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.

Changed it to separation using | instead of , in the next version.

Do you have any idea when the update will be?

[RedTyger]

If you need it urgently, open the plugin and do:

FIND:
explode(','

REPLACE WITH:
explode('|'

and then change your admin code to use | instead of ,

RedTyger...is there a way to exclude ads from certain forums in header/footer?

[RedTyger]

Change the header/footer_advertisement templates to

<if condition=in_array($forum[forumid], 1,2,3)">
$header/footer_adcode
</if>

Change 1,2,3 to the forums where you want the adverts shown. Be sure to the search the thread in future, this has been asked before.

[RedTyger]

Hey I have a question, I like how it puts the advertisements after the first post however is it possible to not have it in a postbit box or no?
