What I would like to see added to this mod is the ability to turn off only adverts.

Let me explain....

I use this mod to not only display adverts but also, at the top of the right column, I use it to show links to important parts of the site and the latest X posts in the forums. Then below that I have the adverts.

Since I cannot turn off just a part of the right column I have to use a second mod (Ultimate Side Columns) in a way that displays the links etc but no adverts and switch between the two depending on which usergroup a visitor is in.

If this mod could be changed in such a way as to use blocks for the side columns that can be turned off individually per usergroup it would save me from having to use a bunch of tricks trying to make use of two mods for the same area of the page.

Something like:

Block #1:

Usergroups to NOT display to; (text box for usergroup numbers)
Usergroups to display to; (text box for usergroup numbers)

Then a box to input code to display for these groups.

Block #2:

Usergroups to NOT display to; (text box for usergroup numbers)
Usergroups to display to; (text box for usergroup numbers)

Then a box to input code to display for these groups.

Block #3:

Usergroups to NOT display to; (text box for usergroup numbers)
Usergroups to display to; (text box for usergroup numbers)

Then a box to input code to display for these groups.


etc etc

This way I can have block #1 with the links and other stuff and Block #2 will be code for the adverts and they can be turned off for certain groups. It would allow me to keep my links but turn off the adverts and keep me from having to jury-rig the forums to get what I'm needing.

You can see how I am using it here: http://www.criticalreactor.com/forums/index.php

What do you think?
