Ads Manager 2 by Siropu [Paid] 2.6.2

@Siropu there's a conflicting bug with user group discounts. If the member is in two groups with a discount it is showing the lower discount. So say Premier Tier 1 25%, Premier Tier 2 50%, member is in both, when purchasing a package it shows 25% not 50%, until you remove that usergroup from the 25% group.

Suggestion: Can the discount please be checked by default when purchasing? I can imagine people not seeing it or forgetting to use it. Thanks.
Also the wording is awkward, if I have a Sticky for $5/week and they can buy up to 5 weeks, when they do, the discount area still says "1 week xx% discount." The math is correct but the wording makes it look like only one week is discounted. Perhaps remove the duration here, or, use the word "Per" as in "$5 per week discount" instead of "1 week discount $5."

On mobile (Pixel) when I'm on the Create ad page for users, I have to scroll right to see the Create ad buttons. At first I didn't see them. This is not ideal since it spills off the screen. You don't even know they are on the right, hidden.

I hope this can be expedited as it is affecting live sales so may need to disable. Thanks!

Hello @Siropu
Our marketing team requested we add a close button to the ads, just as the footer_fixed position has.
It seemed quite simple- just change the relevant macro in the siropu_ads_manager_ad_macros template

<xf:macro name="close_button" arg-position="">
    <xf:if is="$position">
        <a role="button" class="samCloseButton" data-xf-click="sam-close"><xf:fa icon="fas fa-times-square" /></a>
    </xf:if>
    ...

(basically make it appear in all positions)
Since I could not see the close button in all the positions- I tried adding position: relative; to the ad, but then- the ad views were not registered at all!
So I added an else condition with specific positions that the close button appeared well in them:

<xf:elseif is="$position == 'big_main_banner' OR $position == 'right_of_page_body' OR $position == 'left_of_page_body'" />
        <a role="button" class="samCloseButton" data-xf-click="sam-close" style="margin: 0; left: 0;">
            <xf:fa icon="fas fa-times-square" />
        </a>

This works. But I would still like the close button on other ads.
Did you notice this issue?

Thanks

I found a temporary workaround. I edited my discount order and it worked. So the first discount I had was the 25% and then I created the 50%. A member of both groups was only getting 25%. I edited the discounts and just swapped them by changing the discount fields so the 50% is the first one listed in acp. That fixed it for now. Looks like it has to do with the order they are listed.

When this is checked so approval is off:
☑ Ads do not require approval

Members still see this wording on the package page:
Please note that ads are reviewed by administrators and require their approval. Once approved, an invoice will be generated for you to pay.

Hello @Siropu
is the column daily_view_limit not used?
I could not find where it is set.

Suggestion:
Can the widget that shows promo threads and stickies please let us choose one, the other, or both? This way we can have dedicated widgets. I'm not sure I even want one for stickies, but I do want one for promos. Thanks!

Suggestion:
In Advertiser options, option for threads and stickies (individually) to be added to XF's Featured list. Since XF has featured threads now, it would be great to be able to add promo threads and stickies to the Featured section. It's actually confusing since your widget is called Featured threads. I edited the widget title, but the main suggestion is to be able to actually feature them using XF's core. I can see it in the overall setting and per promo and sticky where we could add a fee like stickies for promo threads, but just having the setting overall would be great, as I probably would not charge extra. Thanks!

Why do promo threads have 0 stats even after a few days, when the threads have views and replies? And are the advertisers seeing these stats and thinking they are correct? Or do you not show these to advertisers, only banner stats?

When someone purchases a promo thread that is manually approved a start date is not listed FYI:
