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.

I have

vB Ad Management 3.14 Forum-wide advertisement management

And the Admin CP controls are only in Vbulletin Options

Everything appears to be working great

[DieselMinded]

before this ends up in the graveyard can someone pm me how to remove his link from my footer

[DieselMinded]

Have you added your ads via the vbulletin options ?

bottom of nav bar

PHP Code:

<table border="0" width="950" height="60">
    <tr>
        <td height="60" width="475" align="left">$header_advertisement</td>
        <td height="60" width="475" align="left">$footer_advertisement</td>
    </tr>
</table> 


Then Vb options and add your Ads to Header and footer

I upgraded my vbulletin to the latest version... and still this mod is not showing up on my pages. It shows up in the admin control panel and even let's me preview the ad but then nothing on my forums. I have it enabled. Maybe my coding is wrong? Here is what I put in the left hand column for coding:

"<table width="64" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="5">
<tr>
<td><a href="http://www.funfelt.com/christina.html" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.funfelt.com/images/102x172-story-time-felts.jpg"Christina ~ Story Time Felts"></a></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><a href="http://www.theparentpack.org" target="_blank"><img src="http://sonoma.ca.theparentpack.org/Ads/ppkblue.jpg"The Parent Pack"></a></td>
</tr>
</table>"

Am I missing something? Please help!

Awesome! That did it. It's up and running just fine now.

[Christinichka]

I still need help, please. I am baffled as to what to do to get this working for me.

[PenPusher1000]

Does this work for 3.7.0 100% or is it best to wait for an official 3.7.x release?

Is there an ETA for such a release.

Many thanks

The developer has not been online since december 2007 so I think it is safe to assume the developer has abandoned this mod.

Even though I will loose some nice features and have to manually exclude usergroups I won't display ads for I am removing this mod and will use the default ad templates that 3.7.0 comes with.
