Randomly positioned ad in between postbits in showthread

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:

<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

just re-installed under 3.6, using the tips from above..good work. click *install*

Is it possible to have the ads displayed when viewing the forum index, or when viewing the thread topics within a group as opposed to having the ads displayed when one views the messages within a thread as this does now?

Would also like to know if I could have two rows of ads appear instead of one..

Works with 3.6, you just need to remove the space_open and spacer_closed.

Use this:

<div style="padding:6px 0px 0px 0px">

Here's what I use:

<if condition="$GLOBALS['adsense_position'] == $post['postcount'] && $GLOBALS['adsense_position'] > 0">
<div style="padding:6px 0px 0px 0px">
<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$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> 
</if>

Installed and working on 3.6.2! I made one small change, being that it only shows the random ads for guests.

works great, thanks

just had to remove the spacer stuff for 3.6 and add the new div tag.

thanks again...

*installed*

Removing spacer_closed and space_open and changing the div to <div style="padding:$stylevar[cellpadding]px 0px 0px 0px"> or <div style="padding:6px 0px 0px 0px"> doesn't work for me.

See -> http://www.webhostingtalk.nl/webhost...ders-bots.html

Any ideas?
