[BETA] Advertisement MOD 1.0.B1

[stitch626]

For some reason the Ads Banner is breaking the Milkyway Style and for the life of me I cannot figure it out. I know this mod isn't supported anymore but I was hoping someone might be able to figure this out.

See how the entire first post is shorted up and the text of the second post is way off to the right trailing off the page?

I would think there are some tags out of place or not closed.

Jeff,
Your referring to the Style or the Ad Banner? It must be the style because I never had a problem with it on subsilver.

Hi, I think this Mod is working..I installed it... and its all good

[acidrain]

BTW: how Exactly Does the donation mod work with this? I mean, if a person Donates to my board and is added to VIP list, can he get rid of the ads ?

And Also can you manage the adsence thing from any where near the acp ..i dont think so or ??

You can set permission with the MOD and for the supporters the permissions to see the ads are off so we dont get them.

can you a little bit more detail on this please (include the steps)

Well I haven't installed it as of yet. but i imagine on the forum based permission, Not the forum permission there is an option on each group to show the Ads. I may be wrong, as I say I have not installed it yet. But ill have a quick look at the install instructions and i should be able to tell.

EDIT:

Ok there are NO permission with this, I thought there would have been. Now my question is the same as yours.

I dled this mod the other day and just got it working, is there anyway I can make it so that the ad doesn't disappear once someone reply's to the topic? I took out <!-- IF postrow.S_FIRST_ROW --> but that put it at the bottom of the topic but did make it come back up, need help thanks.

Thanks for the info, and I appreciate the fact that you can only support the two official styles. I just thought I would pass this along in case any other AcidTech readers were trying to install it. Yes, the tip you mentioned was necessary to make it display. However, although the banner does appear properly after the first post, the formatting of all subsequent posts is messed up in AcidTech. I think we're disrupting some table settings, maybe closing a table prematurely or whatever. The logic in the style is kinda confusing...

I know it's been awhile since the last post but I figured if anyone out there still needed this fix I would post my own solution. I fixed the problem with Acid Tech not formatting properly after the first post, the tables were a little screwy, too many if you ask me. I also removed the google image and some tables that weren't necessary in order to make it more compact in appearance, personally I like it better this way.

Just replace ad_banner.html with the following code. (Don't forget to add your google pub ID)

Code: Select all
