Hello
although vbulletin 5 has no good options for developers and make the life hard for us , but I decided to go through it and adopt my previouse mods to vbulletin 5 hope you guys like em.
1What does this hack do ?
This mod simply lets you put your desired ads or any other codes just in the middle of first post , in each page of a thread .
This mod is updated in such a way that it recognized end of the sentences by ".!?" so it wont break the post content on the wrong place instead it only inserts ads after the sentence , near to the middle of the post.

1Known Issues :
you shouldn't edit your first post , that causes real problems , and you lose all the contents of first post. (this is solved in version 1.1)
Vbulletin 5 AJAX and Post caching sucks! and this might have a little bit conflicts with that system since vbulletin 5 is not written professionally and has many and many bugs and downsides.
sometimes it's not exactly in the middle of posts , that's because in logic sometimes there is no real half point , while some posts have even number of lines and some posts have odd number of lines . but it tries to put it to the nearest location to the mid point! :)1Try not to mention following things :
if you think it's against google TOS then don't install it ;) but keep in mind you can also use it with other network ads , and keep in mind at no point google directly mentioned it's against their TOS to put adsense in between content , so do not insist :D
1Installation Guide:
1- upload the MidPostAds folder to its equivalent folder on your FTP site.
there is only 1 folder: yourwebsite/core/packages/MidPostads
2- goto: Admincp=>Products & Hooks=>Manage Products=>[Add/Import Product]
choose the xml file we provided : MidPostAds.xml , set overwrite to YES (if it's upgrade) and hit "Import"
3- File edit (only 3 lines) : open this file : yourwebsite/includes/vb5/template/nodetext.php
search for this line:
$found = $cache->read(array_keys($this->placeHolders));
and after it add this:
if (class_exists('MidPostAds_Api_node')) {$found = MidPostAds_Api_node::MidPostAdsInsertion($found); }$i=1;
--------------------
now search for this line:
$parsed = $parser->doParse(
and just BEFORE it add this:
if (class_exists('MidPostAds_Api_node')) {$textData['rawtext'] = MidPostAds_Api_node::MidPostAdsInsertionRaw($textD ata['rawtext'],$i);}$i=$i+1;
--------------------
find this line:
$cache->write($cacheKey, $parsed, 10080, $events);
and remove it or comment it
DONE
you can now go to admincp => Settings => MidpostAds
and change the settings or import your Ads code to be shown.
please keep in mind vbulletin 5 has lots if issues with posts Caching and sometimes needs to refresh the page or wait for changes to take effect
