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.
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.

BTW any way to reduce the gap between side column and table of the forum ?
Edit the leftcolumn/rightcolumn_advertisement and alter style="padding-left/right:12px;" to your taste.

RedTyger... I just thought of a feature that might be useful for future versions of this plugin.
My advertisers pay me to run banner ads for certain time periods. Usually, monthly, quarterly or yearly. It would be great if we could place a start date and an end date for when these ads run.
That way, I could manage my banner ad program with all of my advertisers easier.
RedTyger... yes, per banner would probably be the best case scenario.
For example, say I have 10 advertisers. For simplicity, 10 rotating banner advertisements are displayed at the top of my forum. Throughout the year, the advertisers decide to advertise with me at different times. One may sign on quarterly from 10/1 - 12/31/2006. Another may sign on monthly from 10/1 - 10/31/2006. Finally, one may sign on yearly from 10/1/2006 - 9/30/2007. (I offer discounted rates the longer they decide to advertise with me.)
I have to manually keep a log of when they start advertising and when they end advertising with me. (In case they don't renew, I don't want them to get free advertising.)
Make sense? If I could automate this, so that there was a date check before the banner was displayed, that would be great.

I may well add this for the static banner code sections but for the random banners that's quite a major task I'm not looking to do at this stage, which I appreciate is primarily what it's for but if it's very important to you and you don't mind a required payment there's a mod by The Geek called GAB which does it per banner I believe.
RedTyger... that makes perfect sense. Even if it were just "static" banners, that would be great. I'm all about product usability... and I think this would be a great feature to implement.
