Hello
i decided to share this mod with everybody else , this is a paid hack , i received several PMs asking to share it with everybody else , so i did all credits goes to original author SecondV
VBulletin 4.x users click here
[hr]1[/hr]What does this hack do ??

This mod simply lets you put your desired ads or any other codes just in the middle of first post , in each page of a thread .
you can see a live demo here



[hr]1[/hr]Known Issues :
  • [s]you shouldn't edit your first post , that causes real problems , and you lose all the contents of first post.[/s] (this is solved in version 1.1)
  • sometimes it's not exactly in the middle of posts , that's because in logic sometimes there is no real half point , while some posts have even number of lines and some posts have odd number of lines . but it tries to put it to the nearest location to the mid point!
[hr]1[/hr]Try not to mention following things :
if you think it's against google TOS then don't install it but keep in mind you can also use it with other network ads , and keep in mind at no point google directly mentioned it's against their TOS to put adsense in between content , so do not insist
[hr]1[/hr]Installation :
Just Import the Prodcut and configure settings in admincp ( no template edits needed )
DONE
[hr]1[/hr]Updates
version 1.1 : first post editing bug FIXED
version 1.2 : option ADDED to hide copyright AND adsense input field integrated into mod's settings page
version 1.3 : option ADDED to limit ads to be visible to guests only as requested by jrwap
version 1.4 : The ads get applied to article comments as well on the CMS articles bug FIXED
version 1.5 : option ADDED to disable ads in certain forums ( as requested by wastemytime )
version 1.6 : unicode characters bug FIXED
version 1.7 : option for enabling ads in extra post ADDED ( as requested by barcena )
version 1.8 : PHP5 issue
version 1.9 : first post image only (no text) bug FIXED
[hr]1[/hr]Enjoy and please please try not to forget to click as Installed if you liked it you can also Nominate it for MOTM , that's optional but clicking as installed is a must

Hi Yank, just a quick thing, even though I know the mod is called Ads in the middle of first post, what about if I can't/don't want to place ads on the very first post due to be too close to another Ad system.... Will it be possible just to chose inside what post do I wanted as the mod you just did but with the option of NOT showing ads on the very first post? Right now you gave us the option to show ads on another post but the first one is by default, no way to disable that.

That will make your mod MOTM. LOL.

Hope I'm not asking for too much and is working well on 4.0, I had your mod placed for a couple of weeks on the first post and the ctr went to the roof.

PS. What Google slot do you think is more convenient to be placed inside a post? I have a 468x60.

maybe i'll add this feature too , but i dont promise because I'm a little busy during these weeks and i think many threads only have 1 post , and in that case no ads will be shown and no revenue if first post ads will be disabled , but i'll try to implement this feature too asap , Tnx for ur ideas and comments

Make your own decision but I have had my domain blacklisted for similar placement.

This violates Google's ToS - 100%.
