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.

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

if it was in admincp/ad management

Thanks
Hi,
Look for <phrase 1="$vboptions[bburl]">$vbphrase[adintegrate_remove_ads]</phrase> in the templates. You can move it where you want and replace the $vboptions[bburl] part with where you want it to link to.

To change the text, edit the phrase adintegrate_remove_ads with the phrase manager.

I appreciate its a little more unwiedly in some ways, but this way allows for different setups in different places and is also a little more efficient for your forum speed-wise.

That worked perfectly for me. I just went through and removed that part in all the templates and that solved that.

Can you please tell us in which Tables the old Ads are saved to get them back ??
I have attached the 3.14 version to the main post, uploading the older xml may restore the old settings.

Question

I had the old version (3.1) installed and I had gone through and put in several template edits that you instructed for the placement of ads. Can we remove those or do we still need them? I don't have the 3.1 instructions now so don't know off hand what templates you had us modify.

Template edits are done just the same in this version, so you can still make use of them if you want. Just make sure you don't use the new automatic template edits or they'll be added twice.

I've attached two files to this post, try overwriting them and see if that solves your problem.

vb_ad_management.php goes in your admincp directory.
vb_ad_management.xml is uploaded using your product manager, set overwrite to yes.

Big Bug--

When activated, nobody can login. You enter your login details and click on the submit button and it takes you to a blank page. You can't even login to the AdminCP. Now you can try loging into the AdminCP and then if you know a link in it get in the back way.

NOTE - this is with a perfectly untouched copyright and footer.
