Frequently Asked Questions.

Q. Why do I need such a thing, you ask?

A. This has been asked for a few times, and was usually a template edit, so I decided to turn it into a product.

Q. Does it only have to be advertising?

A. No, you can put just about anything you want in there.

Q. How is this different from the vBulletin Advertising system?

A. Well if you choose to show the ad in the first post position in vBulletin, the ad will show up on all pages of the thread in the first post. With this way, it will only show up in the very first post of the thread. Also there is no ad location in vBulletin above the signature area for the last post in the thread, but with this system their is.

What does 'Marking As Installed' do ?

* It helps you to stay on top of updates - members who have installed modifications will be notified whenever new updates are available.

* For security issues - vbulletin.org will contact all members who have installed a modification whenever a security issue is brought to their attention.

* Marking a modification as installed also helps me know how many people are using my work, giving me extra incentive to provide more features and new modifications.

I appreciate the support!

is it not against google adsense tos ?

I don't see why it would be, it's the same thing as having it inside of a post.

This looks great. :up:

I saw some forums that show ads that way, and Google didn't stopped them from showing (and Google certainly knows where ads are showed).

Only thing you need to watch for is that you don't have more than three (3) ads on the same page.

On the other hand, if someone knows why this would violate AdSense TOS, please say so.

i researched this years ago and it was not against tos but I always add a sponsor description or title just to be safe.

And yeah, if using this one on first and last posts then that is 2 ads right there.. and you only get 3 per page so everyone should be aware of that.

ANy updates one the problem I found Ozzy?

[ozzy47]

I hope to have a update out tomorrow, I was waiting for your feedback, but somehow I missed your reply.

And as for the second post advert mod, that looks like what I am working on, but I think mine will be more customizable.

But that will be in another update, after I make sure you are happy with the current setup.

Yes I did reply a page back but like you said it got lost in other posts.
As i said this mod does work right apart from when a member doesn't have a Sig then it doesn't show

As for the second post ad thing, I've been using that other mod for a while, but if it would get more customized as a new one by you then I will check it out.
