Ok then... reinstalled.

I do hope you will lower the minimum payout. I could see it being that high if you were serving more paid ads, but it appears the majority are not paid ads and we would love to be paid for the paid ads that we have served.

That might get more people to install as well.

good idea, but is this worthwhile in terms of revenue ? or are you just promoting them like - for free (0.1$ per 1000 solves?)

I've been earning very decently with this. It's a super way to add a bit more income...as long as you have the traffic.

Version 1.0.4 of the mod is now available.

I just implemented the mod recently. It's working fine except I just noticed on a CMS comment page, when the Verizon FIOS ad shows up, the text box for the comment is non-functional. Other ads seem ok. Is this a known issue?

Edit - I found the place to open a ticket on the Solve Media support site.

Thanks for the update! That makes much more sense
