Randomly positioned ad in between postbits in showthread · **Released**: 10-09-2005

Inspired by this hack.

The ad is positioned randomly after one of the postbits. We use this for positioning adsense ads on visordown.com.

Install the attached plugin then add the following code to your postbit or postbit_legacy template:

HTML Code:

<if condition="$GLOBALS['adsense_position'] == $post['postcount'] && $GLOBALS['adsense_position'] > 0">
$spacer_open 
<div style="padding:0px 0px $stylevar[cellpadding]px 0px"> 

<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center"> 
<tr> 
	<td class="thead" align="left">Sponsored Links</td> 
</tr> 
<tr> 
	<td class="alt1" align="center">

<!-- ad code goes here -->

	</td> 
</tr> 
</table> 

</div> 
$spacer_close 
</if>

Changelog

v1.01
Bug fix: The ad code shouldn't appear on PMs any more (template change)

how do you add additional usergroups? to

Code:

<if condition="in_array($bbuserinfo[usergroupid], array(1))">

like this?

Code:

<if condition="in_array($bbuserinfo[usergroupid], array(1, 2, 3, 4))">

ect etc?

This does appear to work with click for quick reply.

**clicks install**

To limit it just to certain user groups I'd recommend the following conditional rather than the in_array() solution posted above. This version ensures that secondary group assignments are checked too.

For a single user group (1 in this case)

PHP Code:


			
<if condition="is_member_of($bbuserinfo, 1)">

For multiple user groups (1, 2 & 3 in this case)

PHP Code:


			
<if condition="is_member_of($bbuserinfo, array(1,2,3))">

What about:
Show Adsense in (or under, above) first unread Post of a Thread.
I think this is the place that would get the most user attention?

UK Jimbo · #18 10-11-2005, 05:55 PM

That's a nice idea and one I'll look into. I think it will be possible to use the $threadview variable but it'll require slightly more CPU and will have to deal with cases where the latest the newest post isn't displayed on the page.

How can I get this to not show in the PM's???

For some reason it is screwing up the page formatting when viewing private messages.
