Features include global settings, advertisements allowing template conditionals, ad sharing and ad revenue sharing, timed advertisements, preset popular ad locations and functions such as sponsors, additional custom ad locations, random and static advertisements and its all very easy to use. You can use it for ordinary ads like adsense, banner rotations, or any content at all as well as using it to manage ads outside your forum too.
If you are using autoinsertion and were using vB Ad Management before version 4.00, you will need to remove your old template edits or advertisements will appear multiple times. Just reverse the old instructions below.
Quote:
* Find <!-- post $post[postid] popup menu --> and paste $postbit_advertisement above it in your postbit & postbit_legacy templates.
* Paste $forumbit_advertisement at the bottom of your forumhome_forumbit_level1_post and forumhome_forumbit_level2_post templates.
* Paste $threadbit_advertisement at the bottom of your threadbit template.
* Paste $footer_advertisement at the top of your footer template.
* Find $spacer_close in your footer template and below it paste $rightcolumn_advertisement.
* Find in your header template and replace it with $header_advertisement.
* Find $spacer_open in your header template and below it paste $leftcolumn_advertisement.

I have one very important question. How can I change the color of my ads templates? I would like to have a different background color and title header.
Someone has been giving your dodgy code...img tags should be closed with a slash, like this: <img stuff goes here />. You should include the space before the slash as well. & characters should be written as & as well, but I can't imagine it making a difference.
That would be Linkshare. I guess I'll write and let them know. I don't know enough html to be able to recognize what was wrong - although now that you point it out it seems perfectly obvious. I've learned a lot in the few months I've been running my forum! Thanks for the info. I'll correct them.

This is GREAT news! I use the Navbar thing you wrote for me, and I love the way it looks - so neat - but I'd like it to be completely controllable separate from header/footer. That way I could put adsense in the footer and set places it isn't allowed, while still having the navbar display everywhere.
No offense but I thought this may help better your software. I've been working on this problem over the past 2 days over many frustrating hours (thought it was a IE and Mozilla compatibility problem because changes in login and logout and then viruses) and found that the root of it was from this vb Ad management. Here is the thread explaining the problem of sorts:
This extra <table><tr><td> statement pops in before the <!-- open content container --> when a member logs in. This has caused me a lot of problems because as this statement pops in, I don't have a </td></tr></table> at the end to close this table, so my whole design layout gets thrown off.
If I add this extra </td></tr></table> to the bottom, everything clears up - except for when I log out, then the forum tables and layout gets thrown off yet again. So your stuck with a situation of having the forum layout work correctly when your either logged in or logged out - not both.
I guess this is about the best I can explain it, I hope this helps out your software.
Great mod! it's working very well with my VB 3.6.5.
but I still need to insert ads between the lines of posts or PMs not in a separate block below each post.
