VB Banner Control 1.2 · **Released**: 07-15-2002

Hi,

with the allowance of Firefly I repost this hack. At first I want to mention that I used PPNs ads hack only for one file in the adminoptions as a template. He made this file so perfect that I looked how he solved the adminconfigurations file for his hack.
The rest is without viewing on other hacks coded by me.

This hack has the following features:

- allows you to create banners dynamicly
- you can view stats:
-> guestclicks ( how many not logged in guests clicked on the banner )
-> userclicks ( which user has clicked how often on which banner )
-> views ( how often is the banner viewed )
- control theses stats over an admin cp script which let you:
-> add new banners
-> edit banners
-> remove banners
-> view the stats
-> remove the stats
- NEW in 1.1: Useroverview:
-> you can give a user of your forum the possibility to view the stats via ACP
-> he can see the views, userclicks and guestclicks
- NEW in 1.2: Put Banners between categories
-> you can assign each category via phpmyadmin an banner which is under this category shown
-> therefor you've to split the categories, that you have space between them

For an example, you can have a view on www.kampfkunst-board.info. The 2 banners in the middle are created dynamicly by my scripts

Here in this post I add the hack, in the next post, the screenshots

ok I got it to work....will this hack allow for random/rotating banners?

-thanks

sorry no, for rotation there still exists a hack from PPN called ads management

Will this hack use a lot of additional queries????

Our site is HUGE (we have had almost 400 new registrations in the last 48 hours), and i don't wanna kill the server here....

it looks great though

Sorry for my late answer, cause last week I was in holidays

No, large Traffic isn't a problem. You have only a few more querys which won't be a problem for your board

You could make a test for watching and logging the querys

Just look in the view.php. There are only a few querys!

this may sound dumb but im lost on where the banner is supposed to show. I installed evyerthing but i dont see a banner anywhere.

KarateKid · #48 08-06-2002, 08:08 PM

did you place the banner code somewhere?

do you see maybe an empty default image window?

squid93087 · #49 08-07-2002, 04:00 AM

ok i got it now one more thing is there anyway this can become a rotating code?

KarateKid · #50 08-07-2002, 07:34 AM

no, for rotating you should have a view on PPNs ads management hack. My hack is only for counting the hits...

Do I need to have PHP my admin in order to use this?
