Has anybody got this function to work yet?
I've tried all manner of things but it doesn't seem to work. I initially set it to 14 days, no emails were sent, so I changed it to 7 days and went through each and every banner and reset the notifications, but still no emails have been sent. Is this working for anybody on vb 3.8?

I haven't gotten far and I'm already nervous.

I was about to upload the files within the uploads folder, when I noticed that there was a folder called "admincp" in there.

I don't want to overwrite the "admincp" folder that is already on the server for my forum.

If I upload the RBS "admincp" folder, that would override the current one. That seems like it would screw everything up.

Could anyone tell me what I should do? :eek:

There are basically two ways to do it - a hard way and an easy way. Obviously both require an FTP client such as Filezilla.

• Hard: Dig down into admincp/ and just upload the files you find there. Tedious, and prone to error.
• Easy: Rename the "upload" folder to "forum" (or whatever you have your forum in) and drop it on public_html. FTP doesn't replace identical folders, it just properly adds files to them.

Anyone? No-one?

I have recently installed Google AdSense. I notice that the impressions displayed in my AdSense account are significantly less (10 TIMES LESS!!!!) than the impressions the RBS is reporting.

In short, AdSense tells me I've only served a total of 128,000 ad impressions, but RBS tells me that I've delivered way over ONE MILLION ad impressions in total.

I just don't know what to believe!

What's the flipping heck's happening here and how do I fix it???

......or is there nothing wrong with RBS and Google's just ripping me off?

This is a new function which I have only just installed and set for my two newest banners, so I won't know if mine are working for another 90 days.

Hi Videx,

Thanks for the reply.

I do use FileZilla. Can I just put the contents of the RBS' "admincp" into the "admincp" that is already on the server. Is that where those RBS' admin files are supposed to go?

Then I could just put the other files on the root level as well. But still not sure.

This really isn't the place for a complete FTP tutorial, but you can't just drop admincp on admincp because then it will simply make a folder admincp/admincp which is incorrect. You have to do it one of the ways I described earlier.

No, I was asking if I could put the contents (the files inside of the RBS admincp), INTO the admincp folder that is already on the server.

Because if I were to just drag the whole RBS admincp folder over onto the server in Filezilla, a pop up window comes up and says something like "that directory already exists... do you want to overwrite it?"

Ok, well if I don't hear otherwise, I guess that I will just try to change the name of the upload folder to forum and then drop it on the root level of my site, as you described Videx.

I don't have a public_html folder... I'm hosted on GoDaddy. I don't think they use that.

I just call it the root level of my site (where the index.php file lives).

I was thinking that if I started renaming the folders that it may mess up the functionality of the banner system. That's why I was trying to avoid doing that.
