I am using hooks to show ads on my forum but hooks are only for Board Index.

I just want to display vertical ads  160X600 on all pages except board index (as i am using hooks for board index)...please let me know if anybody come across it...

also please let me know if you have come across any mods....

thanks in advance

I'm not aware of a mod but you can do this with a template edit.

Open Admin CP > Look & Feel Tab > select skin > Global Templates > globalTemplate

Find:

   		 	{$items['adHeaderCode']}
   			 <if test="mainpageContent:|:$html">{$html}</if>
   			 {$items['adFooterCode']}

Replace With:

<div class='ipsLayout ipsLayout_withright ipsLayout_largeright clearfix'>
  	<div class='ipsLayout_content clearfix'>
   			 {$items['adHeaderCode']}
   			 <if test="mainpageContent:|:$html">{$html}</if>
   			 {$items['adFooterCode']}
  	</div>
  	<div class='ipsLayout_right'>
   	{ad code here}
  	</div>
</div>

Save. Will add a sidebar to all pages similar to the sidebar for an ad.

thanks a lot .... its working...


can you let me know how to display it only on the pages i need.... because on the board index i am using hooks...and i want to display it only on message view page and topics list page...

and also how to resize the width of the side bar...

thanks a lot for your help...

[Michael]

Try this instead. Uses a different style that should be smaller in width.

<if test="showOnTopic:|:ipsRegistry::$current_application == 'forums' AND ipsRegistry::$current_module == 'forums' AND ipsRegistry::$current_section == 'topics'">
<div class='ipsLayout ipsLayout_withright ipsLayout_smallright clearfix'>
		<div class='ipsLayout_content clearfix'>
					 	{$items['adHeaderCode']}
					 	<if test="mainpageContent:|:$html">{$html}</if>
					 	{$items['adFooterCode']}
		</div>
		<div class='ipsLayout_right'>
		{ad code here}
		</div>
</div>
<else />
					 	{$items['adHeaderCode']}
					 	<if test="mainpageContent:|:$html">{$html}</if>
					 	{$items['adFooterCode']}
</if>

its working exactly how i want.  but ads are only showing on Topic page... can i display on both topic list and topic view pages?

thanks for your time in helping me out.....

[Michael]

Sure, replace the top line with this instead.

<if test="showOnTopic:|:( ipsRegistry::$current_application == 'forums' AND ipsRegistry::$current_module == 'forums' AND ipsRegistry::$current_section == 'topics' ) OR (  ipsRegistry::$current_application == 'members' AND ipsRegistry::$current_module == 'messaging' AND ipsRegistry::$current_section == 'view' )">

hi again.....


can you let me know how to add ads on reply page?

[Michael]

<if test="showOnTopic:|:( ipsRegistry::$current_application == 'forums' AND ipsRegistry::$current_module == 'forums' AND ipsRegistry::$current_section == 'topics' ) OR (  ipsRegistry::$current_application == 'members' AND ipsRegistry::$current_module == 'messaging' AND ipsRegistry::$current_section == 'view' ) OR (  ipsRegistry::$current_application == 'forums' AND ipsRegistry::$current_module == 'post' AND ipsRegistry::$current_section == 'post' AND $this->request['do'] == 'reply_post' )">

Try this code, replacing the top line as before.
