Arcade hack and PhpAdsNew doesn't work together!

[wolfyman]

echo...echo.............echo.........

interested

I am running phpadsnew on a seperate php page, and I use this in php_includestart:

ob_start();
include('banners.php');
$banners = ob_get_contents();
ob_end_clean();

which gives me the same problem.

How do I fix the problem? Thanks a bunch!

[wolfyman]

yeah.... a bump for me

Hi Mika you say "phpinclude_start should be something like this:"

Unfortunately I am not a coder and it's like looking at chinese to me, maybe I you paste in exactly what you used I can learn from that. I'd be violently happy if you could help me clarify what to change Thanks!!

oh here is my phpincludestart:

PHP Code:

// Example of how to include a seperate file:
// ob_start();
// require("yourheader.html");
// $header = ob_get_contents();
// ob_end_clean();

eval('$navbar2 = "' . fetch_template('navbar2') . '";'); 

// GET NUMBER OF NEW POSTS 
$newposts = $DB_site->query_first("SELECT count(*) AS count FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "post WHERE dateline > '$bbuserinfo[lastvisit]'"); 

// DETERMINE IF "POSTS" IS SINGULAR OR PLURAL 
if ($newposts[count] == 1) 
{ 
    $newposts[plural] = ""; 
} 
else 
{ 
    $newposts[plural] = "s"; 
}

   if (@include(getenv('DOCUMENT_ROOT').'/ads/phpadsnew.inc.php')) {
        if (!isset($phpAds_context)) $phpAds_context = array();
        $phpAds_raw = view_raw ('zone:1', 0, '', '', '0', $phpAds_context);
        echo $phpAds_raw['html'];
    }

   if (@include(getenv('DOCUMENT_ROOT').'/ads/phpadsnew.inc.php')) {
        if (!isset($phpAds_context)) $phpAds_context = array();
        $phpAds_raw2 = view_raw ('zone:2', 0, '', '', '0', $phpAds_context);
        echo $phpAds_raw2['html'];
    }

if (@include(getenv('DOCUMENT_ROOT').'/ads/phpadsnew.inc.php')) {
        if (!isset($phpAds_context)) $phpAds_context = array();
        $phpAds_raw3 = view_raw ('zone:3', 0, '', '', '0', $phpAds_context);
        echo $phpAds_raw3['html'];
    }

if (@include(getenv('DOCUMENT_ROOT').'/ads/phpadsnew.inc.php')) {
        if (!isset($phpAds_context)) $phpAds_context = array();
        $phpAds_raw4 = view_raw ('zone:4', 0, '', '', '0', $phpAds_context);
        echo $phpAds_raw4['html'];
    } 


ah, i think I see what your code does it prevents the banner from showing in the arcade? But I would lose a lot of revenue like that, I need the banners. I guess I am out of luck, maybe I can dig up an old copy of ibpro arcade but maybe it would have the same problem

$35 paypal to anyone who can fix this for me. I need local invocation code and banners in the arcade and arcade able to submit scores. pm me if you can do it, you'll probably need the arcade and php ads new on your own server to test the fix, I can't have anyone playing around on my install. thanks

Why would you need to use phpinclude_start ?

Try the JAVA output that phpads uses vs. the PHP output. It will paste in all templates.

All ver of VB. I have not installed a hack as of yet that will stop it from working adversely. (granted I have not tryed to stop the news java from working, but 80+ hacks installed and no problems.) since VB2

To each their own, but it works for me

Another Note:

I use "banner per forum" (vb3x / vb3.5x) hack I made and paste the java into the "paste html" area. As well as in the header, footer, sidebar.

Now (phpAds can do its magic ... mahahahahha) with this I can create multi-campaigns each with muli-banners in rotation per campaign by subject. With the hack I can place a campaign per forum.

Campaign1 - subject1 / client - on Forum1
Banner
Banner
Banner
Banner
Banner
Banner

Campaign2 - subject2 / client - on Forum2
