Show Thread Enhancements - Adsense above quickreply - 2 layout versions

Hi

To continue publishing my adsense modifications for vBulletin I have decided to release this mod as well.

What this hack does:

This hack places a google adsense leaderboard above the quick reply box in every thread.
I have two layout versions for this hack.
The first one is a in a box with a dotted border catching the attention and the second one is a simple box perfectly blending into the site.


How to install:

• The dotted boarder Version:

in the template "SHOWTHREAD" find:

<if condition="$show['multiquote_global']">
<script type="text/javascript" src="clientscript/vbulletin_multi_quote.js?v=$vboptions[simpleversion]"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
var mqlimit = $vboptions[mqlimit];
</script>
</if>

and add below:

<!-- 728x90 Leaderboard below Thread above Quick Reply -->
<div style="border: 2px dashed rgb(11, 25, 140); padding: 8px; background: rgb(245, 245, 255) none repeat scroll 0% 50%; -moz-background-clip: -moz-initial; -moz-background-origin: -moz-initial; -moz-background-inline-policy: -moz-initial; text-align: left; font-size: 80%;">
      <center>
<!-- Google Adsense Leaderboard above Quick Reply start -->
<script type="text/javascript"><!--
google_ad_client = "YOUR PUB ID HERE";
google_alternate_color = "F5F5FF";
google_ad_width = 728;
google_ad_height = 90;
google_ad_format = "728x90_as";
google_ad_type = "text";
google_color_border = "F5F5FF";
google_color_bg = "F5F5FF";
google_color_link = "000000";
google_color_text = "000000";
google_color_url = "000000";
//-->
</script>
<script type="text/javascript"
  src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js">
</script>

      </center>
</div><br />

To alter the colors of the dotted box you need to find the RGB color numbers for the color you want to use.
The first 3 numbers "rgb(11, 25, 140)" are for the border color and the second three numbers "rgb(245, 245, 255)" are for the background color.
Normaly any kind of paint program (photoshop, paint shop pro, etc) should give you the RGB numbers.
Alternatively if you are using Firefox you can install a nice plugin called: ColorZilla

• The blended in Version:

in the template "SHOWTHREAD" find:

<if condition="$show['multiquote_global']">
<script type="text/javascript" src="clientscript/vbulletin_multi_quote.js?v=$vboptions[simpleversion]"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
var mqlimit = $vboptions[mqlimit];
</script>
</if>

and add below:

<!-- 728x90 Leaderboard below Thread above Quick Reply -->
<table class="tborder" align="center" border="0" cellpadding="6" cellspacing="1" width="100%">
<tbody><tr>
    <td class="thead"  align="center">

     </div>
    </td>
</tr>
<tr>
 <td class="alt1" align="center">

You now just need to customize the adsense code marked with:

<!-- Google Adsense Leaderboard above Quick Reply start -->

replace "YOUR PUB ID HERE" with your pub-ID
and fit the colors of adsense to your color scheme

[Delphiprogrammi]

do not forget to change "google_ad_client" to your adsense id otherwise the coder get the earnings for this and that's probably not what you want :erm:

[StarBuG]

That's basic

good point very sneaky

[applyimage]

very nice.

[applyimage]

*installed* although my arn't showing up, this may be because ive only just set up adsense rather than a problem with the mod.

[StarBuG]

If you are new to adsense this could be the case.
Adsense takes a while till it has all your pages spidered.

Also the relevancy will increase over time.
