Major Additions - vB Ad Management

This modification allows you to add advertisements to your vBulletin software. It's very easy to use, very quick and allows almost unlimited customisation. There is no restriction regarding the content you can use. Adsense, images, flash, plain text and you can use template conditionals and phrases as well. It will put anything, anywhere. Just about.

Features:
- Timed ads.
- Self-refreshing ads.
- Ad rotations.
- Ads using conditionals, phrases and templates.
- Ad sharing.
- Default ad blocks (typical ad block screenshot attached) for all the most popular locations plus another 25 custom blocks.
- Default ad blocks for some of the most popular alternative formats; columns, full-page, sponsors.
- Ads for distributed content (emails and feeds).
- Instant previews before publishing.
- No template edits necessary.
- Compatibility with external pages and software.
- Appearance blending to make your ads look like part of your vBulletin templates.
- Alter hyperlinks to include your referral codes.
- Further details in the manual.

For software-specific management (i.e. threads on a forum, comments on a blog) and/or ad (revenue) sharing you will additionally need the appropriate module.

Additional modules:
Forum
Blog

This modification is supported with a link back to my homepage in the footer. Unbranded is per vBulletin license to be used with, see here for details.

The ads don't show up on my forum page and only the right ad strip shows up on my cmps homepage. Can anyone help me figure out how to correct this issue?

Have you looked at bottom of list on the left? Settings are not in VBulletin options as other modifications but under Maintanance link bottom left.

Ads are not showing because you did not put code inside and did not activate banner (each one needs to be set on).

Thanks imedic, I actually had issues with another mod and everything was fine once I solved it.

Can anyone help me adjust my ad location a bit. As it is I can only get my ads to show up on the right side of my forums, and not on both the right and the left. I would like them to show up on both, and outside of the white background area on my site. I would like them to show up on both sides on the blue background. I would be forever grateful if someone could help me achieve this.

Wish somebody could VB4 this mod. This is much better the vBulletins inflexible crappy ad management system.

Does anybody know of any solutions paid or unpaid for vb4 that work as well as this?

How do I add a banner ad in email phrase?
I tried to place in the variables, but the code doesn't recognize the variable and I get a blank.

just installed. GREAT MOD, I've tried several before finding this, they all proved too hard for me to install or get working. This mod is simple and works great. Thanks for creating it.

Could anybody (please) tell me what / where these two locations are called out as?

I'd like to have banners in one of either location. Directly above or below the NAVBAR as shown in the image. Can't seem to find them in the rather long listing of possible locations.

(found it under navbar / below)
