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.

Works for 3.8. Why did you not at 3.8 to the compatibility List of this Hack?

[Yellow Slider]

this modification doesn't work well with a new copy of 3.8, when I reverted the templates and installed the modification again, there were a few bugs with the ads below the navbar and the header part.

[Simon Lloyd]

I haven't experienced any bugs as i made the template edits again!, i'm running the stable release of 3.8.0 ads are fine check here http://www.thecodecage.com/forumz/

[Turbe]

I'm still running v2.3 of this Mod without problems... (on vB 3.7.5)...

I will be updating vB to 3.8 soon/eventually...

I saw no need to go beyond v2.3 of this Mod since it looks like he just added features to simplify the install and setup for noobs....

I use the Adsense option in this Mod, I see vB v3.8 adds its own support for Adsense now...


Once again, thank your karim for your work and ongoing support...

Of course there is............Pay for it!, come on, this fellow has gone to the trouble of designing something you want and released it for you to use for free, an all he asks is that the credits and property rights are his, is that too much to ask?

He will give you a branded product where you dont see any copyright, check my site http://www.thecodecage.com and you wont see his copyright or even his name, its a paid for product (not very expensive) and you get tons of free support directly from him, PM Karim004 and ask him about it, if you don't get a response from him in a day or two PM me your email and i will contact him for you and give him your details.

I have it set to only display an ad on the postbit after 1 post and no others, yet there is another ad some posts done. Anyone else having this issue? My settings:

Display advertisement after X post on a page? (blank)
This will force ads to be displayed just after a amount of posts in thread (blank)
Enter how many posts a thread must contain for advertisements to be displayed. 1

[Simon Lloyd]

In the blank boxes type 0 and you should then only see the ad after the first post!

I did so and it's the same. It only seems to do it on long threads... even though I have 0's in the settings.
