Should be in your email. It is underneath the download link sent to the email address that you used to order the product.

I cant seem to find your attachment.

In order to download attachments you need to enter your license key if you did not get it in the email I can pm it to you if you provide me the email address used to order.

Ive searched all over and there is no attachment. My attachments dont even show up on here either.

it tells me that my license key is invalid. It is called the "Your code(s) for Ad Seller Pro:"
thats the only license code that has been sent to me.

Yes that's it and your ready to go and use the ad locations.
Title: Re: Error with Screenshot
Post by: transientangler on March 13, 2011, 04:38:38 pm
Im stumped :( I have done what I think needs to be done in order to run the banners both top and bottom and nothing shows up.
1. I enabled the top banner and the bottom banner in the ad locations section.
2. I set the dimensions of the ad within this section
3. I then went to manage ads and added the banner I wanted to add by uploading it and set a start date and end date.

What else do I need to do here? Nothing seems to be showing up anywhere.

There must be some kind of box I havent clicked. Cause I have triple checked things. All of the basics appear to be done. I just dont get it. Am I supposed to take the code from 'get code' and stick this somewhere else? I used to use admanagemend mod and it is still in there but disabled. Should this be uninstalled or deleted first? What will happen to my left ad blocks that I have input coding through Tiny portal? How do these new blocks affect that?

is there supposed to be something done to the file permissions to get this to work? Im stumped. I spent the entire night trying to get my ads going and Im lost.

Check over the quick start guide and make sure those steps are followed
http://www.smfhacks.com/index.php/topic,4270.0.html

Also be careful with the start/end date try removing that in case.
If you check specific boards for your ads. The ads will only be shown on those boards. Use the check all boards options to display everywhere.

taking out the dates did actually get two ads to show up on the forum. They are in the boards on the top and bottom. But I cant get anything else to work. Allof the boxes are checked. the file I uploaded is a banner made for 728x90px and it only shows up within the boards. nothing in the threads, nothing on the main forum page. Im struggling here. Want to go get beer. haha

Post by: transientangler on March 13, 2011, 08:44:35 pm
yup. All the steps are done and everything is checked. I deleted the ads all except for one so there was no conflicting anything. The ad is small and it is only in two places. Shouldnt it go on every checked box area if it fits right?

Check that locations are enabled.
Check that membergroups have permissions for each ad location

Do you have specific boards checked in the ad location or the ad itself. If so it will only show in those boards. If no need to specific boards use "Show in all Boards" option for the ad location and the ad itself

hmm I only see ad location stats for the messageindex.template.php that I fixed the bottom ad location.

Can you attach your index.template.php boardindex.template.php and display.template want to check them out and see if the code is there or not.

Fixed files attached they were missing the ad seller pro code for some reason the package manager did not apply it to them.

Admin. Im having a real hard time with my site. I dont know if you might have had something to do with it when you were on there last night. I started a thread abou this on the SMF support forum and I cant figure out whats going on. This upgrade to SMF2.0 RC5 is a nightmare. Can you have a look at the thread. Im not sure if there was something that might have been affected by something you adjusted or not. Please help me figure this out if you can. :Z

Also the text ads will not align correctly. If I set them up to be centered they are always staying left aligned.

From what it looks like you need to reload your language files then clear the cache in the SMF admin area.
Also make sure your language under admin server settings is set to language
