I upgraded to the latest version and noticed that my adsense revenue went from around $15-20 per day to $5-7. After the update I edited the templates again and put the ad code back on...in fact I even put in more ads in places where I never had ads. What is going on??? Does this have something to do with the adsense integration that is now included with vbulletin??? I don't use that feature and all my ads are added manually to the appropriate templates.

You have to go into the member's area and sign up for the adsense integration, otherwise your installation of vBulletin won't have it. So no, it wouldn't have anything to do with that.No...No...Meester vBulletin, he no work right. -
I don't see any way this can be pinned on vB. I also upgraded, do not use the built-in adsense feature and my revenue has remained steady or even gone up a bit.Steve Machol, former vBulletin Customer Support Manager (and NOT retired!)

I should say that before I upgraded I did download the version already with adsense integration. Would that have something to do with it? My indexed page count on google hasn't decreased, my traffic didn't change, I have more ads on my site then before, yet my adsense dropped by ~75% What could it be???Comment

You said you are not using the builti-n adsense integration and unless you have fully signed up for this in the Members Area and in Google Adsense, you have not downloaded the adsense version.
Even if you were, I don't see how this could be vB's fault.Steve Machol, former vBulletin Customer Support Manager (and NOT retired!)

I did fully sign up for this in the members area, but in my Advertising config I selected "No Google AdSense Ads". I cant' figure this one out. Could it be somethign with the publishers ID? I did use my own though. Any ideas what could be causing this?Comment

The only idea I gave is that people are clicking on fewer ads. Why that is I have no idea.Steve Machol, former vBulletin Customer Support Manager (and NOT retired!)

Anybody has any ideas??? The day after the vbulletin upgrade this started happening. Did the upgrade 'offend' the gods at google ???
This is how it used to be
Impressions: 25,666
Clicks 53
Page CTR 0.21%
Page eCPM $0.72
Earnings $18.46
and this is how it is now
For Example, the other day
Impressions: 29,731
Clicks 56
Page CTR 0.19%
Page eCPM $0.23
Earnings $6.90
What is going on here ??? I've spent a lot of time to build up to where I was so this is extremely discouraging.Comment

That is not something we would have any knowledge of. You need to contact Google Adsense.Steve Machol, former vBulletin Customer Support Manager (and NOT retired!)
