Major Additions - vB Ad Management 4

vB Ad Management 4

Check the FAQ before requesting support!

What does it do?

Features include global settings, advertisements allowing template conditionals, ad sharing and ad revenue sharing, timed advertisements, preset popular ad locations and functions such as sponsors, additional custom ad locations, random and static advertisements and its all very easy to use. You can use it for ordinary ads like adsense, banner rotations, or any content at all as well as using it to manage ads outside your forum too.

You can read in more detail about these and other features in the manual, which also contains some helpful notes and instructions, as well as the installation and upgrade instructions



If you are using autoinsertion and were using vB Ad Management before version 4.00, you will need to remove your old template edits or advertisements will appear multiple times. Just reverse the old instructions below.

* Find <!-- post $post[postid] popup menu --> and paste $postbit_advertisement above it in your postbit & postbit_legacy templates.
* Paste $forumbit_advertisement at the bottom of your forumhome_forumbit_level1_post and forumhome_forumbit_level2_post templates.
* Paste $threadbit_advertisement at the bottom of your threadbit template.
* Paste $footer_advertisement at the top of your footer template.
* Find $spacer_close in your footer template and below it paste $rightcolumn_advertisement.
* Find &nbsp; in your header template and replace it with $header_advertisement.
* Find $spacer_open in your header template and below it paste $leftcolumn_advertisement.

No you did not. You did not Import the Language Product (Yes i agree - a Languagefile via Product is strange! )

Hi there,

I have installed this modification, but none of the ads ever show? Auto insertion or me placing the code in the templates, they don't show. I am using AdSense.

How do i remove the " Remove advertisements" Link

Wow - I'm having a complete nightmare trying to get things working properly, and wondered if anyone could help me - because I'm at the end of my know-how!

As I mentioned in a previous post, we tried to install a custom style to our forum in order to get things looking a bit more 'Christmasy', but where everything was working great before, when we installed the new style, vB Ad Management wouldn't show when we selected the new style, although it worked OK when we switched back to the original style.

In order to overcome this problem, we tried completely deleting vB Ad Management and the custom style, and starting from scratch.

We re-installed the new style, and told it the parent style was the one that worked already, so no problems there.

We then installed vB Ad Management again from scratch.

We now have two problems...

1. vB Ad Management STILL doesn't show in the new style!

2. We have four banner ads that should show on our header, and we've got it set to rotate to a new ad after ten seconds, but after ten seconds, instead of a new ad appearing, the active banner just disappears and nothing replaces it.

I've got a very basic understanding of vBulletin, so if you are able to offer me any help, instructions in 'idiot' language would be much appreciated.

1) When it refreshes a few times now and then there is no add.

I grabbed the code from the example in the back end. Can someone explain what could the problem be.

Basically all i want is for the add to pick randomly between a few banners. All members, all screens

2) how do i make the banners linkable (A link for each banner).
