Mini Mods - Adsense Inside the Post

This little template modification allows you to put an Ad inside the post with Text wrapped around the Ad.

See Screenshot.

In postbit template replace

 <!-- message -->
  <div id="post_message_$post[postid]">$post[message]</div>
   <!-- / message -->

With

        <!-- message -->
<if condition="(($post[postcount] % $vboptions[maxposts] == 1)) and ($show['guest'])">
<span style="margin: 2px; float: right; width: 301px; height: 251px;">
        ADSENSE CODE HERE
</span>
</if>
    <div id="post_message_$post[postid]">$post[message]</div>
              <!-- / message -->

• you will have to replace ADSENSE CODE HERE with the actual code.
• The code is for 300 * 250 Medium Rectangle Format,Edit width & height parameters if you want to use any other format.
• Ad is shown on the first and last post (modify if you want)
• Ad is shown to guests Only ( remove "and ($show['guest'])" to show to all)

Version History:
v 1.0.1 :Ads displayed after the first post on every page (instead of just the first page)

Tip: To remove quote button for guests.
Replace

<if condition="$post['replylink']

with

<if condition="$post['replylink'] AND $show['member']">

I just read their guidelines and didn't see any mention of it.

I'm sure, if they do indeed prohibit the use of ads in this manner that we could simply substitute the code for another code from another ad agency. (as long as the ads look different from those from google's)

He is correct. You are not allowed to use Iframes -- but the ad can go there.

Here is the correct way:

FIND:

<!-- message -->
  <div id="post_message_$post[postid]">$post[message]</div>
   <!-- / message -->

Replace with:

<!-- message -->
        <div id="post_message_$post[postid]">
<if condition="($post[postcount]==1) and ($show['guest'])">
<div style="float: right; margin: 0 0 5px 5px;">
        <script type="text/javascript"><!--
google_ad_client = "pub-0574157151562455";
/* 250x250, created 28/03/08 */
google_ad_slot = "5276949639";
google_ad_width = 250;
google_ad_height = 250;
//-->
</script>
<script type="text/javascript"
src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js">
</script>
<br />
</div>
</if>
$post[message]
</div>
        <!-- / message -->

Change to match your set-up!

Anyway, where would I edit to get my ads to down the right hand side of a thread? Am I right in thinking somewhere in the 'showthread' template?

Thanks!

Now why do you have this there for?

[Jase2]

You don't, remove it if you want.

[Liquid1ce]

its same for postbit legacy?

[dancue]

I'm using mine on postbit legacy. Works fine. Just be sure to use Jase's version (post 13 in this thread) if you are using google for ads.

[netsavy006]

It's not working for me. I was trying it out with Bidvertiser code and it doesn't work:

        <!-- message -->
<if condition="(($post[postcount] % $vboptions[maxposts] == 1))">
<span style="margin: 2px; float: right; width: 301px; height: 251px;">
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript1.1" SRC="http://bdv.bidvertiser.com/BidVertiser.dbm?pid=84584&bid=241167" type="text/javascript"></SCRIPT>
<noscript><a href="http://www.bidvertiser.com">affiliate program</a></noscript>
</span>
</if>
    <div id="post_message_$post[postid]">$post[message]</div>
              <!-- / message -->

I think this kind of add placing is really annoying and makes you think how greedy the admin is..

But hey, thats just me

I disagree. If it's kept on just the first post of every thread it isn't as annoying. Hey, we've got to try and make our money somehow...
