Instructions/Upgrading/Installing
Read the readme file.

My Advertisements doesn't perform template edits when you add a new zone.
Template edits must be done by yourself.
However, My Advertisements performs 4 edits on activation:
- Header
- Footer
- Postbit
- Postbit Classic

Somtimes it may fail to log clicks but it should log them more than 90% of the times someone clicks the advertisement.

----- Instructions
Upload contents of the Upload folder to the root of your MyBB installation.
Go to Admin CP -> Configuration -> Plugins and Activate "My Advertisements"
Then go to Settings -> My Advertisements and change anything you need.

Make sure you ACTIVATE the My Advertisements task from the Admin CP too! - IMPORTANT -

So to me sounds like i have to do template edits.
I have done everything that is stated above.

I can't even get help on it because i need to be a premium to reply to threads on the MyBB plugin forum.

:/ Anything similar then?

Ive fixed it.

But now i need to add a BBcode so the Image redirects to the URL

I have this.

<img src="http://i51.tinypic.com/jq6alz.gif" /><url=http://www.wickedpenman.tikolah.com/</url>

Not working though just shows the image in the footer.

Oscar you are 50% wrong. BBCode will not work when editing templates, only HTML will.

<a href="link"><img src="imagelink"></a>

Should do it. If it doesn't, could you please post your footer code.

So death? 😉

The fact remains that BBCode won't work.

As for the image redirecting to the URL. What you are describing is a Hyperlink, in which I included in the last post. So when you click the image it directs you to the link of your choice.

Hi, I was wondering how you managed to get this working on your forum? I am in need of advertisements at the moment and I am currently using My Advertisements only I am having problems getting the advertisements to show, when I add a new advertisement nothing shows and when I add the code that it states to add where you want your advertisement to be placed all I get is

{myadvertisements[zone_1]}

where I add it into my template. I have checked all the instructions to ensure I am doing everything right and I have taken a look at the support forum for it on his website but nothing seems to be helping, not willing to pay just for support on this one mod.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Try starting a new topic instead of thread-hijacking. You'll need to add new HTML edits manually I think as the mod doesn't auto update itself.

Only thought I would post in here as I had searched for this specifically and rather than starting a new thread I would politely ask if he could help, no harm done.
