  1. Thanks @Mike John, the above worked great.

    I'm planning to roll more of my own video content, however this past week I have been heavily focusing on studying my sites SEO. I wasn't able to actually find any of the video content when searching for it, they all appeared on pages [3] and after - whereas any content I placed inside articles ranked much better being usually found in Google on the first page (commonly positioned [1] to [5] on the opening search page).

    I know I've suggested a fair amount of requests for this but please can we get an update which includes meta? (Keywords/Description).

    This should really had extra benefits to the application since it will allow for better SEO. :)

    @Joey_M, what's the issue with it? The version Peter released didn't fix the issue (if they're the same)?

    It's weird, it resolved things for awhile but then it returned.

    However the duplicated issue with display pictures is down to mobile sessions, at least it would seem so. Every time I went on my site to pull a picture for Instagram - upon looking at this plugin there would be two of me shown.

    Peter has made the plugin restricted only to show x amount, as before it would show too many or fewer than I added.

    Pretty much the same as @Simon Woods.

    I have had both of these issues. I just used the Support tool to clear the cache and fix a database issue, and now the first issue is not appearing for me, although that might be temporary.

    Not helped me I'm afraid.

    I clear my sites cache a lot and I never see any difference with this plugin, it's a shame because I really want to use it but I'm now considering removing it. Hopefully @Adriano Faria may take another look into it.

    I'm sure there are some IPS based bugs effecting some but none of that seems to be the case for me and a few others who remain in the background these days.

  4. Still hoping that the bugs may be looked into.

    Duplicated display pictures (caused by mobile visits?)
    Limited number of display pictures shown (set 30, 20 show or 17) very odd.

    Hopefully this will receive some attention like the awards mod has, otherwise this will have died a death IMO. :(

    You can put in the block as many ads as you want.

    Yes, this works well for what I wanted to do.

    I'm not sure if this is cache or something but at times the first ad inside a block shows on mobiles despite being set for desktop only.

    The triggers a bit hit and miss, so it's kinda random.

    This is the same block, but then this happens.

    I've noticed when this happens, the menu tab doesn't work on the page effected. Not sure if this is helpful info? But i tought I'd just pointing this out.

    Added already (version 1.0.4)

    No. I added select box not code boxes for devices.

    This will require people to have two ads though, perhaps even three.

    I will be putting them in blocks, so I'd require two.

    -Edit-

    Is there a way I may be able to use 1 block but two ad units? (would placing both codes work?) I guess I can try.

    You mean html ads?

    Yes, sorry - I should make a note to check that I'm being clear enough.

    'Show On' - is this what you plan to add? Would it be possible to replicate what the banner element does?advert2.thumb.png.35ff9ff1fdb43caf294077deff08962b.png

    Instead of 'upload smaller versions'. Supply mobile and tablet code.

    I asked on PM and you told me "one replaced advert for all adverts" :)

    Lack of being clear and probably rushing on my behalf, sorry about this also Newbie. I should have said this but I honestly don't recall. :(

    Have you seen how the app works?

    Sorry, I'm in the process of settings things up and I find it a little confusing.

    6 hours ago, newbie LAC said:

    It does not depend on image or html. It check css selectors.

    You can use 

    
    <img src="ad.png" class="protect_this_image">

    Or 

    
    <div class="protect_this_div">Some text</div>

    Then add css selectors .protect_this_image and .protect_this_div

    Ads are not protected until code is added? Where would I add the code?

    6 hours ago, newbie LAC said:

    What to add?

    The alternative advert code.

    To my understanding currently there is only one available, I think it would be better defined by each advertisement.

    No

    I have some in-house advertisers about to come on board, they will be paying for impressions and if people click this would limit that amount. Would you be able to look into making it HTML only that is protected by the click counter?

    17 hours ago, newbie LAC said:

    What to add and where?

    Somewhere inside the Advertisement configuration page would be awesome.

    advert.thumb.png.8d8f0a21f610c5bc6fb9da759827fcc6.png

    Inside here would allow for greater control, allowing for more customization with the ads. I can replace ads for like for like, so a in-house banner could be shown when a HTML ad unit is under the click limit.

    PS. Would it also be possible to add a setting for a mobile/responsive HTML advert?

    Adsense have done a way with their responsive banner adverts, the link version is very uninspiring (almost as poorly designed as Media.net's). If I could add a smaller banner designed for mobiles, I could have a banner showing instead just links.

  10. @newbie LAC: I'm just starting out with using this.

    The click protection can you confirm it only applies to HTML ads? (I'd hate any banner advertisements to lose out on impressions).

    May I also purpose that the option to show an alternative advert once a HTML ad has been clicked to many times is relocated inside the ad options itself? This would allow us to define separate replacements.

    Example - I will be using Amazon Affiliates, so once Adsense an IP triggers to many HTML clicks, I could then display a banner or alternative code that the click protection isn't applied too.

  11. There's no icon Newbie? (Is this supposed to happen?)

    ads.png.9b1583296afaa7484d9643d77347724c.png

    Does the click protection only work for HTML codes?

    Say I wanted to show a banner instead of say Adsense, how would I call one of my banner advertisements to display when someone has clicked to many times?

  12. Have you saved any template changes at all?

    In the 3.4 versions sometimes updates didn't appear due to me editing the template, I simply had to revert to the default and re-add the changes made prior. If you haven't, it looks like you may need to wait for Newbie.

    I have just now done that for admin group but still cannot see any way to update the tables

    There should be a icon located next to when the table was last updated.

    Header, top right.

    Table last updated: January 24

    Uninstalling and re-installing didn't help.

    Using IPS Community Suite 4.1.17.1

    UnInstalling unfortunately won't resolve the issue, its a bug.

    Also, is the admin console the only area from which somebody can add and edit team and player data? I see that one can add fixtures from the end user interface. But I don't see the ability to add teams and player data. Is that the case or is it just my installation that isn't working? I would like delegate work to other people without having to provide them with access to the admin console.  Thanks again.

    I believe it is the only location.

    Perhaps a suggestion? I would love to see the front end able to update the team data etc (in fact all areas).

    Newbie's very accommodating towards features and suggestions, if they approve the app and benefit those who have purchased - I'm nearly 97% certain he would consider adding them. I'm pleased to see others using this!

    It would be great if you could import a feed of video content into Videos, so for example you could import the latest film and movie trailers from Apple via their RSS feed or perhaps from a YouTube, Twitch or Vimeo channel feed.

    I have suggested this, I believe Mike plans to release it within the next major version.

    This probably isn't applicable to all sites but I'd like to see a top forums leaderboard. On our site we have a forum for every TV show and it would be fun to see that community vs community race.

    This is probably best as a plugin (if it's possible).

    I'd highly recommend you requested.

    Another issue I've seen is that there's one area on our site that's particularly like-happy and also insular and my leaderboard member are basically the same everyday. It would be nice to have some exclusions (ignore these forums) but I'm guessing that's a lot of work and server processes for an edge case.

    As for me,  I would like to have an option to choose which forums (and thus topics) can be excluded from the Leaderboard.


    I'd love to see this implemented!

    ----

    Also, I think the leaderboard should be a widget! I've seen this suggested more times than I have had chicken dinners. :p

  17. I think the leaderboard is a fantastic addition to PS, used in the right way it would promote fun engagements.

    I have some further ideas which I feel would make it better.

    • Notify members that they have lead (Daily/Monthly)

    One thing is within many communities I am sure most are unaware of the feature, to promote the fun engagement and to encourage activity it would be nice to see members being told automatically.

    • I'd like to see team members and members separated, create more friendly competition but IMO, team members within sites are always likely to lead. Just look at IPS, it's mostly staff members or popular developers, this cuts so many people who make great efforts. Within my own community, it's usually always me or one of my team members and I think it would be nice to split it up.

    I have some other suggestions, however these are the main areas. I'd love to see other clients make suggestions!
