Geek Advertising Banner System
Features
This system is designed to manage static banners, flash banners, rotating image banners, text ads (i.e., Google Adsense), and even butter your freaking toast when you feel like it. Okay, not butter your toast, but there is a detailed readme file that comes with the package.GAB Key Features- Track ad impressions and clickthroughs
- Set start and expiration dates for ads
- Show ads to specific usergroups
- Allow specific usergroups to turn off ads
- Use image, Flash, text/HTML (e.g., Google Adsense)
Issues
Yeah, yeah, not 100% phrased. Also, new installs of old versions required the following action (because for some odd reason, not doing so could cause an error): After a fresh installation, make sure you save your MASTER script (AdminCP -> GAB Manager -> Scripts -> MASTER -> Save). Nothing was obvious as to the cause of that problem, but if you happen to experience it, save your MASTER script and report the problem.
Installation- Copy the files included with this package into their corresponding folders on your server, overwriting existing files.
- Import the product-gab.xml file via the ACP (AdminCP -> Plugins & Products -> Manage Products -> Add/Import Product).
- Make sure to CHMOD the /geek/gab/images directory so that it has 777 permissions so that you are able to upload banners.

New GAL version is here! |
|
Jan 21, 2008 - 12:26 AM - by Morgan

Well folks, the new version of GAL is here. No worse the wear on this end, save those all-nighters. 
Features
Auto-link keywords. Change keyword category, dictionary, status, and more from one AdminCP page. Filter by category. Choose templates and regular expressions to use. Lots of permissions. Statistics for tracking impressions and clickthroughs. Works with GARS. More.
Click here to see how it looks in posts. Click here to see the front-end script.
Issues
Non-post items may not auto-link. Ajax quick replies may not auto-link. Non-post auto-links experimental and done on the fly. For posts, you can Rebuild Post Cache but it is intensive. Do not go overboard. Lack of documentation. Not 100% phrased.
Installation- Copy the files included with this package into the corresponding directories on your server. Overwrite existing GAL files. Make sure that the contents in /forums/images gets copied into each of your style's images directory.
- Upload the product-gal.xml file via the vB AdminCP product manager. This will install the required database tables, templates, plugins, phrases, etcetera.
- Make sure that the /geek/gal/images directory is CHMOD to 0777 for uploading images.
- Give your AdminCP a hard refresh (e.g., Ctrl-F5) if you do not see the side menu after installation. Go to the vB AdminCP -> Geek Auto-Linker -> Settings and fill in the options.
- Click through all the GAL AdminCP pages to familiarize yourself with the options and settings. Note that dictionaries have permissions, categories have permissions, and there are more permissions to be found by following the Permissions link in the side menu.
- Add the following CSS declarations to your vB AdminCP style CSS settings (Styles & Templates -> Stye Manager -> Main CSS -> Scroll to the bottom of the page -> Add the following in the lower Additional CSS Definitions box):
Code:
/* GAL Defns */
a.gal:link
{
text-decoration: none;
border-bottom: 1px dotted #016798;
color: #016798;
padding: 0 0 0 12px;
background: url(images/misc/exlinkon.gif) no-repeat 0;
}
a.gal:visited
{
text-decoration: none;
border-bottom: 1px dotted #016798;
color: #016798;
padding: 0 0 0 12px;
background: url(images/misc/exlinkon.gif) no-repeat 0;
}
a.gal:hover, a.gal:active
{
text-decoration: underline;
border-bottom: 0px dotted #F8BF24;
color: #016798;
padding: 0 0 0 12px;
background: url(images/misc/exlink.gif) no-repeat 0;
}
- Note that any "word" character (\w), apostrophe ('), and dash (-) are allowed in keywords.
- Do not allow just anyone to use HTML! You do not want someone wreaking unnecessary havoc.
- Choose keywords wisely. Make meaningful selections. Do not auto-link common words. It is undue overhead.
- If you wish to use GARS and GAL together, you will need to grab the GARS package and FTP the /geek/gars/includes/gars_class_edit.php file.
