XF 2.0 Template Conditional for Thread ID

[MickkD]

Hello All,

I am looking for a template conditional to allow me to stop Adsense being shown on specific threads.

I tried this in the adverts section.

<xf:if is="!in_array($threadId, [43100,44517,38327,39024,45687])">
ADSENSE CODE
</xf:if>

Does anyone know the conditional for an array of thread id's

Thank you very much.

Mick

Change $threadId to $post.thread_id or $thread.thread_id, depending on where your ad is located

I use the advertising sections.

I don't use it in the templates themselves.

I can't get either codes to work unfortunately

Thanks for your help.

Where is the advertising section and where is your ad displayed?

 

[MickkD]

Under settings in the first admin menu.

Admin / settings / advertising

Thanks

 

[S Thomas]

Yea, there is a field "HTML", you can use XF template syntax there. I'm assuming you're showing your ad within a post, so that should work. Otherwise, please post your ad config.

<xf:if is="!in_array($post.thread_id, [43100,44517,38327,39024,45687])">
<script async src="//pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js"></script>
<!-- Xen Footer -->
<ins class="adsbygoogle"
     style="display:block"
     data-ad-client="ca-pub-*************"
     data-ad-slot="4534646553"
     data-ad-format="auto"></ins>
<script>
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});
</script>
    TEST
</xf:if>

This is the code I am using, I put in the TEST after the google code just to be sure that I don't see it on the threads that correspond to the array...

But its still showing the TEST and the advert, I also tried $thread

Thank you.

Did you set it up like this?

Spoiler

 

[MickkD]

Yes I believe so, but for the footer advert

Thank you

 

[S Thomas]

What did you take for Position:
?

 

[MickkD]

It's footer, so I guess that will be why it's not working as I will need s kind of global.thread_id condition

 

[S Thomas]

There is no position "footer" for me. Are you using some kind of addon which adds additional positions? Otherwise, please just screenshot the Position: line. Or try this one:

<xf:if is="{$__globals.controller} !== 'XF:Thread' OR !in_array({$__globals.contentKey}, ['thread-43100', 'thread-44517', 'thread-38327', 'thread-39024', 'thread-45687']
)">
<script async src="//pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js"></script>
<!-- Xen Footer -->
<ins class="adsbygoogle"
     style="display:block"
     data-ad-client="ca-pub-*************"
     data-ad-slot="4534646553"
     data-ad-format="auto"></ins>
<script>
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});
</script>
</xf:if>

It was this area:

Container breadcrumb (bottom): Above
Inside the page container, directly above the bottom breadcrumb on every page.

And thank you very much!!!

The condition worked a treat, now I can action any URLS that Adsense have an issue with and block them...

I'm looking to pass the thread ID back to Ad Manager so we can control ad line items and orders from GAM use targeting.

How do I simply obtain the thread ID so I can put it in the ad tag in the advertising system like so:

setTargeting('forum-thread', ['{$threadId}']).

How do I call the thread ID from Page_container?

Is it something like this?
$__globals.contentKey.xxxxxxx
