Geek Advertising Banner system RC1 Details »» | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
HowdA All.
From the makers of Hydrogen comes the latest mack - GAB (Geek Advertising Banners). This has come about by needing an advertising system that no other hack seemed to totally fulfill. Personally - I really didnt want to burden myself with supporting another hack - but I felt it was significantly better than other hack systems out there so I thought many would be able to benefit from it. Whats so freaking cool about it? 1- use flash, normal, text based (google adsense) or rotating banners 2- Decide which scripts run the banners 3- Define which forums run the banners 4- define which usergroups can turn off the banners 5- Make ads stop at x amount of hits 6- Make ads stop at x amount of views 7- Make ads start/stop at certain times 8- track views and/or hits 9- Wipes your bum Why am I releasing this now? It seems to be hip and trendy to release Banner hacks. In all reality - this has been a very long work in progress that is finally rounding the finsihing stages. The current RC pacakge is considered complete except for the show stats segment (its recording stats, but you cant browse them easily yet). LIke with any hack (especially a Beta) back up you DB and files needing change (global.php,admincp/index.php). Known issues:
For users of GAB Beta 2, uninstall it and then install this version. In all reality, you could just revert the file changes and delete the GAB_ tables from yur DB (heck, you dont even need to do that). To upgrade from RC1.5 to RC1.6, just replace existing files with the latest from the downloaded package and run the template portion of the installer (you can skip the rest of the install steps). You may have to revert your GUSH_main and GUSH_ad_row Donations I have never asked for donations for any of the macks I have done - however since I have spent well over 60 hours coding this - I thought I would stick my neck out there. If you like my mack, it brings you some money and you want to keep my fridge stocked with beer and Cheetos, then feel free to drop some cash in my paypal account: geek@thenailgeek.com If youre having difficulty keeping beer in the fridge yourself - fill yours before you fill mine. If you think the mack sucks, or youre just a tight git then please dont bother nJoy Show Your Support

Luc, you need to add the scriptnames in the scripts section. ie vbacmps is vba_index (if I remember right) To get the scriptname, open up the PHP page... its toward the top. HTHs |

What ver of Vbull is this ment for? I'm over here trying to install it with no luck. Everytime I run the install, I just get a blank screen. The folders have the right permissions, and the files are in the correct areas. Any ideas?
