I run the smf ads mod, and after changing my board round a little bit, nobody can see see the ads that I have put up anymore.
I have checked through tonnes of permissions and board properties, but cannot find the source of the problem. Weirdly enough, administrators, moderators and other groups can see the ads...
I would really like some suggestions, since I have paying advertisers on the forum!!! The forum is on smf 1.1.5 and runs the theme Musiconica.
I know there's an option with the ad management mod in permissions saying "enable ads" for certain membergroups, BUT I CAN'T SEE IT! What the hell? Is it because I'm on 1.1.5? God I hate this.
Did you edit your custom theme so the ads show..?
Hey.
The problem had to do with an error in the install.xml instructions that you guys provided. The last instruction in the .xml file is:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
<file name="$sourcedir/ManagePermissions.php">
<operation>
<search position="replace"><![CDATA[ 'pm' => array(]]>
</search>
<add><![CDATA[ 'ad_manage' => array(
'ad_manageperm' => false,
),
'pm' => array(]]>
</add>
</operation>
</file>
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now you see how is tells you to find the line of code: 'pm' => array(]]>. Well there's no such thing in ManagePermissions.php. It's actually: 'pm' => array(
When you find that you need to replace it with: 'ad_manage' => array(
'ad_manageperm' => false,
),
'pm' => array(
The "]]>" at the end of array never existed.
Once I corrected this it worked completely. Make sure that you fix it so that everyone can get it right :)
