[Siropu]

Will your "Affiliate link option in Ads Manager 2 function within Bob's Classifieds Ads System addon? (to rewrite URLS)

I have added this feature in the next release.

Thanks VERY much!

Can I request another feature, please?
Can you add another ads display order option for ads package that goes by the alphabet ordering of the ads?
In the below example, I name each ads based on the event date (YYYY-MM-DD). By default, the ads package will display them by that order.
With the new package ads display option, I don't have to go to each ads and edit its display order manually which can be very time consuming.
Thank you

I'd like to use the 'every x' position option, but need my ad code to each have a unique div ID, how have people done that?

Hi @Siropu,

I uploaded the GeoLite2-City.mmdb file to the specified folder. I can now select individual or multiple countries in the geo criteria settings of the ad. However, when I click "Save," the selections aren't saved. Could you please check this? I'm using version 2.6.2 under XenForo 2.3.7.

Thanks!

You are probably using a package and need to make the changes in the package instead.

@Siropu we need to display a short affiliate disclosure notices on pages - is Ads Manager 2 a good tool for this?
or is that a waste of its resources?
Thank you

The expiration dates for individual ads in a package seem to be adjusted incorrectly. Maybe a cron jobs run incorrectly.
It shifted the expiration date by one day.
Can you please look into this issue @Siropu

It has such a feature for affiliate ad types where the message is displayed at the bottom of the post but can create an ad like message too. You can also use the native XF's Advertising system to place a message like that in thread view or the notice system.

The expiration dates for individual ads in a package seem to be adjusted incorrectly.

Created from ACP or front-end? From ACP the expiration date is set based on the admin option "Guests' time zone" and in front-end based on the user actual timezone used in the profile settings.

I created all of them from acp.

I noticed promo threads were not expiring as they should. I tried to run the "Disable expired ads" cron manually and got this error:

Feature request:

A small text field in each ad (in the admin ad list) where you can add notes. e.g. tweaked something on a certain date so you can tell easily what changed when analysing stats.

1) I went to my add-ons list and clicked on support to ask you a question, it took me to your website, I tried to login and got an access forbidden and now it seems I'm blocked from siropu.com. I only attempted login once.

2) My question is: I have users that don't like navigating pages in threads. I use 15 messages per page. I explained I do this for advertising which helps support the site. The alternative option of either using an add-on to enable continuous scroll or setting a high message count per page but instead rotate ads on a timer so that ads will rotate. I looked through the settings and it appears your add-on does not support rotating ads on a timer such as every X minutes? Or am I missing something?

This is strange because I'm using XF's thread editor service.

Are you using VPN or something? Probably ModSecurity it has blocked the IP.

Or am I missing something?

If you are using a code or banner package and enable lazy loading with a refresh interval set, it will do just what you want.

 

[NealC]

No VPN. Thanks for the lazy load option, will review.

Edit: I'm using a banner ad with a placeholder of google ads. Doesn't appear to work with lazy loading.
