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.

Got it installed (before it was pulled) and working but a few questions:

- The option for removing sponsored ads - seems to have vanished from the control panel as to where we can set the disablement url. It now seems to be defaulting to registering on site link?

- On the style I use the auto-add templtes appear not to be working so I've added back in the style template edits from 3.14 and these seem to be working well.

The first problem is stopping me going live....

Does this script have any problems with logging in to admin, and Thread Options/Mod Tools, ever since i installed it, I get blank screen on admin, then i have to go back to admincp
then admincp loads, and thread/mod tools come up with a blank screen when i try a mod tools...

Just curious, or if i need to look at something else as being the problem.

Hello! I have this mod installed on nearly all of my forum communities. I am trying to make the post ads float to the right so that all post text is wrapped around it on the left. But no matter how I put the float code in or where I put it, it just won't work. I don't understand it. I must be over looking something simple. Does anyone know where to place the float code and how to best write it?

For now, I put the float code in postbit template, wrapped around the postbit_advertisement variable, but it doesn't work...

<div id="post_message_$post[postid]">
  $post[message]
  <!-- / message -->
  <div style="display:block;float:right;margin: 5px 5px 5px 5px;">
   $postbit_advertisement</div>
   </div>

Does anyone know how to make this work with this mod? Thanks!

Red,

I have confirmed that your scipt has something to do with admincp and the mod tools not permforming properly.. someone gave me the idea to disable the script, and everything works just fine, when the ad management is on, then those items do not work.

[edgeyveggie]

I need this agh! :erm:

Fer cripes sake, leave it alone, will ya? Red will upload the fixed version just as soon as he can. Anyone who takes the time to see the level of support he has given this modification can see he won't be lallygaggin'. But your juvenile gimme-gimme posts are a pain in the ass for those of us who subscribe to this thread. Shut up and be patient already.

Yeah, give the guy time to fix all the bugs. It's better to wait more and have an error free mod , than to rush it out and have tons of bugs.
