Which option? I upgraded to 2.4

Just place into the reserved space the desired placeholder (e.g. )

If it doesn't work for you (likely), you will have to add a style into additional.css and make it a bit more complex:

HTML Code:

.rbs_header_2 {

    height: 70px;

    left: 515px;

    position: absolute;

    text-align: right;

    top: 35px;

    width: 468px;

}

(adjust the parameters to your needs)

HTML Code:

<div class="rbs_header_2"></div>

<span style="text-decoration: line-through">Is there an alternative to this? It worked fine for months and now I'm 4.2 and ads don't show up at all. I just updated the banner swf and updated the ad html and it disappeared. Now no ads will work, in flash or java.</span>

Nevermind i fixed it by using the old html i had in the HTML box. No idea why the new one didn't work.

Well, it isn't there, unless you insert it the very first time :)

How can I see click/impresion history on some banner / time period?
Can I chose a time interval and see click and impresions numbers?

This failed for me. I installed all the files as indicated through FTP and then when I tried to install the xml doc, it gave me an error stating that there were missing files. Had to uninstall.

My question is: where did you upload the files? :)

You may extract some data from the rbs_hits table using phpMyAdmin, e.g. (for the clicks):

Code:

SELECT COUNT(*) 

FROM rbs_hits 

WHERE bannerid=123 

    AND dateline BETWEEN UNIX_TIMESTAMP('2012-01-01') AND UNIX_TIMESTAMP('2012-01-31')

The impressions counter is not traceable and would make no much sense.

This mod uses nothing from vb so it should work with all versions, old and new. At worst an update might remove your banner when you revert templates or when they change ad location hooks. But if you figured out how to put it there in the first place you should have no trouble putting it back.

No trick mate, works great on 4.2.0 PL2

If there's a 'trick' it might be to have the person read this entire thread themselves. Or at least report some sort of specific information besides "it doesn't work".

If you use the wrapper, all the problems should be solved. If not, you may try to insert the full banner (HTML <object>) code into the "text" field.

In any case, if you can run the banner from a clean HTML page the desired way, you can do it also from inside the RBS software.

Huh!!
Rotating Banner System has stopped working on my forum. Maybe today, maybe before 1-2 days.
I have not changed the configuration of the forum, nothing more've installed.
Gives no error, just does not show the code: (
Any suggestions?

And... I see strange code

Manage Products - Edit:
Version 2.4.0 - Install code:

Code:

$SQL = array();



$SQL[] = "ALTER TABLE `" . TABLE_PREFIX . "rbs_banners` CHANGE `width` `width` INT UNSIGNED NOT NULL DEFAULT '0'";

$SQL[] = "ALTER TABLE `" . TABLE_PREFIX . "rbs_banners` CHANGE `height` `height` INT UNSIGNED NOT NULL DEFAULT '0'";

$SQL[] = "ALTER TABLE `" . TABLE_PREFIX . "rbs_banners` CHANGE `maximpressions` `maximpressions` INT UNSIGNED NOT NULL DEFAULT '0'";

$SQL[] = "UPDATE `" . TABLE_PREFIX . "rbs_banners` 

    SET `text`='<script type=\"text/javascript\">

<!--

google_ad_client = \"ca-pub-4756434467422936\";

/* RBS Text */

google_ad_slot = \"5636861293\";

google_ad_width = 468;

google_ad_height = 60;

//-->

</script>

<script type=\"text/javascript\" src=\"http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js\"></script>'

    WHERE `text` LIKE '%pub-8477879996596626%'

        AND `text` LIKE '%468x60_as%'";

$SQL[] = "UPDATE `" . TABLE_PREFIX . "rbs_banners` 

    SET `text`='<script type=\"text/javascript\">

<!--

google_ad_client = \"ca-pub-4756434467422936\";

/* RBS Image */

google_ad_slot = \"8194031811\";

google_ad_width = 468;

google_ad_height = 60;

//-->

</script>

<script type=\"text/javascript\" src=\"http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js\"></script>'

    WHERE `text` LIKE '%pub-8477879996596626%'

        AND `text` LIKE '%8172517593%'";

$SQL[] = "UPDATE `" . TABLE_PREFIX . "rbs_banners` 

    SET `text`=REPLACE(`text`, 'pub-8477879996596626', 'ca-pub-4756434467422936')";

$SQL[] = "UPDATE `" . TABLE_PREFIX . "rbs_banners` 

    SET `md5key`=MD5(`name`)

    WHERE `md5key`='' 

        AND `text` LIKE '%ca-pub-4756434467422936%'";



run_sqls($SQL);

Whta is this - this is not my adsense - ca-pub-4756434467422936?
Hack?

If your banners stopped, check the dates. This is the most probable reason if you haven't changed anythings else.

kodbg

10-24-2012 04:01 PM

No, dates are OK - 2022 Year...
Impressions is OK too.
Maybe like a Windows OS - uninstall / fresh install?

if the impressions grow, it is at 99% a browser problem. banner impressions grow only when the banners are actually shown on page.

kodbg

10-24-2012 07:05 PM

mm, with "Impressions is OK too." i mean thаt i have set:
Max. Impressions
With this value you may limit how often banners are shown on your pages. to 4294967295 - so the problem is not there.

Videx

One of the first things you should do when troubleshooting is put up a static graphic and give us the link so we can at least tell you if we can see it.

Hiding your site or trying to use complex scripts like adsense just makes a solution that much more difficult.

kodbg

10-25-2012 03:50 AM

I tried it with text ...
I have deleted adsense code from several positions and put text "ZZZZ"
ZZZZ does not appear ...
It is not a browser problem.

If you keep max impressions to 0, it is not considered (as many other options).

If you have changed the styles and forgot to insert the placeholders, that would be another reason (but you said you have not changed anything).

So if you have these settings and really nothing changed between then and now:

Attachment 141978 (any position will do, if you have the placeholder)

Attachment 141979

Attachment 141980 (no forums selected)

banners must show.

Do you have maybe another plugin which hides or shows content and that is expired? For example the inbuilt advertising system?

I was doing very well.
a question.
as I can do to make the banners are not displayed on a custom page.
e.g.
www.misitio.com/foro/test.php
I have to put in the template test not to see the images of this hack.

The simplest way to place your banner is to just paste it in an existing vb ad location. But if you want banners in other locations you may edit templates if you want. No template editing is required.

hi..

i just put a flash banner in the RBS, here is the configuration:

my domain let say www.hot.com

1. URL: www.abcd.com
2. Image / Flash: www.hot.com/flash.swf
3. flash banner, object tag, embed tag = checked

the problem is, when i open my site using internet explorer, and i click the banner, the banner linked to the swf file "www.hot.com/flash.swf"

but no problem when i open the site using firefox and chrome, the banner linked to www.abcd.com

something wrong with the compability to IE ? i'm using IE 8

thanks

Gripi

11-11-2012 04:26 PM

just for update, after i unchecked the "object Tag", the flash banner works perfectly
