Add-On Releases - Angular Advertisement System

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

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

Notes:

I have done a minor change to your fantastic work...just added the possibility to manage the ads by date.

A new condition can be applied to ads in order to check for valid dates.

I have made changes to the following files:

- admincp/angadver.php
- includes/functions_angadver.php

The product installer (angular_advertisements.xml) is also modified in order to create the language variable for the new managed condition.

Please, feel free to use it/distribute it if you find it useful...

Regards

Thanks. I put this on the main body of this thread :up:

Any idea what would make my ads "bounce" while you scroll using IE7 (other than IE being crap)? If I can get this fixed, it would be AWESOME!

You're welcome. For this problem (I used a CSS hack to do this) while on IE7 fixed position attribute supported but in version 1.0 of Angular Advertisement modification due to a worthless problem it will used the CSS hack method, of course in the next version I solved it but I can't released it now, so please wait for the next version :up:

well i dont understand where to get a working picture for this advetisment thing

[Bluefin221]

Is it possible to have this on a rotational basis, I don't want 4 advertisements in every corner, just 1 advertisement in whatever corner I choose. I would though like to be able to run say for example 20 different advertisements which are chosen randomly from the active list of advertisements I have set in the admin panel.

Is this at all possible?

For current version this is not possible, but in new version (not released yet) this feature added.

[Bluefin221]

When will the new version be released as I will install it once that feature is available.

Really really but really thanks dude, that's what i was looking for!. Installed.

[TheLastSuperman]

Marked as Installed, it will be tonight after work and thanks for this... very nice IMO

[zimdude]

I had this working perfectly on 3.7
I upgraded to 3.8, upgraded our templates too. None of the modified templates were altered when I went back to look at them, and they all still had the Angular Ads mods. My question is;

Is there any other mods that have to be performed, or do I have to install the addon again when upgrading.

Thanks - awsome work!

Wicked mod, seen it about but never thought of using it. Pity it can't rotate between different adverts each time the page loads?
