Adsense, different sizes for visitors to members ? under last post

I made this for our forum because our members didn?t like it when we added the big Adsense banner under last post, so I made this small hack where it shows smaller adverts for members and bigger ones to visitors.

What it does:
Shows one size advert to visitors (Adsense, text links, banners or anything you want)
Can be set to have more features that to adds if you no coding (or ask)
Set to show for user groups

Files:
1 Product file
1 Main template edit
New template will need your ad?s adding

Folder contains:
product-google_adds_sizes.XML file
Read me first.txt file (please read first)

FAQ:

Q: will this work in 3.6.0
A: Yes

Q: Can I add more that two kinds of adverts?
A: Yes you will need to add more code to the template

Q: My ad's are not showing?
A: Please make sure you add your user groups like 1, 2, 3, 4 with the spaces and not 1,2,3,4

This is the code you will need I have commented it.

<if condition="in_array($bbuserinfo['usergroupid'], array(usergroupshere))">
advert here
</if>

Yer you can add any adverts you want, also you can add more adverts to show for different groups.

Just add your code for your adverts where it tells you on the template

is there anyway i can make the ads just appear for visitors to the site and not to registered members. At the moment when i log out i can see the ads (great) but when i log in i just see the table area at the bottom of the threads with no content. Is it possible to have this table removed while i'm signed in?

Added a screen shot for clarity

[rollo tamasi]

could you clarify this please

To change who sees what please add the user groups by doing the following

Find:
Usergroups

and replace with your registerd user groups like this = 3,6,9,10,4

where do i modify the usergroups? I'm using VB 3.5.4
At the moment i have installed your mod but my ads are not appearing to my members.

if you want to do that just place all the new code that is in side your template in the middle of this

 <if condition="in_array($bbuserinfo['usergroupid'], array(usergroupshere))">
all code here
</if>

see the template

<if condition="in_array($bbuserinfo['usergroupid'], array(usergroupshere))">
all code here
</if>

that code where you placed your adds in the middle, you need to add the user groups where it says usergroupshere like the visitors as defoult are 1 so others will be 2 etc etc add them like

<if condition="in_array($bbuserinfo['usergroupid'], array(1,2,3))">
all code here
</if>

and it should work, any problems please say

please also note if you are using adsence then the ad's might not show straght away as google adsnce spider has to have visited your page first for ad's to show
