ok it works now, but how do i cloak my urls????

i mean REAL cloaking, i currently have a cool javascript that i created myself, that cloaks the url. even when u right click on the link. Most cloaking software fails on this, but not my script, so how do i implement that?

ok huge bug!!

this line will only show the first ad
PAN ad: <ad what="zone:2" /> <ad what="zone:1" />

Thx for reporting this. It was caused by a buggy regular expression and is fixed in version 1.0.3 of this product. Please see upgrade section in my first post.

This basically will allow you to have several <ad what="zone:1" /> anywhere in your templates and be sure that the same banner is not displayed twice.

I also thought about this before, but didn't implement it, because in my eyes, a zone denotes a location and therefore should be unique on page.
But as it might be useful for some people, I added this to version 1.0.3 introducing a new setting "Banner Dupe Check". However - I don't recommend using the same zone repeatedly on a page.

Great Mod! works great! I have setup my first zone in the header, but now I want to add another one perhaps just above the forums and below the shoutbox.....I know I just have to change the zone id...but I can't seem to find the right spot in the templates. I tried forumhome and forumdisplay just above $forumbits but that didn't work. Anyone know?

I dont show any banner, i solved this just copyng invocation code of phpAdsNew in my Header template, that's all, whitout using any product.

I don't know about this one, it doesn't seem very newbie user friendly for me. My eyes are bugged eyed right now from reading about 300 pages of installation and I still can't get it to work. Anyone got a Dummies guide for this? I know I am soooo close I can smell it like a fart in the car on a hot august day. Once I create the new advertiser and upload the banner, I can't figuer out how to get it to show up in the linked zone section.

/edit
Making progress here. Bent and determined to figure this one out. I am now getting this error when I add the <ad what"zone:1" /> to the header

Warning: view_ad(/forums/includes/lib-xmlrpc-class.inc.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /includes/init.php(273) : eval()'d code on line 68

Can anyone please tell me what that means. Be gentle I've just started doing VB in the last few weeks.

Masiello

Put that library in to the includes directory of your forum, it is inside "libraries" directory of phpAdsNew, when you try again if it ask needing another libs, you find in the same "libraries" dir.

Trickle

12-29-2005 06:36 PM

So far I got it to work now. Or at least the banner appears. I guess the lesson I learned is to take breaks and refresh the mind. Getting pissed cause I couldn't figure it out only made things worse.

CHECK INSTALLED!!!

I wanted my banners to appear under the Navbar so I added

Code:

<ad what"zone:1" />

To the bottom of the template and when I went to save it I got the following error. Any idea?

Code:

You have to set the correct path of phpAdsNew on the forum

Hostboard

12-29-2005 10:02 PM

I did that :) I even cut and pasted it in to the command line to change directories and it is perfect.

Maybe I need a slash at the end?

Code:

This has to be the most difficult thing to get working (sigh)

I've just done it so it's not quite well tested yet, I'm sure that the whole thing could be improved via the ad tag (something like <ad what="zone:1" duplicate_banner_id="1" /> or <ad what="zone:1" duplicate_banner_id="0" /> to switch the option on or off).

Hope this help and thanks again for this great plugin!

I got it to work finally, by doing this (sigh)...it's a good hack, just needs better instructions and support IMHO. I'm gonna click install now. Thanks.

Ok I added this line but now I get 2 errors when I try entering

Code:

<ad what"zone:1" />

into my NAVBAR template

Parse error: parse error, expecting `T_STRING' or `T_VARIABLE' or `T_NUM_STRING' in /usr/local/path/to/forums/includes/init.php(292) : eval()'d code on line 123

Code:

Snipit from view_ad function plugin to show where I put the statement

Code:

Remember bannerid to prevent showing banner multiple times on same page

         $phpAds_context[] = array('!=' => 'bannerid:'.$ad['bannerid']);

        }

 

        return "

$phpAds_context[] = array('!=' => 'bannerid:'.$ad['bannerid']);

Ok now I am not happy. I have been trying to figure this out so I chnaged the config file of phpAdsNew as noted, copied the 2 files over to the includes directory and blew VB completly out of the water. All I get now when trying to access the forums or ACP is:

Code:

Parse error: parse error, expecting `T_STRING' or `T_VARIABLE' or `T_NUM_STRING' in /usr/local/pwrhouse/htdocs/hostboard/forums/includes/init.php(292) : eval()'d code on line 122

Can anyone tell me how to manualy modify whatever it is I need to get at least the system back up???

i'm quite new to all this, how do i install the xml file?

kevinrstruck

01-02-2006 07:38 PM

I have this working but I am not sure of one thing:

I am using a affiliate program for a company that using Kolimbo.com to run their program.

The code they give me to produce the banner looks like this:

Code:

<A href="?kbid=62123&sub=153310&img=Adorama-468x60.gif" onmouseover="window.status='http://www.adorama.com';return true;" onmouseout="window.status=' ';return true;" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.adorama.com/banners/affil/Adorama-468x60.gif" border=0></a><img src="http://www.myaffiliateprogram.com/u/adorama/showban.asp?id=62123&sub=153310&img=Adorama-468x60.gif" border=0>

How in the heck would I put this code in to PAN?

Then again, maybe this is a question best answered over at the PAN support area, but I figured maybe someone here may be able to help.

Great plugin by the way...Nice job.

VB CP -> Plugin System -> Manage Products -> Add/Import Product

There you can browse to the copy of the XML file you downloaded and save to your local machine then click IMPORT.

@Kevinstruck

You can copy that whole code right into your "html" banner. Then also copy the href part into the href section in PAN.

kevinrstruck

01-03-2006 01:17 AM

Well, I thought I had this working.

Using the <ad.../> tags, I can not get a banner to display. Using the direct code from PAN, the banners display.

I installed PAN outside my forums directory in the root so I could use it on my portal as well.

I tried an URL in the Server Setting and Opt screen and uploaded lib-xmlrpc-class.inc.php and lib-xmlrpc.inc.php into the forums/includes folder to see if that would work but it would not.

I then tried a full path:

/home/thephoto/public_html/adserver

But that did not work.

I then tried ../adserver

but that did not work either.

Again, I tested PAN and it is serving ads on both a test page and with the direct code (Javascript) pasted into my header.

Anyone have any suggestions?

Make sure you've done what was posted a few pages back...

Quote:

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.

Once I did that it worked fine with my PAN in a separate db.

kevinrstruck

01-03-2006 01:53 AM

Yes, I did that.

Here is my config file:

Code:

// Database local connection using sockets

$phpAds_config['dblocal'] = false;



// Database hostname

$phpAds_config['dbhost'] = 'localhost';



// Database port

$phpAds_config['dbport'] = 3306;



// Database username

$phpAds_config['dbuser'] = 'xxxxx';



// Database password

$phpAds_config['dbpassword'] = 'xxxxx';



// Database name

$phpAds_config['dbname'] = 'thephoto_adserver';



// Database table name prefix

$phpAds_config['table_prefix'] = 'phpads_';



// Database table type

$phpAds_config['table_type'] = 'MYISAM';



// Use persistent connections to the database

$phpAds_config['persistent_connections'] = true;



// Use INSERT DELAYED in logging functions?

$phpAds_config['insert_delayed'] = true;



// Database compatibility mode to insure phpAdsNew

// won't disturb an available database connection

$phpAds_config['compatibility_mode'] = true;







/*********************************************************/

// The URL to your phpAds-installation

$phpAds_config['url_prefix'] = 'http://www.thephotostation.net/adsever/';



// Is the admin interface enabled

$phpAds_config['ui_enabled'] = true;



// Only allow access to the admin interface if SSL is used

$phpAds_config['ui_forcessl'] = false;

Another issue: When I add the tag, I get a blank screen on my forums. When I take the ad code out, the forums come up normally.

Here is the ad code I am trying to use:

<ad what="zone:2" />

My Header Template is:

Code:

<!-- logo -->

<a name="top"></a>

<table border="0" width="$stylevar[outertablewidth]" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" align="center">

<tr>

        <td align="$stylevar[left]"><a href="$vbpoptions[portalhome]"><img src="$stylevar[titleimage]" border="0" alt="$vboptions[bbtitle]" /></a></td>

        <td align="$stylevar[right]"> 

                     &nbsp;

<!--

  NEW HEADER &amp; NAVBAR



  Now that the nav buttons are in the

  navbar template, you can stick whatever

  you like into this space.



  This makes it much easier for novice

  admins to customize their header

  template without affecting important

  navigation elements.

-->

        </td>

</tr>

</table>

<!-- /logo -->



<!-- content table -->

$spacer_open



$_phpinclude_output

My path to PAN in Server Settings and Opt is:

/home/thephoto/public_html/adserver
I hope I have included enough info for someone to figure this out for me.
