Flarum Ads for 1.0

Braden

Debaucus have you installed it yet? I had a different idea, if the html code can display in between the discussion, could we use a spoiler? e.g the flarum one by inserting [details title="Header Title"] ad message hidden text [/details] and maybe it can be simple. What do you think about that? Can this way work?

AdSense

it is showing the ads for one time only when opening the homepage and when I open any discussion and comes back to the homepage it doesn't show any ad anywhere.

xasharma I know, it does not work well with Adsense, it's on the list if issues... And I couldn't figure out how to fix it.

This has been this way ok the original extension. If someone has any idea how to make it work, let me know!

matteocontrini This is excellent, thanks for sharing!

I made it work on my local installation but for some reason it is not loading the Google .js on my browser on the online version... I need one or two volunteers to try the dev version online!

composer require malago/flarum-ads:dev-main

Thanks 😄

malago I haven't followed the discussion, but take a look at what I did here. You can execute the JavaScript code in the injected HTML and do that only once. (It only works for ads between posts for now, I'm not using sidebar ads so I didn't implement it.)

More or less cross-posting.

Discussion in a seperate thread is offering a possible bounty to resolve the Ad in relation to what I think is Google Adsense.

Why it's in a seperate thread I don't know.

Debaucus @matteocontrini have posted a solution, so need only to be implemented, we need to give some times to malago maybe

Actually I have no connection 😓waiting a fix from my provider but sure when I’m back I will try 🙂

I have tried each types of ads ... but i feel that Display ads are working better.

Good jobs @malago
I test in some weeks when my small community go live.

For future updates maybe a good idea some steps:

Working with roles to avoid the Ads for some users groups. Example: Premium members.
Some more places to add advertisements

Debaucus

Suggestion:

Ability to add Auto-Ad code the the Header for Google Adsense.

Debaucus there ianm extension for this

malago

After trying it for a few days I made the decision to push the fix to a new version. Version 0.3.2 adds a fix for the Adsense issue. I hope it works!

Braden

malago Good work!

malago what was the issue?

In my forum ... it shows the ads only 1 time.

Let's take an example for the understanding - You are at the homepage of a forum and the ad should be visible under the header and under the tags (It barely shows header and footer ads on desktop... On mobile, it's better than the desktop). But it shows the ads only 1 or 2 times after that if we want to view the ads again we have to reload the page.

And Now assume you opened a discussion and the ads should be after every 5 posts.
So the problem with AdSense that it doesn't show any ads and it shows ads after refreshing the page 1-2 times and the same on mobile.

And the second problem is that ... it shows the ads only 1 time 😅. I mean if you go back from that discussion and opened another one so it will not show any ad anywhere(header + under the tags+ between the posts) . We have to again reload the page 1-2 times to see the ads again. (Same with the mobile but better than desktop)

I have tried simple banner test ads from some other networks .. they worked. It showed ads every ad and every time without any reload
But then I tried google test ads from here - https://developers.google.com/publisher-tag/samples/display-test-ad ... It didn't work for me. It just makes space and sometimes it will show an ad.

Maybe Adsense has some problem with SPA ?

Is it possible to add the word "Advertisement" On top of each ad?

xasharma

Braden

Like this ??

<center><div><h6>ADVERTISEMENT</h6></div>

Your Ad code
  
</center>

Please, someone Review this is correct or not

Braden

xasharma Good try! But if i place that before <script> it displays at the bottom

It would have been nice if its at the top maybe inside ad div

xasharma

Braden

For mobile -

are you using auto ad code ??

Braden
