Is there no support for this??? The support option for this plugin is checked off.. if there's no support it should be unchecked.... I still don't have this working and I just lost two sponsors yesterday because of it.... My remaining 4 sponsors are threatnening to leave as well.... Should I just uninstall this nightmare plugin or is there going to be support??????

I think you have already answered your own question. If I was having a problem with it, I would have switched to another method WELL before losing a sponsor over it. That sounds like poor handling of the situation on your part, but that's just my opinion.

I don't know what to say. I had it working on my test board and then put 3.5.2 on my live forum. I installed this there the same as on my test board and it wouldn't work. I did get it working so I thought I'd found the problem. However when I went to confirm this the change made no difference and things continued to work.

At the moment I have this running on my live forum via xml and it's serving ads fine. I also added a conditional so that the AdSense stuff doesn't violate the TOS for my google ads by creating 2 zones that are the same except one doesn't include the google ads.

In theory this is supposed to work if phpAdsNew is in a separate db but that generates errors so I'm using the xml interface. My board's low traffic so that's OK. It apparently does work fine if the phpAdsNew db is the same as the vb db.

Way to shift the blame Conq. This is SUPPOSED to be a supported plugin. The blame for not getting support does NOT lay with me.

You're the one trying to blame the author of a FREE hack for the loss of your sponsors. That's BS. That's all on you for not having it tested and confirmed to be working in a test environment before going live.

Version 1.0.2 is out with a minor fix towards PHP 5.1.1 compatibility.
Please make sure to have set $phpAds_config['compatibility_mode'] = true; in phpAdsNew config file, as this resolves problems with a local phpAdsNew installation when phpAdsNew's tables are in a database different from the one used by your vBulletin board.

Whether it's free or not is NOT relevant at all. The FACT that the "SUPPORTED" option is checked and I have receiver NO support IS!!!!!!!!!! If I had received the support I am suppose to receive to get it working I would NOT have lost sponsors. If the support option was not checked off I wouldn't have posted for support here in the first place. I probably wouldn't even have installed it. But given the fact that it is SUPPOSED to be supported I felt reasonably safe in installing it expecting I would receive assistance if needed. The entire issue at hand is that the author is misleading people by saying he supports the plugin when he doesn't. END OF STORY!!!!

He seems to be supporting it just fine... He even posted another update.

Again, you put a hack onto your production site without testing it and confirming it was working first, so losing the sponsors was completely YOUR fault, no matter how you would like to try to twist it around.

@Xstreamist:
"Supported" means that I look after this thread, fix reported bugs (those with useful descriptions, not ones like "it doesn't work") and make sure it works as per description on clean installations of recent versions of vBulletin and phpAdsNew.
It does not mean that I'm giving free personal assistance for a user.
