Default How to Add" Sponsored Links" Forum?

On some forums I noticed that they have a "sponsored links" category or forum as a form of advertisement. Does anyone know how to add this? Is there a a mod or company that offers it here on vBulletin.org? I haven't been able to find anything. Is this an exclusive AdSense thing for forums or are there other advertisers that offer this?

Any input is appreciated. Thanks!

Thank you very much for the mod. I will look into this.

A very good example of what I was talking about is on this vbulletin forum:
http://forum.dontpayfull.com/

They have about 2 or 3 "Sponsored Links" forums at any given time.

I can see that getting lost myself, took me a bit to find it. I personally think a dedicated area like in the mod is much more predominant.

I would say all they did there was created a new forum and inserted adsense code within the description.

Yeah, it is very simple. Just create a new forum and place your ad code inside the description. You can then set it either as a forum for that sponsor or just set it as a link only.

I haven't looked at that mod that Ozzy posted but the mod I think of which may be what he posted is to display a specific banner inside a forum which is also pretty cool. Otherwise this would have to be done using conditionals and a mod is always easier than that.

## - I see the mod that Ozzy listed but I haven't used it. It was not the one I mentioned but Ozzy's mods are always useful!
