Add-On Releases - Advertisement System V2.6 Aka Ad Management

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.

Yes, because you have to make template edits you can just edit the templates in the particular style!

I'm trying to upload this into v3.6.8 but I got an error when uploading. It tells me that is not compatible with my version. Any idea on how can I get it installed on 3.6.8?

Thank you!

[soundbarrierpro]

It's incompatible, that means it doesn't work with 3.6.8

Is there a way to the ads not display in the header in certain forums? There are a couple that I don't want ads in but I haven't seen anything in the instructions unless I missed it.

Anyone with a successful install on a 3.8 board?

[redlabour]

Works great with 3.8.

In the Header and footer settings there is this at the bottom

Do NOT display Header , Footer & Affliates advertisements to Usergroups:
IDs of the usergroups who will not see the Header , Footer & Affliates advertisements, separated by |

OK, i finally got this working... ALMOST.

Everything works fine, then when I click "autorefresh below navbar", the adds go away with an error sign. Any clue?

have you added multiple banner or ad code in the desired box seperated by | (thats Shift+\)? , remember if its Adsense code you will see an error at first for any thing up to 2 hours (they state 10 minutes but it can be longer) until it picks up the content of your site so it can deliver the ads!
