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.

Oh yeah. I forgot about that one. I won't be setting that up.

Here's anothor few questions.

1. Should I make it not viewable for myself since I'm the administrator?
2. At the bottom of each adsense banner it says "Remove Advertisments" but then it is a link going to the registration page of the Vbulletin? What's up with that?

This won't seem to install correctly on vB 3.7 RC3.

I install it, but it never shows up in the admin CP menus (I have hard refreshed and cleared my cache as well.). And when I got to the actual link vb_ad_management.php, it is just blank.

I do NOT have a branding free version of vB. Ideas?

I'm on a roll with setting this VB Ad thingy. Hopfully this is my last question.

Originally my forum is at a 90% Table margin which is good, once I added the Left Column ad banner the forum squished to the right. Actually it looks great until I made one change. I made it so that the ads are hidden to me(as the admin) but now the margin for me is at full and probably everyone else it isn't. I wouldn't mind actually seeing the forum the way that others see it. How can I set it up like that?

it s working on vb 3.7 RC3 just unistall and import the vb_ad_management package Allow Overwrite = NO
after that import the vb_ad_management_english package{{ in languages folder }} Allow Overwrite = NO
if you dont import vb_ad_management_english you cant see the ad management menu in your admincp

Does this allow the ability for people to pay for advertisements to run on the site? and then accept / decline them etc?
