Hello,

What are people using for ad management these days? A long time ago I used phpAdsNew which seems to be called OpenX now. I'm generally happy using the ad_ templates for adsense code and other simple things. If you want to have a GUI web page for the banner management for more complicated ad systems what are the recommeneded vB addons or 3rd party software packages?

I use GABS, available for purchase at www.thevbgeek.com

Dan and I spent at least 6-8 combined hours trying to get that product working on a site.

I got one ad working but the rest would not display for some reason.

I'd rather not deal with GAB ever again. I don't charge enough for that headache.

Self-promotion! It's publically branded so it might not suit you, but it's free so you have nothing to lose except yet more time. It's completely different to GAB, so entirely open to preference or otherwise. Oh, and although it says Beta there are no issues at the moment I'm aware of.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
