Mini Mods - A Neater Google Adsense After First Post

Ok, so i haven't found any google adsence products for vb 4 yet that sit neatly under your first post only, on every page. Credits to Miko and my self for a few tiny edits.

How To Install
Step.1:
GoTo Postbit Templates>>open postbit_legacy and add at the very bottom:

<vb:if condition="$post['isfirstshown']">
<li class="firstpost_advert_container"><div class="firstpost_advert">
      REPLACE THIS WITH YOUR ADSENSE CODE HERE
</div>
</li>
</vb:if>

Step.2:
GoTo CSS Templates>>open additional.css and add this code:

.firstpost_advert_container {
    clear: both;
    display: block;
    float: left;
    margin-bottom: 12px;
    position: relative;
    width: 100%;
    border: 1px solid #E5E6F4;
}

.firstpost_advert {
    with: 100%;
    background: #F1F1FA;
    border: 1px solid #fff;
    min-height: 90px;
    margin: 0;
    padding: 7px;
    text-align: center;
    vertical-align: middle;
}

Feel free to customize to your needs, i had to mess around to suit my custom style. I changed the min-height to 90px for a neater look for 728x90 ads and changed margin-bottom: to 18px. But how the code is above is perfect for Vbulletin 4 Default.
DEMO: Teen Forums
Please Note: im not a coder, i just wanted to share this with others, its VERY easy to add to your styles and looks neat. Good Luck.
This coding is also different than Mod Version: 1.00, by Allan. You shouldn't have any problems with this and it will do you till a product version comes out.

How to add advertisement after last post on the page? It's simple

DEMO here.

You have to make a small change in the pasted code in Postbit Legacy Template (postbit_legacy) (on the color green).

<vb:if condition="$post['islastshown']">
<li class="firstpost_advert_container"><div class="firstpost_advert">
      REPLACE THIS WITH YOUR ADSENSE CODE HERE
</div>
</li>
</vb:if>

If you want to have two advertisements simultaneously, the advertisement after the first post and the one after the last, paste this into the previous one. Postbit Legacy Template (postbit_legacy) should look like this (paste this code at the end):

<vb:if condition="$post['isfirstshown']">
<li class="firstpost_advert_container"><div class="firstpost_advert">
      REPLACE THIS WITH YOUR ADSENSE CODE HERE
</div>
</li>
</vb:if>

<vb:if condition="$post['islastshown']">
<li class="firstpost_advert_container"><div class="firstpost_advert">
      REPLACE THIS WITH YOUR OTHER ADVERTISEMENT CODE HERE
</div>
</li>
</vb:if>

When using this code, advertisement after the last post using the same code CSS Template (additional.css) for the first advertisement. Don't change anything in CSS Template. But when changing CSS Template for second advertisement (after last post) must add this code to CSS Template (paste at the end in additional.css)

.lastpost_advert_container {
    clear: both;
    display: block;
    float: left;
    margin-bottom: 12px;
    position: relative;
    width: 100%;
    border: 1px solid #E5E6F4;
}

.lastpost_advert {
    with: 100%;
    background: #F1F1FA;
    border: 1px solid #fff;
    min-height: 90px;
    margin: 0;
    padding: 7px;
    text-align: center;
    vertical-align: middle;
}

and change in Postbit Legacy this green text:

<vb:if condition="$post['isfirstshown']">
<li class="firstpost_advert_container"><div class="firstpost_advert">
      REPLACE THIS WITH YOUR ADSENSE CODE HERE
</div>
</li>
</vb:if>

<vb:if condition="$post['islastshown']">
<li class="lastpost_advert_container"><div class="lastpost_advert">
      REPLACE THIS WITH YOUR OTHER ADVERTISEMENT CODE HERE
</div>
</li>
</vb:if>

Hi Guys, not sure what I'm doing wrong, but can't get anything to display (in either first post or last post)..

This is the bottom of my postbit_legacy template

{vb:raw template_hook.postbit_end}

<vb:if condition="$post['isfirstshown']">
<li class="firstpost_advert_container"><div class="firstpost_advert">
<script type="text/javascript"><!--
google_ad_client = "ca-pub-753992401340nnnn";
/* slim long one, created 10/18/10 */
google_ad_slot = "444781nnnn";
google_ad_width = 728;
google_ad_height = 90;
//-->
</script>
<script type="text/javascript"
src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js">
</script></div>
</li>
</vb:if>

Am I missing something? I've also modded the additional.css templates...

I'm using 4.1.0 Patch Level 2, any help appreciated.

UPDATE: Ok, so I have this running ok one on board, but the other it only shows if I'm logged out... Obviously something to do with permissiong... Any help still appreciated!

bump... Still looking for help on this one :-)

I would say something to do with permissioning, but can't find out where :-)

Very good one, tagged.

It displays the adsense on the first post, of each page correct? Like, if the thread has multiple pages, does it still show up?
