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.

You are welcome.

Yes I uninstalled the old version as directed in the instructions

Superb RT that conditional is working perfectly. All sweet now apart from two glitches:

1) The data for $sponsors_advertisement is not appearing on the live pages even though it previews perfectly.

2) If I have the auto-refresh turned on for the header and left hand column every few changes the header (landscape advert) is refreshed with the LH column advert which is a skyscraper - which can look awful. Due to this I've had to turn rotation off.

I followed all instructions, I uploaded all the files i the correct spot, I uploaded both XML files. When I click an option in the ACP, it says: "No file specified". I have never used vB Ad Management before...am I missing something?

These 2 options aren't working:

Display advertisement after first post on a page?
Choose Yes to have advertisements display after the first post on every page.
Yes No
Display advertisement after last post on a page?
Choose Yes to have advertisements display after the last post on every page.

This option will not work on search pages.
Yes No

On my site the ads are only appearing on the first page of each thread, not every page.
