Major Additions - vB Ad Management 4

vB Ad Management 4

Check the FAQ before requesting support!

What does it do?

Features include global settings, advertisements allowing template conditionals, ad sharing and ad revenue sharing, timed advertisements, preset popular ad locations and functions such as sponsors, additional custom ad locations, random and static advertisements and its all very easy to use. You can use it for ordinary ads like adsense, banner rotations, or any content at all as well as using it to manage ads outside your forum too.

You can read in more detail about these and other features in the manual, which also contains some helpful notes and instructions, as well as the installation and upgrade instructions



If you are using autoinsertion and were using vB Ad Management before version 4.00, you will need to remove your old template edits or advertisements will appear multiple times. Just reverse the old instructions below.

* Find <!-- post $post[postid] popup menu --> and paste $postbit_advertisement above it in your postbit & postbit_legacy templates.
* Paste $forumbit_advertisement at the bottom of your forumhome_forumbit_level1_post and forumhome_forumbit_level2_post templates.
* Paste $threadbit_advertisement at the bottom of your threadbit template.
* Paste $footer_advertisement at the top of your footer template.
* Find $spacer_close in your footer template and below it paste $rightcolumn_advertisement.
* Find &nbsp; in your header template and replace it with $header_advertisement.
* Find $spacer_open in your header template and below it paste $leftcolumn_advertisement.

I re-installed this last night since the other software was not to my liking........ Anyhow, If I try to put the ads under the logo (which is centered) the ads are on the left side. If I put ads under the navbar it is centered. How do I center them under the logo and make them a click-able link?

Hi! I need some help here. This is what I want the forumbit ads to look like and where I want them:



I have no idea how to go about this. I tried to add a banner code and it was showing up in a separate forum space. How do I make it fit into that spot?

Also, how do I specify which forum each banner will go with?

I really appreciate some detailed help. I am very new at this and unsure exactly how to do it. :-D

TIA!

There are many issues and it's not supported by the coder any longer as he had not replied to this thread in months

I wonder if I am the only one having this problem (3.6.8). I use this mod to display google ads. Works fine (postbit). But when I want to click on the name of a poster I dont get the menue with "show profile" etc. Nothing happens. I dont know if this is related to this mod or google adsense. But maybe someone else is having this problem and knows what this is about.

[symptome]

Yes, I got the same problem (2323)

Layout screwed in IE6 & IE7 by adding googleads, you can see it on:

Anyone know how i can solve this?

The directory structure within the download file is the same as your forum. So admincp/vb_ad_management goes in your forum's admincp directory, etc.

Come on give us the directory and download files names..

Would be a big help for a newbie!
