPLAY template with this should do the trick. Note the additional <DIV> tag (<div align="left">).

<!-- vBSponsors -->
<if condition="$foruminfo[sponsor_enabled] == 1 AND $vboptions[sponsor_global_enable_sponsorship] == 1">
<div align="left">
<if condition="!empty($foruminfo[sponsor_adsense])">

<else />

<if condition="$foruminfo[sponsor_banner_enabled] == 1 AND $vboptions[sponsor_global_enable_banners] == 1">

This is a per forum/category sponsorship. At the present time, you can't rotate banners (you can use animated GIFs though).

Just tried it again and not working. It appears that it has something to do with the google adsense. I put in my google adsense code and it isn't working either.

Is there a common reason/something I may not have setup right, causing the adsense to not work?

It appears to be all setup but most likely I have missed something.

It inserts the following into the HTML but nothing displays

<a href="vB.Sponsors/link.php?f=65" title="" target="_blank">
</a>


If I go directly to the URL http://................/vB.Sponsors/link.php?f=65 I just get a message displayed "Invalid Sponsor URL Specified"

You shouldn't see that HTML at all with Google AdSense in place. That means something is not right.

Check & double check all your templates.

If everything is ok there, check your vB.Sponsors settings (vBulletin Options -> vB.Sponsors Settings). See the screenshot.

If everything is ok there, check your forum settings (Forum Manager) for vB.Sponsors. See the screenshot.

And lastly, if none of the above works, uninstall vB.Sponsors and reinstall it.

The ability to add banners (google or other sites) to my forum/website and it can take more than 1 so if you have 3 it generates them randomly everytime you refresh etc.

And also holds stats so you see how many times the ad has been clicked etc?

I'm using text links instead of banners. On the main page it shows up fine. On the "Deer hunting" sub forum the link is there but the anchor text if blank. Any idea how to fix that?

Has anybody been told of the timescale for the 3.7 version ?

I am likely to loose sponsors soon if i dont get the adverts back up and running soon.

Is there another hack that we can use whilst this one is being upgraded ?

I've been using this through 3.6.9 and 3.6.10 without any trouble at all. It is a critical part of my board, and advertising revenue. Really looking forward to the 3.7 version, as this will be the one that green lights me for the upgrade.



This would be a great feature to add here.


Found it

In SHOWTHREAD


Find -
<if condition="$show['largereplybutton']">

and post this before it


<!-- vBSponsors -->
<center>
<if condition="$foruminfo[sponsor_enabled] == 1 AND $vboptions[sponsor_global_enable_sponsorship] == 1">
<if condition="!empty($foruminfo[sponsor_adsense])">
$foruminfo[sponsor_adsense]
<else />
$vboptions[sponsor_global_default_text] <a href="vB.Sponsors/link.php?f=$foruminfo[forumid]" title="$foruminfo[sponsor_name]" target="_blank"><br>
<if condition="$foruminfo[sponsor_banner_enabled] == 1 AND $vboptions[sponsor_global_enable_banners] == 1">

Unfortunately, I can't even INSTALL it to vB 3.7. :(

The following dependencies were not met:

1. This product is not compatible with version 3.7.0 of vBulletin. (Compatible starting with 3.6.0 / Incompatible with 3.6.9 and greater)

EDIT: Okay, edited the .xml file, and got it working. Question: how can I display a specific banner at the top of forummain?

I've not heard of any issues with 3.6.9 yet.

As far as 3.7 goes, the new version is in development.

The developer of this mod is working on it. I too am dependent on this for the upgrade, and will not make the move until this is ready, as paid sponsors expect to get what they paid for.

Personally, I am waiting until all of the mods I use are either ready, or I have altered them to be ready until the 3.7 jump.

This is the last one, and I am sure Deviation will get to it shortly.

I would really like the new version to come out with the ability to have the sponsors banners mixed in the with posts as well. That would make it much more valuable to the advertisers and I would pay for this feature. :up:

That's an awesome feature (ability to have the sponsors banners mixed in with posts) that would be great to have! I'm holding off on upgrading based, in part, to this hack being 'upgraded'.

Hopefully we hear something soon from the developer.

I would simply like the version for 3.7 Gold to be released. Additional "features" would be great, but a functional version for 3.7.1 is what is desperately needed right now.

Dear Sirs,

I am writing to you concerning your script for vBulletin - vBSponsors.
I really need a new version for VBulletin 3.7.0 or 3.7.1.
I am ready to pay 50$ for modifying the previous version, if you promise to send the script to my e-mail immediately after I do the money transfer.
Would it be possible to do so? Please answer.

Best regards,

Alexander Shadrin

Yep. There's not much to change to get it to install on 3.7.x. Just that value in the XML file. I have it installed my forums as well.

New version soon... I promise. :)

Is there a way to make this for each thread instead of each forum?

I made a change to my templates so that it shows for the forum as well as each thread in the forum. IF this is what you mean, see my previous post.

It has increased my ad revenue substantially as the ads are now being displayed many more times than before.

Is it possible to have thsi turned off for certain members.

I would like to have it not display if a member is a certain level.

Just need a bit of code, I assume, to insert so that if member level = "premium" then it will not display the ad. Don't need it as a full mode, just the code and I can hack it :)

Thanks

Its possible I'm sure. However, I haven't implemented it yet.

I hope to actually have some time to continue the development soon. That feature, among others, has been requested a few times.

Hi Justin,

I hope you are doing well.

Any update to your 4.0?

Also, in another thread where barne77 has worked on your code I have been asking about placing the banners above the New Thread / Reply buttons in the individual threads.

I was able to do it with your 3.8 code like this example (http://www.inspectionnews.net/home_inspection/building-envelope-home-inspection-commercial-inspection/29732-foundation-crack.html)but I could not get barne77 code to do the same thing. This location(s) is SO important to the sponsors. I also have it above the "Submit" button on the post/reply page. Any help with that when you roll out your new version would be greatly appreciated.

I am also willing to pay to get this released and with the banners in the locations mentioned above. Contact me if this would make a difference and speed up the project.

Thank you very much for all your hard work.

Brian

Unfortunately the vb4 options are limited in terms of ad locations and don't provide the option of a smaller banner opposite a forum on the home page.

I'm surprised no one has done one of these for 4.x yet. It's something I very much would like.
