Mini Mods - Adsense Inside the Post

This little template modification allows you to put an Ad inside the post with Text wrapped around the Ad.

See Screenshot.

In postbit template replace

 <!-- message -->
  <div id="post_message_$post[postid]">$post[message]</div>
   <!-- / message -->

With

        <!-- message -->
<if condition="(($post[postcount] % $vboptions[maxposts] == 1)) and ($show['guest'])">
<span style="margin: 2px; float: right; width: 301px; height: 251px;">
        ADSENSE CODE HERE
</span>
</if>
    <div id="post_message_$post[postid]">$post[message]</div>
              <!-- / message -->

• you will have to replace ADSENSE CODE HERE with the actual code.
• The code is for 300 * 250 Medium Rectangle Format,Edit width & height parameters if you want to use any other format.
• Ad is shown on the first and last post (modify if you want)
• Ad is shown to guests Only ( remove "and ($show['guest'])" to show to all)

Version History:
v 1.0.1 :Ads displayed after the first post on every page (instead of just the first page)

Tip: To remove quote button for guests.
Replace

<if condition="$post['replylink']

with

<if condition="$post['replylink'] AND $show['member']">

It didn't work to my forum. (version 3.6.8)

Can anyone work on 3.6.8?

Yes, it works fine for me in 3.6.8. Thanks unitedpunjab!

Just a question. I want to show AdSense to all my subforums and exclude one (id=XX). I have tried to do it with the following lines:

PHP Code:

<if condition="(($post[postcount] % $vboptions[maxposts] == 1)) and ($show['guest'])">
<if condition="!in_array($forumid, array(XX))">
<span style="margin: 2px; float: left; width: 301px; height: 251px;">
ADSENSE CODE HERE
</span>
</if>
</if> 


But don't work, Ads continues being impressed on all subforums. Any ideas?

Thank you!

Just a tidbit: After a 1-on-1 phone discussion Google Adsense, I've learned that they are pushing this medium rectangle-in-first-post more than anything - according to them with the forum sites they've worked with so far it results in a huge rev boost, as the medium rectangle brings in the most site-targeted ads... Whether or not your forum regulars will put up with it, that's a different story. But he convinced me to give it a try.

Ive noticed that in the last post display of the ads, the buttons are not staying in the bottom right of the post.

Is there anyway to fix this? They seem to move left and up to the very bottom of the message.

Is there a way this mod can be 'forum specific'?

I'd only like to use it in one of my forums.

Thanks! (great mod)

ETA
I just saw the post quoted below. It articulates, beautifully, why I need to restrict this to one forum

There were also many justification issues (such as overlap noted above) in many posts.

Nice idea, though.

I'd only like to use it in only one of the forums on my board.

Anyone???

How to show ad only after first post per page?
not so quite simple. Becouse when i use your script it shows after first post on every page if the page has default post count. Eg. if the page has 20 posts by default it show only after first post. But if user has changed that he want to show 40 post per page, the ad shows after 1 post and after 20 post, if the thread has more than 20 posts. How to fix it ?
