vB Ad Management

[abound]

RedTyger,

You suggested that my settings could be wrong. I have described them below, but have not responded (though you have responded to other posts since). I have had this mod installed for weeks now, including the link to you in my footer, but the ads are not working for me. I do not want to uninstall, because I need the functionality, but I will have to uninstall it if I cannot get any help solving these technical problems. I realize you are busy, and I am not the only one requesting your help, but I think you are the only one who can help me right now.

This was after I posted this: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost.php?p=1774291&postcount=212

RedTyger does not seem inclined to help me... I have had his advert link on my site for a couple of months now, but cannot get his software to work. If anyone can help me diagnose this, I would appreciate it.

[pandoros]

How do I get ads in a specific forum ONLY. no where else?

[cmmguy]

Thanks for great mod.

Installed ok in my ya forum with vbseo too.

In my case, need put "$vbam_location[name]" to the header template for top header banner display.

To get the ads to show on the right side of the header on my forum I had to add two table cells next to the logo cell. The included locations did not put the ad on the right margin. This is in the header template.

This is what I added to get the ads to show on the right side. There is also a spot in the center by I am not using it. ad_location_1 & _2 will show up in the drop downs of the Ad Manager.

WARNING: I am a relative virgin at this but can reverse engineer stuff I see so use my change with caution.

Key:
Existing code shown for reference point.
Code I added


<tr>
<td align="$stylevar[center]"><a href="$vboptions[forumhome].php$session[sessionurl_q]"><img src="$stylevar[titleimage]" border="0" alt="$vboptions[bbtitle]" /></a></td>
<td align="$stylevar[right]" id="header_right_cell">
<if condition="$ad_location['ad_header_logo']">$ad_location[ad_header_logo]<else />
</if>
</td>

<!-- added by cmmguy -->
<td width="33%">
<p align="center">
$vbam_location[ad_location_1]

</td>
<td width="33%">
<p align="right">
$vbam_location[ad_location_2]

</td>
<!-- /added by cmmguy -->



Note: I do see the other code in there for the right side banner ad but it just kept pushing that ad to the bottom of the header and never to the right side like I though it should.

[cmmguy]

I cant get the banner ads to rotate on the scheduled interval. I have AJAX working properly on my site(everything else AJAX works).

Does anyone have any luck with that? If so, could you share your settings or have any idea why mine is not working.

I have tried both embedded multiple ads separated by the "|" (but I actually saw that as for random ad showing more than for rotation) and I have tried an ad link to a my Openx account

Thanks

[KevinGupta]

Sorry... but can someone tell me how I can put a banner in? And how do I restrict/show the advertisement to a certain usergroup ...?

Please tell me if I have image link .. How I can put it in.. or if I have uploaded it on the server then how can I put it in..?

Please give me an example code with description .. so its easier to understand and then follow in future..
THanks...!

Here is what I have on my site that works in the HEADER

<a href="http://sharetrails.org"><img src="PATH IMAGE1" width="468" height="60" alt="Join The BRC, Fight the Good Fight" border="2" align="" /></a>
|
<a href="http://www.amadirectlink.com/"><img src="PATH IMAGE 2" width="468" height="60" alt="Join The AMA, Preserve your right to ride" border="2" align="" /></a>
|
<a href="http://www.melissaparis.com/"><img src="PATH IMAGE 3" width="468" height="60" alt="Malissa Paris, Professional Road Racer, help support and visit this Racer" border="2" align="" /></a>

the path to the images is where ever you are storing images aka
(/images/ads/image1.jpg)
or
"http://domain.com/myimages/imige1.jpg"

It is fairly straight forward

[KevinGupta]

Thanks a lot for this. It really did help!

But only one more thing.. could you please tell me how can I restrict it to certain groups? I mean If I just want to show it to a certain usergroup .. how can I do that?

[abound]

Has anyone had the problem where they installed the software, set their settings, and had no ads show up anywhere? What was the culprit?

In Global settings, you have two choices

Enable advertisements for usergroups:
&
Do NOT enable advertisements for usergroups:

You also have a choice to disable per script, allowing certain pages not to display adverts
Do NOT display advertisements for scripts and software:

There are also conditionals you can use for each add if the global is to restrictive. See Manual under conditionals (http://redtyger.co.uk/manual.php?product=vB+Ad+Management&version=5.02)

Anyone has any experience in display the ads as a block on the front page with VBadvanced?
i read that this hack work with vbadvanced but didn't find much info on it.
Thanks

Could it be that you had adblock on your browser?

I have one on my firefox, and it doesn't show any of the ads, but the product is working fine.

I thought adblockers only worked on popups and popunders. I'm trying to get ads to show up in my forum's margins. I also tried the feature that subsitutes strings with links in signatures, and that didn't work either. There seems to be something just completely blocking this from working in any way.

usually a 'td ..../td' can help or do the css style if preferred incline.

[hamster31]

I have already installed this new version but i cannot see in the index page, do i need to update anything on styles?

[Daniel Lindberg]

Is that forum add-on needed if you want ads inside of threads? Just upgraded my forum and this mod and the old version had that feature built-in so I'm a little confused.

[Quantnet]

Anyone has any experience in display the ads as a block on the front page with VBadvanced?
i read that this hack work with vbadvanced but didn't find much info on it.
Thanks

Since I found no answer, I went ahead and get this to work myself. Here is the step

I created a template module on VBadvanced called adv_portal_sponsor which contains

<tr><td bgcolor="#f7f7f7" align="center">
$vbam_adcode_custom
</td></tr>


Next, go to VB Ad Management ACP, at the bottom click on Custom
Enter the code for your banner, links, etc...preview and make sure it looks good.

Select yes for Enable custom 1 advertisements?
Set refresh
Set timespan
In Custom 1 target template, select adv_portal_sponsor
Enter $vbam_adcode_custom in the box of custom 1 inclusion.

Save.


A few problem.
The refersh does not seem to work. If i reload the page, then I can see different banners but the banners do not rotate by themselves.

[Quantnet]

It looks like ajax refresh does not work on custom adblock. It works fine in other predefined blocks.
Maybe it has something to do with my custom adblock is inside VB Advanced?

hi brother/sister,

maybe

1) the relative image path issue,
try remove the first '/' in the above path ---------> "images/misc/test.gif"

or

2) try using the absolute path like <img src="http://www.your_forum_domain.com/images/misc/test.gif"

to test the image access/display permission of your web hosting.
(replace with your forum domain for your_forum_domain.com)

Need make sure that the image gif file is in that directory path.

Hope a little help.

I created three ads, uploaded them, then put in the html in the HEADER section of the ad mgmt. and put the $vbam_location[name] in the ad_location_header of the styles & templates. I set the AJAX refresh and put 10 seconds, etc.

So here's the problem:

They will show up, but they don't auto rotate. I have to refresh the page to see a different one.

Anybody think they can help me?

Actually Many people have the same issue, I included. It seems the Author has no interest in adding his comments. Personally if I wanted a banner rotater I would have installed that instead. :erm: :down:

I just noticed, this product is not supported by the developer :down:

Thanks for the response. It still isn't working for some reason. Maybe I just need to find something simpler. I just want to ba able to have a rotating banner at the top of each page. If you know of an easy-to-use tool I would appreciate the suggestion.

I also thought that the ads didnt rotate as described. But after a week and a half of using it, the ads started to rotate. I did not change anything and was thinking that the timer that triggers the rotation didnt activate till later. Give it a week and see if the rotation doesnt start working.

[dancue]

Is there any way to add the option to exclude a style from having ads?

Or better yet, can anyone explain to me how to add an If/else code to the footer for an ad. (if this styleid=no ad, else=ad.)

Does anyone have a screen shot or a reference with each defined location within the forum? Rather than trial and error, it would be helpful to have a reference on exactly where "navbar_buttons_left" as well all others.

how do I get rid of this? I now can't access my site at all?!?

Edit -
This is ++++ing terrible, I've had to bring my whole site down because of it. Its clogged up the Mysql server, I'm getting too many connection errors as its just hanging, it started the very second I installed the product. I've deactivated it by disabling hooks but I can't get into my site at all its just db errors everywhere.

This should not be listed on this site, it is so destructive. I'm really pissed off, I only upgraded to vb yesterday, Ive made a complete fool of myself to my members all because of this mod. It's only been an hour and I already have 4k emails of errors.

Thank you for this mod.
Question: how can i put adsense into "Postbit adcode" section. I have tried, but it's not recognising it.

[jesus likes pie]

this is nice but it would be useful if you could set priorities for different ads.

for example, under navbar lets say I have 3 banners but I want one to be shown more often (increase the chance of it being shown).

I can get around this by just putting the same ad multiple times but it would be nice to do it a more traditional way :)

thanks though!

I got it. I've enabled HTML in adsharing.

i was going insane as to why it wasn't working, then I rememberd I had adblock plus on my firefox, lol.

You should think about renaming all references to "advertising" or "ads" in the HTML output as that's how ABP works. Just rename div class="advertisement" to like div class="redfyre" or something.

I want to show a header ad ONLY to non-registered/not logged in users.

If I Enable Usergroup 1, and only usergroup 1 in vB Ad Management, then the forum post ads don't show up even though they're housed in the the Forum Ad Manager > Posts section. When I only enable non-registered, they still see forum and thread ads though ...

Question: How can I Enable only one ad type (header) for one usergroup without the rest of the ads being affected?

Here's a quick word-diagram to show what I'm looking for.

non-registered/non-logged-in : See all ads
Registered normal user: See all ads except for the header
Registered Sponsor: Don't see any ads except for Private Message and email.

Work-around solution for this issue
I'm going to use the Notices feature to show the the header image that I spoke of and then turn on the ads as they appeared before and then cut down the number of ads in general so they balance better and will help me earn the eCPMs that I am looking for.

I sure would have liked to use this mod.

I installed and things seemed to be working - until I tried to post, reply, or quick reply.

When I moved my mouse pointer to the empty text box to type a message, the cursor would not appear and I could not type anything. The only way I could get it to work was to RIGHT-click, select all, and then left click so the cursor would show up so I could type.

What's strange is until and if I can get the cursor to show up in the text box, I could see the pointing hand flashing as if there was what I would call 'hotlink overrun'.

Anyone have any ideas how to check and/or fix this?

How about a suggestion for another advertising mod that works well and will allow me to:

Rotate banners all over site, except certain forums where I want to place fixed banners in those certain forums.

[BobbyT]

I sure would have liked to use this mod.

I installed and things seemed to be working - until I tried to post, reply, or quick reply.

When I moved my mouse pointer to the empty text box to type a message, the cursor would not appear and I could not type anything. The only way I could get it to work was to RIGHT-click, select all, and then left click so the cursor would show up so I could type.

I went to check if I had the same problem as soon as I read your comment over email. It returned negative. What you experienced seem to only be for yourself, I didn't get that error. I posted, replied, quick-replied well - without problems.

If this doesn't work for you, try the one released by Giovianne (sorry if I got that wrong, cant really remember). That might work for you, and is as good. That didn't work for me, so i'm using this.

I have just upgraded to 5.02 from version 3.16.

I have managed to get things working mostly the way we want. However, we're having one issue with the new version.

We can't figure out how to get the advertisement working on forumhome as we had it on the older version.

Basically we want to show a 468x15 google text ad below the second category of subforums on the homepage. Ideally the ad should appear below the first subforum in the second category - as it did previously.

Any idea how we should set this up?

I have been experimenting for hours and nothing seems to work on forumhome properly.

Hey, it doesn't show up on my forumhome too. But i've learned to accept that.

[ahensold]

My admin would like to be able to place specific "ads" on a per forum/thread basis to direct users around to different areas of their site.

I know that this can be done using conditions that show based on forum id or thread id.

But should this be done by creating multiple custom blocks or by creating one block that holds many different <if> conditionals (one per ad). (There will probably be a lot of these)

Thanks for your advice in advance.

[Zilvia]

Greatest Advertisement solution I have seen yet! Excellent work RedTyger!

One request I would like to put in is to have the ability to set the included/excluded usergroups for each ad location, instead of a global setting.

I know that's a good bit of work, but I for one really need that feature as we offer many levels of ads that change depending on your status. For instance, Guests have a Navbar ad, members do not... etc.

Id love to see this in all the Mods, vB, Forums, and Blog. I will send a healthy donation if you confirm this addition.

[stylez84]

I have the vB Ad Management setup on my site to display advertisements. It is working everywhere on my site except for in the arcade.

If I view the page source I can see that the ad management add-on is trying to put in the code but it's just shooting blanks...

<div class="advertisement" align="center">

<div id="navbar_adcode" class="adcode">

</div>
</div>


It is configured to show advertisements right under the navbar, and like I said it works everywhere else on the site, just not on the arcade pages. Seems like maybe there's a global variable missing or something.

I was able to edit the skin_arcade.php to manually insert the advertising code, but I wasn't able to figure out how to get it to not show ads for certain groups, so I'd prefer to get the vB Ad Management ads to appear in the arcade.

I'm also using vBAdvanced and my forum is under the /forum/ directory. You can see the website at http://www.brickjunkies.com.

Thanks for any help!

For the time being I'm manually inserting ads on the game page until I figure this out.
(I also posted this in the ibproarcade forum)

[go2realitytv]

Wondering if you can help me with this. I installed this and it works great when I view it being logged in as the admin. However if I guess or regular registered user goes to where the ads are within posts they do not show up. Any idea why?

I am getting the following error when I try to upload a file to the DOWNLOADS area. And have been told it is a Ad Management conflict error.

I am running Ad Management 5.02, Downloads II 5.1.0 on Vbulletin Version 3.8.1

I have contacted my webhost and they have told me that it is a scripting error with the mod. I contacted the developer of Downloads II and it is not that mod causing the conflict.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

[crazlunatic]

howcome none of the ads are showing up for me. Do I have to make template modifications? I don't see any instructions for that in the documentation

[Ronseal]

I've install this Mod and no problems so far.

Currently I run Adsense boxes (234 x 60 pixels) located in the Forum Description area? How can I use this mod to create unique Ad boxes for each forum, containing up to Six Advertisers per location. These boxes obviously need to rotate each of the Advertisers so they each get an equal amount of visibility.

Many thanks

That means the Photopost is conflicting with this mod. If you are running Google Adsense you are breaking the TOS by using auto refresh so turn it off.

What dimensions can I use for a sidebar ad?

I'm going to use an affliate for my ads? So I need to get the credits for clicks and impressions.

Bonus question:

I can't use this mod for local advertising because there's no reports associated with it? Correct?

Thanks!! :)

[njoy]

while I see this mod is unsupported maybe someone could help me. I want to show ads in footer but for example forum id 2 I want one ad company and forum id 3 I want to show another ad company....

I get it to work somewhat but it only ever shows one ad company...tried using the if else conditions.

I have vbseo installed is this creating an issue? as it seems as if it is not seeing forum ids

[Bob_R]

How come I'm getting a horizontal scroll?

Secondly, if this isn't going to be supported is there another ad management software available and where is it? I did a search.

Thanks! :)

In the manual it says:The columns are specifically designed to fit to the default vBulletin theme, so custom themes or edited templates may have problems using columns. They are added by searching for a section of template and adding themselves, so you may want to change what they search for. In global.start.php, you'll find the following separate code a few lines below their //Label: So where is global.start.php?? I can't find it anywhere in any directories at all.

Use the "Custom Blocks" then you can place the ads in any of the vbulletin ad locations,you will see them in the drop down menu. Using the "below navbar" will give you adverts in vBAdvanced.

dunno if im doing something wrong or dont understand this thing....

i just installed this, put the ad in the header, enabled the header ad, and nothing is showing. am i suppose to do something special? put a $header_ad or something in a template or is this auto insert?

i tried it in the header, didnt work. i tried it with PM's and nothing as well.

I'm having the exact same problem. I can't get any of the ads to show up at all :(

[kimmer]

Still can't get the navbar ads to work right. I want them to automatically rotate to the next vendors ad, but the auto refresh won't work with the new update. Even the 5.01 didn't work correctly, it made the whole page flicker when switching to the next ad. Now with the latest one, they don't rotate at all unless you manually refresh the screen.

[WonderStudios]

Thank You
Great Mod

[Bilderback]

Is there any way to add the option to exclude a style from having ads?

Or better yet, can anyone explain to me how to add an If/else code to the footer for an ad. (if this styleid=no ad, else=ad.)

You can create your own plugin at global_start to turn off vbam entirely.

/*** Change to your style id ***/
if ($styleid==XXX){
/*** End Change to your style id ***/
// turn off vbadmanagement
$vbulletin->options['vbam']['ads'] = false;
}

I searched the threads and couldn't find an answer. I updated my header banner (only a single banner) but it still tries to show the old banner on the forums.

[MrD3SAi]

I went through the manual and this forum thread and wasn't able to setup ad sharing for users. I have a custom field (Field5) that I created for AdSense ID that the users can input their own. I added a default pub ID in the Ad Sharing section. Then I created a custom AD that is in the ad_showthread_firstpost_start and replaced the google_ad_client with my default pub ID with #field5# (with quotes around it) and it ends up making all showthread pages white. If I change the custom AD pub ID from #field5# back to my default pub ID it works.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

[carolc]

is it possible to show the ads when a user is not logged in?....for example the forum home page...

I wanted to know the answer to this too. Since I see it's been posted several times in this thread, I will share the answer I just found. Go to the vB Ad Management Global Settings page and update the "Enable advertisements for usergroups" field. It was only activated for usergroup 6 by default (admins), so once I added more (e.g. 6|7|2|5|1|3), the ads showed up for everyone. Seems so simple, yet apparently threw a lot of us off. I hope this info helps someone else.

im new to all this, so any help would be great thanks ;)

anybody can test on Vb 4.0 ?
Best regards

[dbigras]

Hi there,

I have an issue with VB Advanced.

When I enable left or right column, it works fine when I have a fixed width, but if I put my forum in 100% width, then it gives me major problems, as the 100% does not include the ad columns.

Therefore, my ads don't show up when uses have smaller resolution, because the ad column is pushed outside the viewing portion.

But if I create custom ad codes with your product and I create ad modules in VB Advanced, it works great. Everything stays in the window.

So, I wonder what to do. Can I disable the right/left ad columns in VB Advanced and only have them shown everywhere else?

Thanks for your help.

[jesus likes pie]

anybody can test on Vb 4.0 ?

does not work on vB4.

[mykkal]

guys, he never finished the mod. i recommend you go with a different product.

it doesn't work with 3.8 or 4.0 unless you debug it yourself.

[elrafei]

Great mod

[Bansheebob]

uninstalled, major bugs, buttons wouldnt work when trying to save changes after banner changes.

[Wabuf]

Ok I can get ads to show up but any way to fix the footer link?

http://www.hostingtropolis.com

I'm using 3.8.4 and the footer link would be nice if it would just move down a line (I've tried <br /> didn't work)

EDIT: Seems I had to remove my own copyright text which isn't right and insert it manually. I'm gonna dig for his phrase and fix it myself I guess.

Alright here's a fix:

Go to Plugin & Products System -> Plugin Manager -> Edit vB_Ad_management_global_ads (global_start for hook)

Find:
$vbulletin->options['copyrighttext'] .= 'Ad Management plugin by <a href="http://redtyger.co.uk/" target="_blank">RedTyger</a>';

Replace with this:

$vbulletin->options['copyrighttext'] .= '<br />Ad Management plugin by <a href="http://redtyger.co.uk/" target="_blank">RedTyger</a>';

Volia! Much better looking IMO :)

Also for those who can't get it to work on 3.8, that's because you have to put the same thing within each ad spot like for instance...

I have this inserted in my header template:
$ad_location[ad_header_logo]

So I put this into the ad management settings for header (the box for header inclusion).

Volia it turns on!

Hope this helps.

[thehansen]

hi, i already install vB Ad Management in my vbulletin v3.8.2 and i have written the script
<img src="1.jpg" /> in Header adcode form. but why there is no image appear in main forum(index.php)?
however if i wrote in text format, the text will appear different if i try with image.

what should i do and which part should i check?

[morrow]

None of the adds show up? please helpMake sure you set your banner dimensions properly. If you don't, your ads will not display.

[matthewhotdude]

How do you mean?

[morrow]

If the dimensions of your banner of 500*80 for example... Make sure that when you create your ad, you specify the exact dimensions.

I'm running openads 2.0. So if I go into "Inventory" then "Banner Properties", there is a location to set your banner "Width" and "Height". Make sure you set that to the dimensions of your banner. If you don't, your banners will no show up.

By the way for those people who complain about this not working... It works just fine on my forum. Yes, it's buggy but you can take a look at how nice it works... http://www.njflyfishing.com.

[matthewhotdude]

where in this mod does it say the size the ads need to be?

[morrow]

where in this mod does it say the size the ads need to be?

The ads can be however you like them to be. The mod does not discriminiate, therefore it does not say what size the ads "need to be".

Does this add-on keep track of clicks/impressions?

Does this add-on keep track of clicks/impressions?Yes, it does and also has the option of sending out an email report to each of your sponsors with how many clicks/impressions were made within a month.

Hi, thanks for this mod.

I have a question... How can i fix the right bar ?

http://img145.imageshack.us/img145/1326/rightbar.jpg

[imedic]

I want to make a conditional on a banner related to a custom field in profile (field5). This field is a menu where users needs to select what it is.
unfortunately I was not able to make it work. Is either showing to all or not at all.

I have used
<if condition="in_array($bbuserinfo[field5], array(Tehnician Dentar, Companie Comerciala))">Companie Comerciala</if> to display Companie Comerciala only to array selections.

I have used in array numbers too but it did not work. I have tried with field5 only ... no luck
Any suggestions are great.

I had to restore my website using the backup. After restoring it I cannot see the vB Ad Management option in the admincp list at all. When I go to admincp/Plugin & Products/Manage Products it is listed there and enabled. I have the current version, and it did work before. The ads don't show up on my forum page and only the right ad strip shows up on my cmps homepage. Can anyone help me figure out how to correct this issue?

[theparentpack]

Me too, anyone know how to fix this?
Sorry if this has been posted before I didn't see it.

I have this installed when it was released it seems to be working ok for me BUT I can not find the way to access it for use any were on my admin panel I thought the button was down at the bottom of the menu but it's not there anymore.
I can still see it on the plugin manager I can disable and enable it but I can't access the pages to put the codes for ad's in etc. Any ideas?

same here,any answer from the coder of this mod or anyone who can help ?

Have you looked at bottom of list on the left? Settings are not in VBulletin options as other modifications but under Maintanance link bottom left.

Ads are not showing because you did not put code inside and did not activate banner (each one needs to be set on).

[theparentpack]

Thanks imedic, I actually had issues with another mod and everything was fine once I solved it.

Can anyone help me adjust my ad location a bit. As it is I can only get my ads to show up on the right side of my forums, and not on both the right and the left. I would like them to show up on both, and outside of the white background area on my site (http://www.theparentpack.org/forums). I would like them to show up on both sides on the blue background. I would be forever grateful if someone could help me achieve this.

[Nickbe]

Wish somebody could VB4 this mod. This is much better the vBulletins inflexible crappy ad management system.

Does anybody know of any solutions paid or unpaid for vb4 that work as well as this?

[bada_bing]

please update this to 4.0 love this mod

[vitrag24]

New Bug for vBulletin 3.8.7

After upgrading vbulletin to 3.8.7 ( latest version) you will have an issue adding new members from admincp, when you create a new member from admincp it will give you below error :

Fatal error: Call to a member function do_affiliates() on a non-object in /home/user/public_html/includes/class_dm_user.php(2957) : eval()'d code on line 12

[Artes_Marciales]

Link d?ont work : S
Installation instructions:

anyone know where are the installation instructions?

[VHLinks]

Yes, it does and also has the option of sending out an email report to each of your sponsors with how many clicks/impressions were made within a month.

Am I missing something? Where is this functionality located I have looked everywhere for it?

[Panzer Max]

Well done, man! :up:


Ok I can get ads to show up but any way to fix the footer link?

http://www.hostingtropolis.com

I'm using 3.8.4 and the footer link would be nice if it would just move down a line (I've tried <br /> didn't work)

EDIT: Seems I had to remove my own copyright text which isn't right and insert it manually. I'm gonna dig for his phrase and fix it myself I guess.

Alright here's a fix:

Go to Plugin & Products System -> Plugin Manager -> Edit vB_Ad_management_global_ads (global_start for hook)

Find:
$vbulletin->options['copyrighttext'] .= 'Ad Management plugin by <a href="http://redtyger.co.uk/" target="_blank">RedTyger</a>';

Replace with this:

$vbulletin->options['copyrighttext'] .= '<br />Ad Management plugin by <a href="http://redtyger.co.uk/" target="_blank">RedTyger</a>';

Volia! Much better looking IMO :)

Also for those who can't get it to work on 3.8, that's because you have to put the same thing within each ad spot like for instance...

I have this inserted in my header template:
$ad_location[ad_header_logo]

So I put this into the ad management settings for header (the box for header inclusion).

Volia it turns on!

Hope this helps.

[cwmateiuc]

this ad manager does not work with 4+?

No it does not.

[holocron]

for conditionals, the $forum variable always seems to come up blank. I also tried used

<if condition="$foruminfo['forumid'] == 67">HELLO</if>

as well as

<if condition="in_array($forum, array(67))">Hello</if>

with no luck. I've tested modifying the vB template manually and the $foruminfo['forumid'] variable works fine.

Any ideas?

[aapkae]

I have just upgraded from 4.02 to 5.02 and after adding advertisment sourcecode into proper fileds, advertisment source code is not showing up in the forum source code. I have placed advertisment source code into navbar and right column

What could be wrong? Auto-insert option failed? If so, why?

Update: product uninstalled.

[forumrunt]

do we need to edit templates at all my ads arnt showing

[Boosted Euro]

I was running 3.14 and finally decided to upgrade to 5.02. Uninstalled Per directions and I installed 5.02 but its not working. The options come up in my admin CP on the left but if i click any of the buttons i get 404 error.

I have everything installed where i believe they should be, only thing im unsure of is VBam_Advertisment.php in the upload file.

any help would be great

Edit: looks like i have it taken care of.

Got everything working, had a safety feature I didn't know about .


2 problems though, my header banner is up to high. Anyone have any idea how to make it come down so its across the top of the nav bar with my Logo?? I tried <br> but that just makes space above the Banner , doesn't make it come down. I had it level with the logo on 3.14 but I don't remember what i did to fix it as i set it up years ago.

Second issue is my banners wont auto rotate. Anything else need to be done besides just setting the refresh time?

Issue can be seen at http://nemotorsport.com/

thank you

I just installed this myself and I am very novice. Do you have anything putin the " Header inclusion" ??

Alternatively, enter any other unique text which appears in the template(s). The text will be searched for and your advertisement will be placed immediately after it.

At first my banner wouldn't show cause this was blank or the wrong word. You need to find a unique word in your template that is where you want the banner to be. I just kept trying words until it was finally in the right spot.

i think the problem is that it only edits postbit and i am using postbit legacy. could be wrong, but thats what i believe
