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.

I have a question on my template for the directions on the header part there is no &nbsp where would i put it on this code:

<!-- logo -->

<a name="top"></a>
<table border="0" width="$stylevar[outertablewidth]" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" align="center">
<tr>
<td align="left"><a href="$vboptions[forumhome].php$session[sessionurl_q]"><img src="$stylevar[titleimage]" border="0" alt="$vboptions[bbtitle]" /></a></td>

</tr>
</table>

<!-- /logo -->
$header_advertisement

<!-- content table -->
$spacer_open
$leftcolumn_advertisement
$_phpinclude_output

hitboy, it says you've turned off Private Messages or you're not permitted to receive them, your reply is here.

Hi there,

For everyone to view the ads, just leave the Usergroup and UserID settings all blank.

Forumbit/threadbit ads are where ads appear with listings of threads/forums. If you see this attachment:
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/attachmen...5&d=1164060335
the bottom Bart Simpson image is set as a threadbit ad at position 2. Forumbit ads work the same way, but you set by forumid, not position.

Do you have a custom theme? If so, it may be causing problems with column positioning. I'll need to take a look at your homepage.

i thought i did everything right, but it seems like the "left/right side" isnt showing up for me, i tried everything, any step that i forgot?

i did add the $leftcolumn_advertisement in header
but just cant find anything

thanks

[RedTyger]

You have included your own usergroup in the Enable section of the settings, yes? Or left it blank? I'd double check all your settings.

Using | could impact users using OpenAds and keywords. I ended up using ;; as the delineator, since that isn't a likely combination in javascript,php, or OpenAds.

Ok no problem, in that case could you PM me with an Admin username and password and I'll take a look myself see if I can't see what's wrong.

Man I feel foolish for not looking there, thanks for the help and a great mod!
