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.

Having a little problem with this

If i post my banner code i nthe navbar section

<center><a href="http://www.lcweightlossbootcamp.com/">
<img border="1" src="http://www.biggestloserfans.com/image001.gif"</a></center>

It makes everything underlined on the whole page when you hover over something. It doesnt do this when you place this code i nthe footer or post areas.

ANy ideas?

I am pretty darn confused here...

I have everything installed correctly (i think)

Now... when I go to my admincp, under say "advertisement header and footer", and it asks for a "code"

What do the codes look like?

This is where I am running into problems.

You need advert code from whoever is your ad supplier like google adsense...etc

ahhh... just tried to add a google adsence code and nothing came up. I tried it inthe footer and header

I dont get it. Darn it.

[Simon Lloyd]

Firstly, when you first use Adsense code you will see an error in the ad location this will occur for up to a couple of hours while google adsense crawls it to determine the content before supplying the ads.

When you say nothing came up do you mean absolutely nothing? no error or anything atall?

[Simon Lloyd]

Funny, i just visited your site for the very first time to take a look at your ad locations and i get the message that my ip address has been banned!
