Major Additions - vB Ad Management 4

vB Ad Management 4

Check the FAQ before requesting support!

What does it do?

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.

You can read in more detail about these and other features in the manual, which also contains some helpful notes and instructions, as well as the installation and upgrade instructions



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.

* 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 &nbsp; in your header template and replace it with $header_advertisement.
* Find $spacer_open in your header template and below it paste $leftcolumn_advertisement.

its simply not working
i configured it all
is this because im using vbseo and the vbseo style??
if so, how would i fix it?

The "Warning:" errors are because the upload files have not been uploaded correctly in some way. Check that they are in the correct location on your server before trying to use the modification.

xcingix double check your settings, the modification works fine with vB SEO.

Please look at my screen-shots.

You linked to the same size images as your thumbnails. How 'bout something we can actually see?

Voila, for my own reference. 9/10 times just removing the /thumbs/ part of the URL will do the trick.

Edit: The problem appears to be that you have all postbit advertisements turned off. In the postbit options section are options to turn them on for announcements, private messages and posts. Pick one.

Please review my attachments.
I have tried 1,2 and 3 and they still don't work.
Can i give u admin access or something?

[RedTyger]

You are definitely using postbit_legacy on your forum? Your settings all look correct (including 3).

Unfortunately now there are so many users I can no longer personally check people's forums to help. Victim of its own success.
