- Import product-ain_adsens.xml file (as product): AdminCP > Plugin System > Manage Products > [Add/Import Product] (Allow overwrite if you are upgardeing)


How to use it:

1. after installation/upgrade go to your forum admin control panel (main page) and check out if your publisherid is empty or not. if it is, ads will not work until you update it. please visit ads setup options page to update it.
2. in ads setup options, click on the link in the second option. you will be redirected to ads units system to ad your ads. from there you can delete, update or preview your adsense codes. if you planning to use adsense share it's better to add custom adsense unit.
3. any ads already in your list, you can use it in any template. if your ad unit id is 5 and you want to display it in header template. you can go to header then add this code:
   PHP Code:

   $ain_adsense[5] 

   this in case you want to do it by yourself.
4. in case you want to display your ads by the avilable option, go to Display options then click on the link you want to edit options in it. for example, you want to mange your adsense ads in forum home page. after you enterd the page, you have to choose locations where you want to show your ads. then on each location you choosed there are place to put ad id you preferd to that location. finally save and enjoy
5. if you want to exclude users, usergroups, forums or ips you can do it from main options. you will need to take a look on options there.
6. adsense share is completely optional, if you want to enable sharing take a look on Adsense Share options and if you still have questions I will be here to help if possible.

Excellent mod! Keep up the good work. I have a few suggestions for future development.

1. Allow for finer usergroup permissions, preferably unique display rights per ad. I like to show the top ad (under navbar) to guests only.

2. Ability to add multiple custom code(s) per ad location, since Google only allows 3 ads per page we are limited to use only a fraction of the available locations. If we can rotate between custom code and Adsense we can deliver our content focused ads we sell through normal advertisement offerings, and not go over the three ad limit. Example, I rotate between ads delivered by OpenX and Adsense in posts.

3. Ability to define the display post ad after every x post. For instance, we could enter 1,15,30,45,60. Then it would display an ad after that post #.

Much of these features are available in karim004's Ad Management - https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=179083

Thanks!!

Hi Al3bed,

I was using you 4,0 mod on my forum using vb 3.7.4 with patch level 1 and it was working fantastic. Then I upgraded the forum to 3.8.2. Once I upgraded the forum, I tried to upgrade your Mod to the 6.0 version and over right it. Now I am having a couple of problems trying to get everything to work right again, and can use your help.

Can you please tell me how to fix the way these ads are showing?

- 468x60 is showing like --> "; google_ad_width = 468; google_ad_height = 15; //-->
-Text links ads are showing like --> "; google_ad_width = 468; google_ad_height = 15; //-->

Most of the ads display like this so ...

Plus, this may sound a little stupid, but where can I get the table ID from for the revenue sharing? Edited - Got this part figured out

Also, did I have to enter the IDs for the forums I want displayed in the main opions sections for these ads to show properly?

Thanks - any help would be appreciated ...

Mary

[abdobasha2004]

the revenue share is allowed only for 2 ad blocks on show thread !!
and not allowed in adsense inside posts
so if i allow rev. share together with adsense inside post the member pub-id appear in 2 blocks and mine appear on inside post

Question, does anyone know if the 6.0 version of this Mod can be reverted back to the 5.2 if I re upload the product xml file in the admincp?

That 6.0 version isn't working on VB 3.82, and I'd rather not go thru the hassle of uninstalling the product and setting it all back up.

Thanks!

Hey Al3bed,

Never mind! I got someone whi fixed everything up by stripping out the old code and only entering the #s code in the ad setup boxes.

Appriceate the mod a lot.

Database Error Occurs, if Threads are merged without leaving redirect. If you try to access old urls which has been merged with new thread, you will see error.

The error will appear only if revenue sharing is enabled.
