Add-On Releases - Advertisement System V2.6 Aka Ad Management

Many forums are using the Ad management system, however the coder has stopped supporting the script. Therefore I have decided to release this modification. I will give support to those who need it and continue to make updates to the system.

====>> Live Demo
The Advertisement System was designed with the intent that anyone with any level of experience could use the system. It is easy to install and once installed, the templates are easy to use on a site. The advertisement system has several features that sites will enjoy such as it can be used on versions 3.6.x as well as 3.7.x. The ads can be placed in the following areas: header , footer , below whats going on, below the navbar , postbit , postbit legacy, pms, announcement, archive, left & right column in forum home , left column in member info and full page , threadbit , as well as forumbit. Also, the ability to not display advertisement on certain pages such as login, registration & the search page. This system allows you to personalize the system to better suit their needs such as setting permissions like ads after first post on a page, ads after last post on a page, ads after X post on a page, and ads every X posts on a thread. You may also display ads by forum ID, as well as customize the full page for your site. The system comes with a feature for auto refresh ads as well as Google analytics. Besides the features,there is constant support given to those who need it and of course, updates are made to the system in order to better serve the sites using the system.

My friend, do i need to take screenshots to you? I did exactly what you said, im not dumb or something.
It must be something else, dunno what.

Note: It is working perfectly for logged in users.

ad_headerEnd

<if condition="$vboptions[advert_header_onoff]">
		<center><iframe src="http://www.amazonia8.com/forum/autorefresh_header.php" width=790 height=90 frameborder=0 scrolling=no></iframe></center></if>

ad_navbarBelow

<if condition="$vboptions[advert_navbar_archives_onoff]">
		<center><iframe src="http://www.amazonia8.com/forum/autorefresh_navbar.php" width=790 height=90 frameborder=0 scrolling=no>
</iframe></center></if>

ad_footerEnd

<if condition="$vboptions[advert_footer_onoff]">
		<center><iframe src="http://www.amazonia8.com/forum/autorefresh_footer.php" width=790 height=90 frameborder=0 scrolling=no>
</iframe></center></if>

What else ? It still saying:

Unable to add cookies, header already sent.
File: c:\Inetpub\amazonia8\web\forum\autorefresh_header.php
Line: 1

And not showing to guests/Not logged in users.

Karim004, i would like to install this on my site, i'm using VB3.7.3 PL1, VBAdvanced, AWCoding donation system 3.0.3, VBSeo 3.2, VBSeo sitemap gen 2.2, Links & Downloads manager 2.2.9 and Solved threads, would your system be ok with those? when i install this can i set which usergroups see ads and which don't? i have an adsense account but no ads at the moment, is it a case of just dropping the adsense code in to your system?

Regards,
Simon

i dont need a screenshots ! the guests cant acces to your forum folder thats why they cant see the ads in ad_headerEnd, ad_navbarBelow , ad_footerEnd remember the 3 php files for this 3 templates stored in your forum folder !


printscreen = your forum index (forumhome)

Hello buddy, i'm afraid i still cant understand what are you talking about.
This is my step-by-step till now:

1) Uploaded into /forum folder(see atachment ftp_folder.jpg):
ads.php
autorefresh_footer.php
autorefresh_header.php
autorefresh_navbar.php
Ps.: Inside each file i found nothing to edit like URL's or something so i leave it as it is;

2) Uploaded the xml file;

3) Made all the modifications in the instruction file named "Templates edits for vb 3.7.x.txt".(revised and its everything alright);

4) Settings in vBulletin options its ok(only using Header and 2 footer banners at this moment, right colunm is a module on its own);

5) Edited the templates ad_headerEnd , ad_navbarBelow , ad_footerEnd adding the full url to the autorefresh files like you said;

6) "/forum" folder permission is set to CHMOD 777;

7) "ads.php", "autorefresh_footer.php", "autorefresh_header.php" and "autorefresh_navbar.php" all set to CHMOD 666;

It looks everything alright!!!! Thats why i'm so exausted!!
Am i missing something else?!?!!?!?

[karim004]
