Google Adsense Banners (or others) in Your Archive

This is a mod that has been working since 3.5.x. It still works in 3.7 beta 3 from my testing. I am reposting it to make it easier for people to find.

It is tested on my vbulletin 3.7 test forum and can be seen at http://eaforums.com/forums/archive/index.php/

Essentially, this product allows you to have adsense (or other) banners in your forum archives.

To install:
Import the product. Edit the plugin code to substitute your adsense code.

Note: I have marked this mod as using external content because just about any ad banner system you use pulls in content from another site, unless you host the banner images locally.

Unfortunately, I work full time now and am not actively supporting my mods. Thank you for understanding.

If the example you provided, EA Forums, is owned by you, I'd advise you to change the font color of your vBulletin and vBSEO copyright information. It's a violation of the rules to make them unreadable.

Thank you Amy!!

One question:

I have two sites, one with vBSEO and one without, for some reason in the one with vBSEO works great but in the one without only the bottom ad shows. I tried everything, uninstall-install twice, check all my setting, copied the same codes from one site to the other and nothing works.

Do you have an idea what is the problem?

Can you send me the url of the one without? I can inspect the HTML. You might be missing a quote or something in that one. I've tested it on a site with and without with no differences.

Thanks Amy!

I found the problem, I forgot that I'm using the Zoints SEO mod in the forum that is not showing the ads, and Zoints has their own plug in to add ads in the archives. I uninstall yours :o and I'm using the Zoints plug in. Thanks

BTW I never thought the amount of archives pages that are viewed, I thought those pages never showed in the SERPS. I was missing revenue big time.

Thanks for the mod.

Looks interesting. Can it be installed without conflicting with the vbSEO Google/Yahoo Sitemap generator mod and without violating google adsense rules?

Hmm. And what is the way to uninstall it? Can't find a single link in neither products nor plugins

Hi Amy,

Thanks for a great hack. I installed it a few days back but have not changed the code up yet as thanks for your work.

It's appreciated!

You just go to "Manage products" then hit the drop down tab where it says "edit" for the "Archive Adsense" Product. It will say "uninstall".

I realize that there is no support for this but I might as well ask anyway.

Can anyone confirm that this does not break the TOS of Google Adsense?

amykhar

04-11-2008 12:05 PM

Why would it break the TOS? It simply puts ad banners on archive content pages. Or am I missing some use of it?

lol thank you so much stupid me could not find the name of the mod

I guess it shouldn't break the TOS.

Its just google demands you to have content on the site and I figured that the archive list may not be enough.

To the above poster (sorry, refuse to type that name :D) I can't check your installation because your homepage isn't linked. However, when you first start using adsense banners on new pages, it often takes some time for the banners to show up. This is because it takes google a bit of time to serve the ads to the page. If they are still not there after a day, pm me the link to your archive and I'll see what I can see.

I dont seem to get this working, I dont use Adsense, I use AdutAdWorld ads, my code is as follows:

Header

Code:

$output.='

<div align="center">



<!-- begin Ad World Media for channel: Amateur , publisher: XXX http://XXXXXXX.com , Ad Dimension: Super Banner - 728 x 90 -->

<script language="javascript">

document.write('<iframe src="http://newt1.adultadworld.com/jsc/z5/ff2.html?n=607;c=2437;s=6320;d=14;w=728;h=90;p=6320" frameborder=0 marginheight=0 marginwidth=0 scrolling="no" allowTransparency="true" width=728 height=90></iframe>');

</script>

<!-- end Ad World Media for channel: Amateur , publisher: XXX http://XXXXXXXX.com , Ad Dimension: Super Banner - 728 x 90 -->



</div>

</td>

</tr>

</table>

';

The error in the archive page is this:

Code:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in /usr/www/XXXX/www.XXXXXX.com/archive/index.php(254) : eval()'d code on line 6

And the same for the footer code, any help?

Thanks in advance...

Thanks :)

Edit: I'm having some problems with some conditionals. The ads show up alright, but the user groups I've specified, shouldn't see the ads. Here's part of my conditional code:

Code:

<if condition="is_member_of($bbuserinfo, 21, 26, 6, 1)"><p>No ads</p><else /><div align="center">

<p>Ads code</p>

</div>

</if>

But what it is doing, is (if using the code above) print out both "No ads" and "Ads code". What do I have to write in the plugin to get it to NOT display ads for members of user groups X, Y, Z, but show the ads for members of user groups A, B, C?

I also tried writing a PHP conditional

Code:

if (condition) {

}

else {

}

But that didn't work either :/

Thanks in advance :)

I believe your conditional is wrong..

Use this instead

Code:

<if condition="is_member_of($vbulletin->userinfo, 21, 26, 6, 1)"><p>No ads</p><else /><div align="center">

<p>Ads code</p>

</div>

</if>

Thanks for your help, but that didn't do the trick either :S

it shouldn't be !!

Its definitely something to do with conditional.. also try this:-

Code:

<if condition="is_member_of($vbulletin->userinfo, array(1, 2, 3))">

anyways Visit here for a nice Template Conditionals list.. it should solve your problem !!

Nope, that didn't work either :( Maybe it has something to do with the <phpcode> tag in the xml file?

Oh well... It wasn't meant to be I guess :D Hehe...

Thanks for the link by the way, will definitely take a look at it! :)

It might have something to do with the single quotes you've used in the document.write('') statement.

Code:

$output.='

^ is started and ended with a single quote ('), and I don't know for sure, but maybe the single quotes in the document.write statement causes the $output to be ended earlier than it should...

You can try changing the single quotes to double quotes;

Code:

document.write("Hello World!")

I have no idea if that'll do the trick though :/

Nice try, the error is gone now but my ads dont show up because I changed the Code. Any other way I could modify the outside Ad code? Thanks!

Hm, then try changing the $output.=' single quote to double quote. Don't forget the last one on the end, after your own code finishes...
