Advertisement System V2.6 Aka Ad Management · **Released**: 05-12-2008

Many forums are using the Ad management system, however the coder has stopped supporting the script. Therefore I have decided to release this modification. I will give support to those who need it and continue to make updates to the system.

====>> Live Demo
The Advertisement System was designed with the intent that anyone with any level of experience could use the system. It is easy to install and once installed, the templates are easy to use on a site. The advertisement system has several features that sites will enjoy such as it can be used on versions 3.6.x as well as 3.7.x. The ads can be placed in the following areas: header , footer , below whats going on, below the navbar , postbit , postbit legacy, pms, announcement, archive, left & right column in forum home , left column in member info and full page , threadbit , as well as forumbit. Also, the ability to not display advertisement on certain pages such as login, registration & the search page. This system allows you to personalize the system to better suit their needs such as setting permissions like ads after first post on a page, ads after last post on a page, ads after X post on a page, and ads every X posts on a thread. You may also display ads by forum ID, as well as customize the full page for your site. The system comes with a feature for auto refresh ads as well as Google analytics. Besides the features,there is constant support given to those who need it and of course, updates are made to the system in order to better serve the sites using the system.

No it didn't. I think you're confused because default vb now has ad code built in at most (or all) of the same places.

I have no idea why ad mods don't use the new hooks so we can dispense with the template edits. Presumably just because they're trying to maintain backward compatibility. But I don't know why they can't just tell people with older vb's to edit templates in the instructions.

go to admincp , style manager , your style , template header and change :

Code:

<td align="$stylevar[left]"><a href="$vboptions[forumhome].php$session[sessionurl_q]"><img src="$stylevar[titleimage]" border="0" alt="$vboptions[bbtitle]" /></a></td>
	<td align="$stylevar[right]" id="header_right_cell">
		<if condition="$ad_location['ad_header_logo']">$ad_location[ad_header_logo]<else />&nbsp;</if>
	</td>

with

Code:

<td align="$stylevar[left]"><a href="$vboptions[forumhome].php$session[sessionurl_q]"><img src="$stylevar[titleimage]" border="0" alt="$vboptions[bbtitle]" /></a></td>
	<td align="$stylevar[right]">$ad_headerEnd
<td align="$stylevar[right]" id="header_right_cell">
		
<if condition="$ad_location['ad_header_logo']">$ad_location[ad_header_logo]<else />&nbsp;</if>
	</td>

to add your banners go to admincp , vbulletin options , Advertisement System (Header & Footer) , yes to Enable header advertisements in the main forum , (( yes to Enable header advertisements in the archives )) , and add your adcode

Hello mates,

I just installed this mod and i was trying to solve my header banner not showing problem, when i suddenlly noticed that in the further end of my footer this message is been shown:

I had a bad feeling about that and started to seek in every footer codes what should it be. When nothing else could solve it, i just had an idea, lets see whats in the Branden oficial website.

So i clicked in his footer credits and got redirected into his website [momsasone] when i just saw a cute google adsense just below his credits!!!!!!!!!!

What i really want to ask is: Is Branden really trying to explore everyone with that subliminar code? If yes, it is really sad, becouse he should've set in the google adsense config every website in the internet to show his ads without saying that it is a really unpolite action.
If no, and even if yes, i would like to know how to get rid off of that error message, becouse i couldnt find that "intruse" code in the Advertisement System templates.

Is anyone there able to help me?

This is my footer code so anyone may check it out:

before i relase any new version (( version 2.6 )) i have to install it in my website for 3 weeks and test the new features (( for version 2.6 track link & stats )) thats why i have to use all adcodes : adsense , simple banners , other scripts exp: ttz media ........... so whats the problem it s a free script if you dont want the copyrith send me a pm !

what i can see you are using the auto refresh :
* make sure you uploaded the 4 php files in your forum folder
* go to admincp , style manager , your style , templates : ad_headerEnd , ad_navbarBelow , ad_footerEnd

add the full link to the autorefresh files:

Code:

http://www.yourforumlink/autorefresh_header.php

Code:

http://www.yourforumlink/autorefresh_navbar.php

Code:

http://www.yourforumlink/autorefresh_footer.php

Code:

Unable to add cookies, header already sent.
File: \forum\autorefresh_header.php
Line: 1

Plus it is showing only for logged-in users.
I saw another guy having the same issue and you supported him by PM.
Could you forward it for me?

Thank you for your support.
