Hey quick question, I am still working on installing it. I have it in installed correctly, but it appears that I am the only person able to see the ads. I have spoken to several people and they do not see any ads. Any susgestions?
Well it looks like I'm down to the Backup mod, vBlogetin or the SEO sitemap plugin that's possibly causing the copyright issue. Does anybody else have any of those mods & is having the duplicate copyright issue?
But it haven't one useful things like parsing some variable into ad code of banner.
for example:
"Hello, $username, please take a look at........"
or parse some other global vars.
I make a plugin like to get ID
sampleforum.com/index.php?id=advertid
I add a global var $advertid and how can I use it in my ad code to make a banner with $advertid ?
I have it working without any issues on 3.6.6. I do have a question though.
I want an ad inbetween threads within a specific forum. Let's say I want the ad after the second thread. How do I tweak the code to have the engine ignore sticky topics when it is counting up topics? I have my sticky threads in a separate table above the normal threads and I do not want the ad to show in the sticky thread area. Any suggestions?
Anyone have any thoughts on this request? Basically, I don't want the ad engine to count threads that are sticky when it is trying to figure out where to insert an ad.
