Hey all,

Im using phpadsnew to generate ads on my site. It displays the 88*31 mini buttons and im hell bent on trying to get it to work, but the code only displays one link at a time - and I want it to display 5! Can anybody help me on this one?

Code generated is:

<script language='JavaScript' type='text/javascript'>
<!--
   if (!document.phpAds_used) document.phpAds_used = ',';
   phpAds_random = new String (Math.random()); phpAds_random = phpAds_random.substring(2,11);
   
   document.write ("<" + "script language='JavaScript' type='text/javascript' src='");
   document.write ("http://www.thenet2k.com/phpads/adjs.php?n=" + phpAds_random);
   document.write ("&amp;what=zone:2");
   document.write ("&amp;exclude=" + document.phpAds_used);
   if (document.referer)
      document.write ("&amp;referer=" + escape(document.referer));
   document.write ("'><" + "/script>");
//-->
</script><noscript><a href='http://www.thenet2k.com/phpads/adclick.php?n=a6801692' target='_blank'><img src='http://www.thenet2k.com/phpads/adview.php?what=zone:2&amp;n=a6801692' border='0' alt=''></a></noscript>

Hope someone here can help because the support for phpadsnew is terrible!

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

Thats the code in PHP, again one at a time but maybe someone can get it to display a random 5 at a time with the help of this code?

Help needed BADLY!

The php script you posted has an include to another file in the phpads directory called phpadsnew.inc.php. Can you post whats in that file? The script you posted doesnt control the number that shows up.

OK here is whats in it:

	if (($phpAds_config['log_adviews'] && !$phpAds_config['log_beacon']) || $phpAds_config['acl'])
	{
  require (phpAds_path."/libraries/lib-remotehost.inc.php");

	// Prevent duplicate includes
	define ('PHPADSNEW_INCLUDED', true);
}

?>

Hope you can help. Cheers

lol, i still dont see anywhere you can change it. There seems to be a lot of files for such a simple task... How does the software work? Does it run off a database?

[sully]

Ya it runs of MySQL. Its a very advanced script, dunno how it works as such. You got MSN? We could take about it on it if you like!

[sully]

Still no look. Support for PHPAds doesnt work either.

:/ Guess I have to use another script to do affiliates lol.

- Sully

[sully]

Well I still cant get the heap of crap to work.

Can anyone suggest a good script to manage affiliates? Free of course ;P

Check in the php tutorials forum, I posted a tutorial on how to make your own.
