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.

Hello!

I have a problem with the announcement of an advertising block.

Under Threadbit shared random advertisement - Display with every Xth thread is adjusted: 1|13|25. At the position 13 and 25 the advertising block is however not indicated (see picture). However the google code is present in the source code opinion at position 13 and 25 (see http://forum.3dmaxforum.net/3ds-max/...x-allgemeines/ ). With the posts there is not this problem.

Can help their me?

Thanks and sorry for my bad english !

That really is bizarre, the code should not even run when the plugin is off.

What happens if you just use ordinary text....like "Hello" for your adcode instead of adsense. Does it still only show once?

how you doing...i tried installing this and i followed all the directions you have listed above...i get this message at the top of my forum now and no ads show up what so ever

[RedTyger]

Sounds like the cache_templates file is missing or corrupted. Try uploading it again, making sure it's in the correct folder with all the other files.

try importing the vb_ad_management_313 XML doc again?

am i suppose to upload the files in the "includes" folder anywhere? I am guessing i am but im not sure where, maybe i missed something....?

sorry

[RedTyger]

Yes, they go in a new folder called "vb_ad_management" which goes in the existing includes folder of your forum.

[2 FN LOW]

thank you for that...I will try that out now and see what happens and let you know if i work it out

[2 FN LOW]

I have worked it out so far...Thank you very much and i think this will be the most useful mod on my forum...If i have any more questions i will be sure to ask, thanks for the support.
