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.

Hey,

Got a pretty bad problem with this. I copied a code into Footer adcode spot and I guess it was a bad code that closed a /form without opening one and messed up the rest of the page after the spot where you enter the code. I can even delete that code because I can no longer see the save button below it, so cant save changes. Tried to find the template where that code is saved in but it does not seem to be in any of the templates. Any ideas?

I'm trying to get the ads to show on the nav bar but for some reason, they're not. I went to this location in Admin: Style Template > Navigation/Breadcrumb Templates > Navbar

I then put in '$navbar_advertisement' at the top of the Navbar section. Did I do this correctly? No ads are showing at all. Below this is my code for the Nav section where I listed my images and url's.

Please advise on how to fix this.

$navbar_advertisement

<!-- breadcrumb -->
<div id="navbar-row">
<if condition="is_array($navbits)">
	<div class="navbar navbar-top"><a href="$vboptions[forumhome].php$session[sessionurl_q]" accesskey="1">$vboptions[bbtitle]</a> $navbits[breadcrumb]
	 &raquo; <strong>$navbits[lastelement]</strong></div>
<else />
	<div class="navbar navbar-top"><a href="$vboptions[forumhome].php$session[sessionurl_q]" accesskey="1">$vboptions[bbtitle]</a></div>
</if>
</div>
<br class="spacer8" />
<!-- / breadcrumb -->

<!-- pm notification -->
<if condition="THIS_SCRIPT != 'private' && $show['member'] && $show['pmstats'] && $vbulletin->userinfo['pmunread']">
<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center">
<tbody>
	<tr>
		<td class="panelsurround" align="center">

				<phrase 1="$vbphrase[unread_x_nav_compiled]" 2="$vbphrase[total_x_nav_compiled]" 3="$session[sessionurl_q]">$vbphrase[private_messages_nav]</phrase>
			</div>
		</div>

	</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
