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.

I guess I will have to install it first to understand what you are showing me. I believe you are saying I will have to use this for each banner so if I have 5 banners on each side of a template I will have to source banner1a, banner2a etc or am I mistaken? Would banner1a be for all the banners in rotation in that spot?

Sorry if I am so confusing here. I can fairly easily just use php to get banners rotating but I am looking for a modification that will allow my clients to easily use the control panel to add there banners..

Honestly I would never suggest having more than one banner slow in any one template and especially in the header template but I cannot make these choices for people. With that said, I need a banner script that can easily allow me to place multiple banners spaces in a single template wikthout having to code in each new banner...

Thanks alot..

[Simon Lloyd]

Ooops yes there are 5!, each of those has the radio button for autorefresh in them, well at least on ver 3.7.3 they do!. perhaps you should PM Karim004, he does give great support and can do a pro install for you.

hi, got to say great add-on but theres one thing thats stopping me from enabling it.

When i add my advertisement codes for the header, it shows all right, but behind the banner is a white square and i was just wondering how i could make the width of it smaller to fit the size of my banners, or even still change it to black as i have a black forum.

thanks

To upgrade just re-import the file or do a fresh install?
