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.

Hello everyone!

I just installed this add-on, but I don't think it can achieve what my intention was. I would like to have right column of advertisements not just on my home page, but rather on every page of my forum. Is this at all possible? If this add-on cannot do it, is there another way for me to achieve it?

in in top of your footer template add :

$ad_rightcolumn_code

karim004, or anyone else willing to hep, when I implement the above, I see the advertisements on the bottom of my page, in the footer, instead of in right column. However, in archives the ads do display correctly in right column. How can I correct this?

to display the right column in all pages:
1= template footer :
above :

$spacer_close

add :

$ad_rightcolumn_code

2= template Navbar :
at the end of your template add :

<table border="0" width="100%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" align="center">
<tr>
<td valign="top">

karim004, I thank you very much. Now I see the right column on all pages. There is just a little aesthetic issue, as the right column is positioned in a slightly different location on my home page, a bit different location in forums/sub-forums, and again a little bit different location when I read individual threads.

I'll try to figure this one out myself. If I get stuck, I will come back for help.

Thanks again for your time and a great add-on!

Hi everyone,

Thanks for the module, it looks very promising

I implemented the hack above to get the ad showing on all the pages and it worked great.

Only thing is that now it also shows on the registration page (all registration pages) at the bottom.

How do I solve this?

admincp , vbulletin options , Advertisement System (Settings & Slideshow) 2 nd option : Do NOT display advertisements for scripts:
then add register Exp:

online|register|login

I see #0 is "_new" and #1 + are "new" in your example in Admin.

Also, what other options can be there?

???

Hi first of all thanks for the module and the help!

I tried the above, but my advertisements (a right side bar ad) is now still showing on the registration pages as well as the front page of my forum.

Front page: ad showing on right side bar as well as on the bottom of forum
Registration page: ad only showing at the bottom of the page.

online|register|login was already in my 'Do NOT display advertisements for scripts' box

Any other way to get around this?

Thanks in advance!

Cheers
