Angular Advertisement System · **Released**: 01-08-2009

Angular Advertisement System
New Generation of vBulletin's Advertisement Systems

In the Internet world, advertisements had a special place, because of than we see most of Internet web sites have assign special sectors of their pages to this affair, so I thought to design this system for vBulletin with a new idea, of course.

What is my purpose of angular?
I choose 'angular' prefix for this system, because general purpose of Angular Advertisement System is display some information in each fourth angles of the screen with a fixed position, so vBulletin's administrators may use this system to display important advertisements, notices, thoughts and etc to users by a powerful inform way.

What are features of Angular Advertisement System?

Perfect integrating with vBulletin and ability to integrate with third-party scripts
Using Administrator's permission system
Easily styling the advertisement to be displayed via Advertisements Manager panel without need to additional tools
Display advertisements to specific users which have bundle of specific qualification (Set Criteria)

Overall Traits

Using vBulletin Options
Using Datastore (Cache System) - To optimize load of pages
Wholly Phrased
Completely Control Panel Help
Includes Hooks - To using for third-party scripts
Quick and Easy Installation

Installation Guide

Prenotion: This modification work with vBulletin 3.8.0 and also vBulletin 3.7.x

Upload the files in the upload folder to your vBulletin root.
Import the 'angular_advertisements.xml' via Product Manager system.

Notes:

If you have changes on default vBulletin's directory names, please attention to upload each file to pertain location.
Make sure that 'images/angularadvertisement' directory is writeable by your host (CHMOD 777), of course if you would like to upload images for Angular Advertismenets.

Congratulation, you are successfully installed Angular Advertisements system on your board.

If you have using Style's that not support Auto-Template, you may read this post.

If you want to have an feature to limitation of displaying advertisement for specified date range, you may click here. I say thank you to cgine for this change.

My Note: I hope this modification will be useful for you and I say already thank you to people who using this hack.

I have an idea and will use this if it can be done.
How about setting it to have a message to sign up showing for guests. Then when they become registered members they don't see it any more.
Possible?

Yes, this is possible. You may check the User is not logged in (Guest) qualification of the ADS.

Could you help to make it work with VBSEO skin? Text ad is ok in firefox, but have strange offsent in IE7. May be, because that skin uses ablosute positioning in head.

Yes, problem is, that $angadvers should be added just after <BODY>, because header postbit can have additional divs before logo.

Why do you insert you html after  instead prepending header postbit at start? If it's necessary for some reasons, could you add option to disable autotemplates? It's not a problem to insert code via TMS in proper place for each skin.

In new version I will put this option too. Thanks.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
