About this hack:
Advanced Ads for famous Google adsense program (for the program, click here) are now very high-class show in all pages of your forum, many options to offer more than a way of advertising in all pages. this product contains group of main features:

• Google adsense Manager: system to add, edit and display adsense in your vbulletin forum
• adsense revenue share: share with admins, friends or users
• rotate ads: rotate adsense with other ads

why this is better than "Google AdSense Integration" feature:
Google AdSense Integration have only specific packages. And these packages have no options.



but let's take a look on Advanced Google AdSense features

Screenshots:
First: admincp options

Second: google adsense manager

Third: display options pages

Install/upgrade the product:
- upload file cpnav_ain_adsens.xml inside includes\xml (replace it if you are upgrading from 6.0)
- Import product-ain_adsens.xml file (as product): AdminCP > Plugin System > Manage Products > [Add/Import Product] (Allow overwrite if you are upgardeing)


How to use it:

1. after installation/upgrade go to your forum admin control panel (main page) and check out if your publisherid is empty or not. if it is, ads will not work until you update it. please visit ads setup options page to update it.
2. in ads setup options, click on the link in the second option. you will be redirected to ads units system to ad your ads. from there you can delete, update or preview your adsense codes. if you planning to use adsense share it's better to add custom adsense unit.
3. any ads already in your list, you can use it in any template. if your ad unit id is 5 and you want to display it in header template. you can go to header then add this code:
   PHP Code:

   $ain_adsense[5] 

   this in case you want to do it by yourself.
4. in case you want to display your ads by the avilable option, go to Display options then click on the link you want to edit options in it. for example, you want to mange your adsense ads in forum home page. after you enterd the page, you have to choose locations where you want to show your ads. then on each location you choosed there are place to put ad id you preferd to that location. finally save and enjoy
5. if you want to exclude users, usergroups, forums or ips you can do it from main options. you will need to take a look on options there.
6. adsense share is completely optional, if you want to enable sharing take a look on Adsense Share options and if you still have questions I will be here to help if possible.

Installing now.

Thanks,

How can I place an add in the footer ? Plus I'd have to disable one of the others to only have 3, correct ?

Thanks,

[al3bed]

I would like to thank Ogmuk, ArnyVee, Zilvia and all other who participate for their suggestions

Is that the way it does (or can) work?

with v7.0 all ads in showthread page will be changed.. so choose where you want to put them by yourself or choose them from avialable options offered by this mod

<script type="text/javascript">
sas_pageid='9614/72079'; // P?gina : RAZORMAN/foro
sas_formatid=3854; // Formato : 300x250 300x250
sas_target=''+wlrcmd; // Targeting
SmartAdServer(sas_pageid,sas_formatid,sas_target);
</script>

fmntprsv, I guess this will not work in that location even with rotate option

3. Ability to define the display post ad after every x post

1. you can do it by yourself with v7.0 if you want a table or a div or a specific condition for your ad, you can do it. for example ads for guests only: we will put in navbar:

PHP Code:

<if condition="!$show['member']">$ain_adsense[xx]</if> 


where xx is the id of your ad

2. you can add million custom code with 7.0 but it's will need your effort to change the id every time you need to change it.

3. I think this is somehow hard to do it right now, because this will need option for each thread (may you want to put ad under the 10th post in thread 124 but you don't in thread 154)

good to read that I think v6.0 was a buggy version but it's was not very bad
just you need to know how it's work and I'm sorry for not be here to help you that day

The error will appear only if revenue sharing is enabled.

I hope you can try it with v7.0 if it's still exist or not . thanks for reporting this

[al3bed]

Hi!
I got some error like apnifry! If a thread doesnt exist:
Datenbankfehler in vBulletin 3.8.2:
Invalid SQL:
SELECT COUNT(postid) AS posts FROM post WHERE userid =;

I guess I just know the problem .. I fixing it now

Problem solved, I was entering the name of the new user profile field instead of the field number.

you will not need to do it by yourself any more with v7.0

hi, this mod is for google adsense only but if you want to rotate adsnese with other? yes you can up to 2 or 3 .. search for similar adsense program you will find too much there but as my experince Adbrite is the best alternative.

I found an incompatibility with another Mod called "Video-Directory Remixed"

you mean ads not shown in vedio.php page? if so, then sure they will not showed there because that mod use different pages that forum sections. but how about try the new version 7.0 to add variables ad in template that will show them is Video-Directory Remixed. try it and let me know if it's work or not. thank you

oh good you solve it for yourself

yes there are no control for rotate ads even in v7.0 I will try to make it esay in next version

Displaying more than 3 slots on page is against Google TOS

update to v7.0 no more 3 ads show up in a page, but actually it's your responsibility to have 3 ads in a page.. this mod is give you options so you are the one - I mean anyone who use this mod - who decide what ads and how many! good luck

XML Error: Not well-formed (invalid token) at Line 0

download the product again .. it's seems your connection cut of the download or there is a problem in your board.

is there adsharing for users in thier own blog ?

no, not yet.

I installed the mod on my forum. Problem is on the forum display I see one blank row at the beginning and one at the end.

Any solution to get rid of those?

check out your publisher id in ads setup options

What are the Portal Output Global Variables so I can intergrate this into vbAdvanced?

may you can with v7.0

بارك الله فيك

[luket79]

Doesnt appear to be working. Upgraded from 6 to 7 and when I try to add a new ad unit, so my colors match again, clicking "save" doesn't add it to the list nor assign it an ID. Now I am displaying default google ads and cannot seem to change the colors...
