the ads are not showing up on any of my threads.

Sorry, but what is the actual point in this mod? I really cannot see the point, the ad locations in vB are easy to use. A mod for mods sake IMO.

It's been explained a number of times why this modification is needed and appreciated, including in direct response to you posting much the same thing multiple times in this thread.
Trolling for trolling's sake, IMO. We get it, you don't think it's necessary, fine, don't install it.
Your contributions to this thread are even more pointless than you claim this mod to be.

It's 3.7 only as the ad location stuff was only added in then.

I do have 2 questions about this modifiction:

- Why are you distributing default templates in this modification? By doing this, you are overwriting the default vBulletin templates in the MASTER_STYLE, making it impossible to revert to the original templates, even after uninstalling this modification. Doing this is an absolute "Don't" in my view. On the other hand, this modification will probably stop working if any of the default templates used by this modification is ever updated in the default vBulletin package.
- Why are you processing only at the 'global_start' hook location? I strongly suggest to use more specific hook locations to avoid code being run on pages where they don't have any function. This is bad for performance.

I haven't installed this (and based on the post above will likely wait it out) but i wanted to weigh in on those posts trashing the idea as useless. I was thinking of writing something exactly just like this in order to not have to delve into the ad location templates whenever I wanted to manage new ad code. I think this is a useful concept. I would argue this is not a mod for mod sake, but rather a method for making ad location template edits centralized and easier to manage. Kudos to the developer for the idea. When/if the comments Marco brought up are taken care of I will install.

Now I got confused. Even if this is in 3.7 by default, where can I find those options? How can I use those?

ahem.. ahem.. newbie is here.
