Anyone using phpadsnew?

[Dean C]

Funnily enough i've just installed it for a client y'day. After a bit of terminology help from SaintDog and reading the documentation i think it's a good system. Too complicated though

For those interested, PhpAdsNew v2 RC3 has been released, and it fixes a remote invocation vulnerability for all previous versions since March 2002:

I wanted to install it. Is it worth?

I've been using it for some months now, and love it...always wondered about the different sized banners though...thanks for the tip.

Defenitely worth it. My clients love it, and so do I.

First, I would like to thank you for sharing it with us. I have few questions below. I would greatly appreciate it if you can point me to the right direction. Thanks in advance. (Sorry for the newbie question. )

I got phpadsnew working last night. Just wanted to post this info for anyone else who is also trying to figure this out.

Using the local invocation code generated by phpadsnew:

<?php
if (@include('C:/../../phpadsnew/phpadsnew.inc.php')) {
if (!isset($phpAds_context)) $phpAds_context = array();
$phpAds_raw = view_raw ('', 2, '', '', '0', $phpAds_context);
echo $phpAds_raw['html'];
}
?>

Where do I put the codes above?

Placed the following in the phpinclude template.

require("C:/../../phpadsnew/phpadsnew.inc.php");
if (!isset($phpAds_context)) $phpAds_context = array();
$phpAds_raw = view_raw ('', 0, '', '', '0', $phpAds_context);
$variable_name = $phpAds_raw['html'];

[B]I found two (2) phpinclude code templates. One is phpinclude_start and the other is phpinclude_end. Which one do I need to add the codes above to?

$variable_name

Also, use whatever name you want for $variable_name, but the $ is needed at the front.

And one last newbie question, if I would like to have the banner to show up on every single page (at top right hand corner) on the forum, where do I need to add to codes above to? Does it matter where I put the variable code in the template?

Thanks again.

After adding the codes to the phpinclude_start template, I now run into the error below. Any clues? Once again, thanks for the help.

Warning: Unable to access /phpadsnew/phpadsnew.inc.php in /home/virtual/site22/fst/var/www/html/forum/global.php(345) : eval()'d code on line 6

Tuan Le,

Please do not keep posting this same thing in multiple threads. Either stick to one thread for help with this or start a new thread.

I am having some bad problems...

For some reason, whenever I try to put $phpAds_raw['html'] in the Header it comes up as an error.

 
The following error occurred when attempting to evaluate this template:
[i]
[b]Parse error[/b]: parse error, unexpected T_ENCAPSED_AND_WHITESPACE, expecting T_STRING or T_VARIABLE or T_NUM_STRING in [b]/home/woforums/public_html/includes/adminfunctions_template.php(3055) : eval()'d code[/b] on line [b]1[/b]
[/i]
This is likely caused by a malformed conditional statement. It is highly recommended that you fix this error before continuing, but you may continue as-is if you wish.

I just can't get this thing working!

Im on the same boat, this is the error that Im getting:

The following error occurred when attempting to evaluate the template 'header':

Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_ENCAPSED_AND_WHITESPACE, expecting T_STRING or T_VARIABLE or T_NUM_STRING in /home/.sites/48/site10/web/foros/includes/adminfunctions_template.php(3055) : eval()'d code on line 13

This is likely caused by a malformed conditional statement.




With this code:

<?php
if (@include(getenv('DOCUMENT_ROOT').'/adserver/phpadsnew.inc.php')) {
if (!isset($phpAds_context)) $phpAds_context = array();
$phpAds_raw = view_raw ('', 0, '', '', '0', $phpAds_context);
echo $phpAds_raw['html'];
}
?>


I tried adding the java code too and gives me an error too....

Any help will be appreciated!

1. we dont provide support for any external code here. You should try asking at vBulletin.org
2. You are inside of a template that is parsed purly as php, and you dont need to have <?php or ?>

Or possibly you could just use the regular javascript/iframe HTML code
