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.
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.

hello, does this work with 3.6.3? I heard it gives errors in FF, I mostly use firefox... so can someone verify this statement?
It was tested in IE7, FF2.0 and Opera 9, worked fine in all of them. If there's a problem, I haven't seen it or heard about it.

Hm, I see. Can't think of a good workaround for that because all the ad placements are dynamic.
To everyone only subscribed to the thread for updates and not the installation button (shame on you) the same message again for your benefit:

Version 2.0 of vB Ad Management has been released.
This version extends the advertising with posts functionality to other areas of the forum whilst also adding random banner rotation and other minor feature additions. See the thread on vBulletin.org for a full list.
This release contains optimisations to the code as well as feature updates so even if you just want to use the features present in version 1.0 I suggest that everyone upgrade to the latest version.
