uuuhh thxxxxxxxx i stop the auto refresh it's start working but with auto refresh it is not work.......

thxxxxxxxxx

Simon Lloyd 11-25-2008 04:45 PM

No problem.

karel1985 11-26-2008 09:09 AM

Can i suggest something for a future version?
Maybe u can provide an Autorefresh for all location (example right/left columns?)
It would be interesting because i have some advertisers and would like to rotate the banners.

And maybe a option where you can set the time to change the banners? Or can this be done? example 10 seconds?

Thanks,

Simon Lloyd 11-26-2008 01:37 PM

There is already an option to set banner timing in VBulletin Options>Advertisment System Settings & Slide Show:
PAUSE BETWEEN BANNERS
SET PAUSE BETWEEN BANNERS
enter 3000 if you want pause each banner 3 secondes .
Error:
1
animation speed
enter 10 for 10 secondes . Greater is faster.

The banners in left and right column can be rotated by adding more ad code to those locations seperated by a | (Ctrl+\)

I cannot seem to get the ads to display on PMs. I reviewed all the template edits, but I don't know which one is suppose to make it work there. I have the option enabled in the CP.

Any ideas?

Simon Lloyd 11-28-2008 06:37 PM

So in the Advertisement System (Posts, PMs & Announcements) you have added some ad code and enabled this option "Display advertisements with private messages?
Choose Yes to have advertisements display with private messages. Yes No
"

It works fine for me, if you want to see it working join me here The Code Cage then pm me and i will pm back!

luket79 11-30-2008 10:46 PM

I figured it out, I didn't know the usergroup permissions for the postbit inherited to the PMs. I got it how I want it now!

Thanks!

Simon Lloyd 12-01-2008 07:08 AM

Luke glad you're sorted!

appsfinder 12-02-2008 04:26 PM

hi the auto refresh works in the forum but not on my home page i use vbadvence and vbgallery is there any way to fix this so it works on all pages?

TaMpE 12-02-2008 07:54 PM

Hi guys.

I have installed this thing. and I also have registered on AdBrite and Google Adsence but I don't know where to put the codes.

Where do I put the AdBrite's full page ads codes? and where do I put the google's ads codes (I want it to be under every first post).

Thanks

Simon Lloyd 12-03-2008 04:16 AM

Firstly, check the terms of service for google and adbrite, i believe you cannot display both on the same page. The ad code is pasted in VBulletin Options > Advertisement System (Forumbit Threadbit & Full page)

karel1985 12-06-2008 10:19 AM

Is it possible to enable the right column also on the forumdisplay and topics?
i think its just adding the $ad_rightcolumn_code in the templates, but i'm not sure where

DjEddie 12-06-2008 01:19 PM

ok, stupid question time:

Where do you go to see the Full Page Advertisement on the forum, I know where to set up in the admin cp ... but can't see for the life of me where on the actual forum you would see this?..

Any ideas?

Thank you :)

soundbarrierpro 12-06-2008 08:42 PM

Hi, got it installed but can't for the life of me figure out the txt. instructions.

                <if condition="$ad_location['ad_header_logo']">$ad_location[ad_header_logo]<else />&nbsp;</if>
        </td>
Add :

<td align="$stylevar[right]"><center><if condition="$ad_headerLogo"><center>$ad_headerLogo</center><else />&nbsp;</if></center>
*** Footer 2 edits :
1= in top add :  $ad_footerStart

Just add the usergroups id who you do not wish to see the ads, there is also something similar below to explicitly show the ads to certain groups.

You will see at my site http://www.thecodecage.com/forumz that you can see the ads but other members who belong to different usergroups see ads in different places to you the unregistered user.


Hi, I'm really insterested in your help, but not your site. It seems you're more interested in pimping the site rather than helping to explain the very rudementary instructions.

GeorgeB85 12-07-2008 12:31 AM

Does this work with commission junction ads? I had my webmaster install this on my forum, but I cant get the ads to show up. Any idea why? I am running 3.7.4

Thanks for any help!

Because most likely your webmaster had the same problem just about everybody in this thread had. The instructions for the template edits are useless. They make no sense. He/she has to make the template edits, otherwise this mod won't work.

If you read the posts in this thread you will see that i have been explanitory, and the reason for givening my site is not to PIMP but to allow folk to see what can be acheived on a live board. If you have read the posts and not been able to understand the "rudementary" instructions i have given then you're going to have trouble.

Sorry i've not been of any help to you!

justchil 12-07-2008 01:53 PM

Nice mod! I had to tweak the locations of a couple ads... but that is to be expected with a custom theme :)

Thank you and I appreciate the fact you know where to put everything.

But......

As stated in my prior post, the instructions make no sense. Flipping through the 50 or so pages here I see I'm not the only one who doesn't understand how the developers instructions are set.

All I want is for the instructions to be laid out so people can understand them. I'm pretty secure in understanding hoe the ACP and the mod is supposed to look and work. It's the templates configuration changes I can't figure out.

Simon Lloyd 12-08-2008 06:05 AM

If your header template is unchanged then it should look like this in 3.7.4 PL1, i have made bold and magenta the line you are looking for.
Code:

<!-- logo -->
<a name="top"></a>
<table border="0" width="$stylevar[outertablewidth]" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" align="center">
<tr>
        <td align="$stylevar[left]"><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 />&nbsp;</if>
        </td>
</tr>
</table>
<!-- /logo -->

<!-- content table -->
$spacer_open

$_phpinclude_output

$ad_location[ad_header_end]

If you want you can mail me the templates you want the code adding to and i will do them over the next few days (work willing), pm me for e-mail address.

You might consider asking for help in a fashion that is not seem like you are whining or complaining about free code and free support, you might find people are more receptive to help you. It also does help if you read the instructions carefully as going through 50 pages of forum posts sure sounds like a waste of time.

They make perfect sense to me. Its just like every other mod that requires a template edit. You have to do them in the Admincp if you have never dealt with a template mod before.

Right, its in your Admincp > Styles & Templates > Style Manager > Select "Edit Templates" from the dropdown menu > double click on the "header" template found in the list.

You will see the code editor open up and this is where you ad your mods.

I think you misunderstand what I ask. I'm not whining and I am indeed thanking Simon Lloyd for showing us how the adverts should look. However, from all his initial reply I still didn't see anything technical.

Mr Simon Lloyd has understood what I said and has responded again and I thank him.

It isn't that I don't know how to use the scripts/code/or mods, I have customized virtually my entire infrastructure. The part I don't understand is the instructions supplied. I've never before seen instructions like this and it makes no sense to me. I don't understand what he direct to additionally configure.

Instructions are normally in a text file like this:obviously everybody does things differently so I was asking for somebody to maybe put the instructions in the order most mods instructions look like (BELOW)

Step 1 - In "HEADER Template"

Find:

here is my code, this is the code to look for.........yada yada

Under - add:

Here is my new code, this is what I am showing to add to the existing code
--------------------------------------------

Step 2 - In "FORUMHOME Template

Find:


And so on and so on.......etc

Have you performed all the template edits required to display the ads?

I will try that now. :cool:

justchil 12-12-2008 04:22 PM

This might be a dumb question but I'm going to ask anyways...

I don't see ads on search result pages and "new posts" (same thing). I'm assuming there is another template for these though?

go to admincp , vbulletin options , Advertisement System (Settings & Slideshow)

Do NOT display advertisements for scripts:
and remove search

DawnsWebDesigns 12-13-2008 04:08 AM

Greetings. I installed everything & everything's working fine.

I was confused about side columns cuz I don't have any & didn't add that mod to get them. I just didn't do the template edits & turn on the ad codes for those sections.

Otherwise I had to go look at I believe your site to figure out some of the rest of that. Of course I understood header/footer well enough. Speaking of which, down under Enable Affiliates advertisements in the main forum? you have Enter Your Code Here Sperated By Commas ,

It should be separated by | because I tried a comma & ended up with every ad I put in there showing up on the same page...which was around 6 of them? :o

After viewing your site I was able to figure out Posts/PMs & Announcements but I'm still having trouble with forum bit, thread bit, & full page. You mean pages like contact us, the members list & such?

And what is the difference between forum bit, thread bit & posts? I have a few boards & don't want to list them here: Forumbit code with ForumIDs:. If I don't post any at all would it then be global or make it basically in-active?

I'm also confused about Threadbit : Display advertisement with every Xth thread especially Enter the the positions on a page where you want your advertisements to display, separated by |. Is there any way you can give us some examples?

The only thing that attracts me to vb's built in advertisement placing system is the ability to edit templates & add different add codes to different themes so they match. But the ability to only allow some people to see ads whereas others (paid subscribers) wouldn't have to, the ability your mod has, won out. Am I missing the templates & if not could this be something you add in the future? :confused: Then it would be perfect. :) It's really good now & thank you for it but then it would be perfect. :D

Simon Lloyd 12-13-2008 11:34 AM

here's an example of the code seperated by the pipe (|)
Code:

<script type="text/javascript"><!--
google_ad_client = "pub-1234567890";
/* 728x90, created 9/26/08 */
google_ad_slot = "1234567";
google_ad_width = 728;
google_ad_height = 90;
//-->
</script>
<script type="text/javascript"
src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js">
</script>|<script type="text/javascript"><!--
google_ad_client = "pub-1234567890";
/* 728x90, created 9/24/08 */
google_ad_slot = "1234567";
google_ad_width = 728;
google_ad_height = 90;
//-->
</script>

Your positioning is done like this: 1|5|12
so the ads will be shown after the first post then the fifth then the twelveth

wmlvb 12-13-2008 05:18 PM

Is this mod a compliment to banner rotator, or is it one or the other. Which one has the most options? Thanks!

Simon Lloyd 12-13-2008 06:32 PM

I believe that this mod is the most versatile as you can rotate banners and place ads practically everywhere and whichever intervals you choose even in your archives!

Eneswar 12-14-2008 09:39 PM

Hey im trying to add this on my forums but the problem is im using this style https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=171410 and its "Header" is different to the normal ones so i cant find the edit i need to do in it, any help with this please?
