Ads Manager 2 by Siropu [Paid] 2.5.8

[Jon12345]

I am on Ads Manager 2.4.2. I just upgraded Xenforo from 2.2 to 2.3. Anyone know if I can re-enable it or will it break the site? I can't see anything about compatilbility.

That version (2.4.2) is from Oct 3, 2020. You are probably going face some issues since the 2.3 compatible version was released on July 1 (2.5.0)

2.5 is the first 2.3 compatible item according to his website. I need to renew/upgrade as well still.

It was working fine on 2.2. I use only a tiny smidgen of the features. Would be great if I could carry on using it.

2.2 and 2.3 aren’t the same beast. You can of course give it a whirl, but just be expecting issues.

I upgraded to Xenforo 2.3 and now our ad manager 2.4.2 has broken, no carousel rotation and some links don't work.

2.5.0 is for XF 2.3

 

[Sal Collaziano]

2.5.0 is for XF 2.3

Should we upgrade to 2.5.0 before upgrading to XF 2.3 or after? Is 2.5.0 compatible with XF 2.2.16?

 

[duderuud]

After.

No

Hello, upgraded to 2.5, but now the transition options don't work it just stays on slide even if "fade" is checked, also cannot adjust time length between rotations as well as transition speed. The features were working correctly before upgrade. Thanks !

Look at your browser View -> developer tool to see if there is any javascript error on the page.

I don't see any errors, this is what the element shows (see pic). Set to fade but when the page is viewed it just rapidly slides.

Edit : Added pic, found errors, thanks !

This add-on is so robust that I wonder if I'm missing this...

Is there an option that'll allow an admin to create a "sticky thread" on the "what's new" page? This would enable one topic (or more) to stay at the top of the list of discussions that haven't been read yet. If it doesn't already exist, perhaps it could have an admin option to remove the thread (or not) for people who have already viewed it.

I may be missing something, but I need the ability to export the statistics from each banner ad, so we can place them into an excel spreadsheet and view performance over time -- I don't see any capability to do this.

The "Export" function on the gear icon only exports data about the ad, not the statistics.

Without the ability to comprehensively export statistics, this add-on is much less useful. Did I miss the feature somewhere?

For those who encounter this issue, try running one of these SQL query in your phmyadmin:

ALTER TABLE `xf_siropu_ads_manager_package` ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC;
ALTER TABLE `xf_siropu_ads_manager_package` ROW_FORMAT=COMPRESSED;

I use this addon to create navigation buttons on my forum that look like this:



but recently my users have reported that the buttons have disappeared for them. Then yesterday the navigation buttons disappeared for me too.

I tried clearing cache/cookies to no avail. Oddly the buttons are gone in Chrome and Firefox desktop but are still there on the mobile version, and still there in Edge.

In the Chrome element inspector I noticed that it adds CSS to edit out the buttons:



So what can I do?

That looks like ad block doing its work. You have the option in admin options to rename ad elements to something more unique so that adblock cannot block the container.

How is that done?

You don't mean this option do you? Because this does not work at all.



It seems like I have to rename the ID's #text_ads and #ad-spot but I don't see the option to do that. Why have the word "ad" in there at all?
