why these lines of code are showing in the installation:
0) { //declare session variables and assign them $_SESSION['username'] = $username; $GoTo = $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'].”?page=message&m=7″; header(sprintf(”Location: %s”, $GoTo)); } else { //Set the error messag to be displayed and set a session for invalid pass $GoTo = $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'].”?page=message&m=8″; header(sprintf(”Location: %s”, $GoTo)); }

URL file-access must be enable in your php.ini file for this script to work properly.

@Stephen Blair
mmmmm, they don’t want to enable it so i’ve to look for a other ad script. I think this was wat i was looking for.
April 13th, 2009 on 9:10 am
I’m very sorry to hear that. This script was designed so that it could be installed in a single location and your ads can be served up from anywhere regardless of where the actual installation lives. There is a work around for this and that would be to change the “$path_to_admanager” variable in your include/config.php file. The script is initially setup to use the full URL, but you should be able to change the value of the variable to the relative folder path. For example if you are trying to display your ads on your home page you would leave just the “admanagerlight” for the $path_to_admanager variable and this would point it into the “/admanager/display/” folder. The only problem with this work around is that either your ads are going to display properly on your home page and not in the admin or vise versa because you would now being using a relative folder path and it will not be the same for the admin pages as it is for where you are displaying your ads. Sorry this is a little confusing, but hopefully it will help you out a little bit.

Hi, i’ve just uploaded and installed AdManagerLight on my server, and everything seems to work fine. I have created a category and a sample advert, and i’ve previewed the advert to make sure it works fine.
The problem now is that, i want to link my web pages to display this advert and other subsequent ones i will be creating. Is there a line of code i’m supposed to insert into my webpages or what?
Please reply. Thanks

Yes, If you click on the Manage Categories menu item and then click on one of your categories, it will give you the code that needs to be inserted in order to display the ads in that category.

Installed the script and works great.
I’m trying to display 6 ads randomised in 3 ad spots, all below each other. The script seems to allow the same ad to be displayed more than once on each page load, which obviously isn’t preferable
Is there a fix for this?
Many thanks!
April 14th, 2009 on 4:06 pm
There isn’t really a fix to this as much as there is a work-around to achieve what you are looking for. You would have to setup 3 different categories with different ads in them and the put each categories unique code on that page. Hopefully taht will work for what you are trying to do.

So I am trying to understand the category thing here. I want to have a banner on the side of my page (say 120×600). I want to server AdSense ads, as well as a JPG ad of my own in rotation.
I want to do the same thing on the bottom of my page. I have done that here: http://www.—————.com/forum/index.php
But now that i created 2 ads for 1 category, nothing shows up at the bottom…?
Can you help me understand how to fix this?

AdManager cannot server up adsense code, the scripting for the adsense code breaks it and none of the images in that category will work.
May 1st, 2009 on 8:38 am
I actually found that 2 Image ads work together, but an image and Google Ad Sense did not seem to work together. Here is the ad sense I was trying to insert:
<script type=”text/javascript”><!–
google_ad_client = “pub-6039064110724688″;
/* 728×90, created 4/30/09 */
google_ad_slot = “7376609978″;
google_ad_width = 728;
google_ad_height = 90;
//–>
</script>
<script type=”text/javascript”
src=”http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js”>
</script>

Hi Stephen,
This work around doesn’t work for me either, it appears that unless you can edit the php.ini to enable the remote access you are stuffed. I have read something about curl but don’t know how to modify your code to try to get it to work. Shame really as your script would look to be just what I wanted.
June 2nd, 2009 on 7:57 am
@PeteD
Curl isn’t necessary. All you should have to do is modify the $path_to_admanager in the config.php file to be a local path instead of a url.
For example: If your installation is located at http://yourdomain.com/admanager/, but your ads are being displayed on http://yourdomain.com/somefolder/index.php, your $path_to_admanager would be “../admanager”.
Of course this limits where you can use the script and display ads on your site versus having the full url you can display ads anywhere.

This looks like a very useful script but unfortunately the download link (WordPress plugin I’m guessing) isn’t working.
June 26th, 2009 on 3:19 am
Nevermind, I found the Google cached version of your website and got the link.
June 26th, 2009 on 9:34 am
Cool, glad you were able to get it. The plugin should be working now, but let me know if you have any other problems. Thanks for pointing this out!
