Adsense by usergroup

[joe1989]

I encourage members to donate to my site, and one of the incentives I'd like to have for donating is the removal of ads on the site (or reduced ads).

I guess I would just create another usergroup, and then give that usergroup the option to remove ads...right?

How could I go about doing this?

You would have to surround your advertising templates with template conditionals..

<if condition="!is_member_of($bbuserinfo, X)">ad code here</if>

X should be the usergroup ID of the paying group.

That work with the new google adsense program integrated with 3.8?

You would have to edit the templates after deploying Adsense.

The Google Ads get deployed to these templates: ad_footer_start, ad_navbar_below and ad_showthread_firstpost_start (high package only).

Wayne: Will that code also work for secondary usergroups as well?

How would I go about using that for say two or three user groups that I don't want ads to show to but the rest do see them?

!is_member_of($bbuserinfo, X,Y,Z)

!is_member_of($bbuserinfo, X,Y,Z)

Thanks, I figured it out right after I posted my reply. One of those "Why didn't I try this before asking" moments.

Anyone?

Secondary groups would be...

...
in_array($bbuserinfo[membergroupids], array(9,10,11))
...
