Adsense, different sizes for visitors to members

I made this for our forum because our members didn?t like it when we added the big Adsense banner under last post, so I made this small hack where it shows smaller adverts for members and bigger ones to visitors.

What it does:
Shows one size advert to visitors (Adsense, text links, banners or anything you want)
Can be set to have more features that to adds if you no coding (or ask)
Set to show for user groups

More good news
This mod also adds the adverts to the bottom of the read pm page just under the PM msg :up:


Files:
1 Product file
1 Main template edit
New template will need your ad?s adding

Folder contains:
product-google_adds_sizes.XML file
Read me first.txt file (please read first)

FAQ:

Q: will this work in 3.6.0
A: Yes

Q: Can I add more that two kinds of adverts?
A: Yes you will need to add more code to the template

Q: My ad's are not showing?
A: Please make sure you add your user groups like 1, 2, 3, 4 with the spaces and not 1,2,3,4

This is the code you will need I have commented it.

<if condition="in_array($bbuserinfo['usergroupid'], array(usergroupshere))">
advert here
</if>

Thank you

[MadKad]

please can you show me the website?

also you template on the google adds

Can anyone modify this to display the ads after a post randomly. There is a 3.5 hack that did this very well.

[MadKad]

if you can show me the 3.5 hack that did that then I might be able to get a little better idea on how they did it, but I would think there is alot of work to be done to get this to do it

You sure it doesn't violates the Google ToS?

If not, then I think i'll use it.

Thanks.

No it doesnt , ifact it cant, if you have it set to show big ad's to visitors then small or none to members there is no way it can

=================================================

Thats it that is the codes needed for both post styles after the first post

Tried doing this but it has yet to show after firs post, did anything change on 3.6.4 that affects this?

[MadKad]

please could you post the code for your postbit_legacy and postbit templates, so I can see what these look like

VB 3.6.4...

I go to styles and templates in admin cp...
Click download/upload style...

Import style xml file (browse to your xml file on my computer)
select merge INTO the style I want.
select ignore style version.

Click import and I get...

"invalid file specified"

This isn't a style, it's a product.
