I want to show a header ad ONLY to non-registered/not logged in users.

If I Enable Usergroup 1, and only usergroup 1 in vB Ad Management, then the forum post ads don't show up even though they're housed in the the Forum Ad Manager > Posts section. When I only enable non-registered, they still see forum and thread ads though ...

Question: How can I Enable only one ad type (header) for one usergroup without the rest of the ads being affected?

Here's a quick word-diagram to show what I'm looking for.

non-registered/non-logged-in : See all ads
Registered normal user: See all ads except for the header
Registered Sponsor: Don't see any ads except for Private Message and email.


Update: The "Search" ads still appear for the thread ads regardless of who's enabled/disabled for usergroups, that's something that threw me ...

:confused: anyrponse!

Can anyone rearrange this modification? I think that lot of us are willing to pay for this mod but with supports and updates.

Work-around solution for this issue
I'm going to use the Notices feature to show the the header image that I spoke of and then turn on the ads as they appeared before and then cut down the number of ads in general so they balance better and will help me earn the eCPMs that I am looking for.

Its not supported and pretty much dead.

good job on this!!!

Red Tyger did this before. When will people learn? Why does vB.org even let him post broken hacks? As a matter of fact, it's very foolish for anyone to install unsupported modifications. If you don't want to support your hacks, coders, then don't post them. No glory allowed unless you work for it.

Jim

well it did work at one time. nothing against him (Redtyger). i jist don't want people installing broken hacks. at one time it was supported. I don't understand why vb.org doesn't monitor these hacks.

Hey,

I forgot the code to input next to my image code, for if I want to show a particular banner only to a certain usergroup. Can anyone help me out here?

Thanks!

I sure would have liked to use this mod.

I installed and things seemed to be working - until I tried to post, reply, or quick reply.

When I moved my mouse pointer to the empty text box to type a message, the cursor would not appear and I could not type anything. The only way I could get it to work was to RIGHT-click, select all, and then left click so the cursor would show up so I could type.

What's strange is until and if I can get the cursor to show up in the text box, I could see the pointing hand flashing as if there was what I would call 'hotlink overrun'.

Anyone have any ideas how to check and/or fix this?

How about a suggestion for another advertising mod that works well and will allow me to:

Rotate banners all over site, except certain forums where I want to place fixed banners in those certain forums.

I went to check if I had the same problem as soon as I read your comment over email. It returned negative. What you experienced seem to only be for yourself, I didn't get that error. I posted, replied, quick-replied well - without problems.

If this doesn't work for you, try the one released by Giovianne (sorry if I got that wrong, cant really remember). That might work for you, and is as good. That didn't work for me, so i'm using this.

I have just upgraded to 5.02 from version 3.16.

I have managed to get things working mostly the way we want. However, we're having one issue with the new version.

We can't figure out how to get the advertisement working on forumhome as we had it on the older version.

Basically we want to show a 468x15 google text ad below the second category of subforums on the homepage. Ideally the ad should appear below the first subforum in the second category - as it did previously.

Any idea how we should set this up?

I have been experimenting for hours and nothing seems to work on forumhome properly.

Hey, it doesn't show up on my forumhome too. But i've learned to accept that.

My admin would like to be able to place specific "ads" on a per forum/thread basis to direct users around to different areas of their site.

I know that this can be done using conditions that show based on forum id or thread id.

But should this be done by creating multiple custom blocks or by creating one block that holds many different <if> conditionals (one per ad). (There will probably be a lot of these)

Thanks for your advice in advance.

Greatest Advertisement solution I have seen yet! Excellent work RedTyger!

One request I would like to put in is to have the ability to set the included/excluded usergroups for each ad location, instead of a global setting.

I know that's a good bit of work, but I for one really need that feature as we offer many levels of ads that change depending on your status. For instance, Guests have a Navbar ad, members do not... etc.

Id love to see this in all the Mods, vB, Forums, and Blog. I will send a healthy donation if you confirm this addition.

I have the vB Ad Management setup on my site to display advertisements. It is working everywhere on my site except for in the arcade.

If I view the page source I can see that the ad management add-on is trying to put in the code but it's just shooting blanks...

It is configured to show advertisements right under the navbar, and like I said it works everywhere else on the site, just not on the arcade pages. Seems like maybe there's a global variable missing or something.

I was able to edit the skin_arcade.php to manually insert the advertising code, but I wasn't able to figure out how to get it to not show ads for certain groups, so I'd prefer to get the vB Ad Management ads to appear in the arcade.

I'm also using vBAdvanced and my forum is under the /forum/ directory. You can see the website at http://www.brickjunkies.com.

Thanks for any help!

For the time being I'm manually inserting ads on the game page until I figure this out.
(I also posted this in the ibproarcade forum)

Wondering if you can help me with this. I installed this and it works great when I view it being logged in as the admin. However if I guess or regular registered user goes to where the ads are within posts they do not show up. Any idea why?

am getting this error in place where banner is supposed to show. All fine in the preview.

Warning: Division by zero in [path]/includes/functions_forumlist.php(393) : eval()'d code on line 40

any help?

is it possible to show the ads when a user is not logged in?....for example the forum home page...

I am getting the following error when I try to upload a file to the DOWNLOADS area. And have been told it is a Ad Management conflict error.

Fatal error: Call to a member function shareads() on a non-object in /home/scrapabl/public_html/forum/includes/functions.php(5721) : eval()'d code on line 11

I am running Ad Management 5.02, Downloads II 5.1.0 on Vbulletin Version 3.8.1

I have contacted my webhost and they have told me that it is a scripting error with the mod. I contacted the developer of Downloads II and it is not that mod causing the conflict.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

howcome none of the ads are showing up for me. Do I have to make template modifications? I don't see any instructions for that in the documentation

I've install this Mod and no problems so far.

Currently I run Adsense boxes (234 x 60 pixels) located in the Forum Description area? How can I use this mod to create unique Ad boxes for each forum, containing up to Six Advertisers per location. These boxes obviously need to rotate each of the Advertisers so they each get an equal amount of visibility.

Many thanks
Ron

Where I should upload the vbam_advertisment file? In the includes directory?

I think I have a probblem,I installed this mod,I see the banners but I'm the only one,others can see this,I checked with a test account
What happens?

Sorry if this has been answered previously, but I don't have time to search through 23 pages of posts. :)

The auto-refresh is causing multiple headers to appear, it goes back & forth from two headers to three and back to two, never back to just one. Any idea what's causing this? It's happening on my Photopost Classifieds pages. When I turn off auto-refresh, and refresh manually, the problem doesn't come up. Only with auto-refresh.

I cant contact redtyger
I want to by branding free option

redtyger is gone. his soul went to hell with the code he released.:confused::erm:

Don't think he's coming back :(

Having a problem adding and removing ad codes. Afterwards when I hit "SAVE" the page does nothing. It is dead, is this some kind of bug?

:(:mad::confused:

this dudes a joke, no reply to multiple emails and this mod doesnt work right. do not download it people!

thumbs down! zero stars!

bum

Hey I love this mod but is there anyway I can add a block somewhere on my Arcade? :

http://www.the360place.com/arcade.php?

Read the instructions .......... use a custom block and add the code to your chosen template.

That means the Photopost is conflicting with this mod. If you are running Google Adsense you are breaking the TOS by using auto refresh so turn it off.

I'm trying to find a mod that will allow a small banner or image beside the Forums as attached. Will this mod do this???

Got it figured out.....please disregard.

I need some help, I have this installed by when the plugin is enabled it breaks my vbportal with this error


How can I fix this

What dimensions can I use for a sidebar ad?

I'm going to use an affliate for my ads? So I need to get the credits for clicks and impressions.

Bonus question:

I can't use this mod for local advertising because there's no reports associated with it? Correct?

Thanks!! :)

while I see this mod is unsupported maybe someone could help me. I want to show ads in footer but for example forum id 2 I want one ad company and forum id 3 I want to show another ad company....

I get it to work somewhat but it only ever shows one ad company...tried using the if else conditions.

I have vbseo installed is this creating an issue? as it seems as if it is not seeing forum ids

How come I'm getting a horizontal scroll?

Secondly, if this isn't going to be supported is there another ad management software available and where is it? I did a search.

Thanks! :)

How do I fix this??

Removed as domain is now active again.

In the global_complete hook an error is occurring.

$output = $vbam->shareads($output);
