    Guys and gals,

    As some of you know, I've picked up an IPB suite license and I'm starting to work on modifying it and adding custom touches. Well, it's basically still 'default' until my logos and custom icons are finished (should be within the next day or two) and then I'll have my new skin added and then I can work on other modifications.

    Well, one of the modifications or options to add would be an ad management tool/mod. Is there something already built into IPB for ad management or would I need a modification for that?

    I believe you'll need a modification for it.

    Why not use OpenX? It's free and hosted and would easily work with any forum software.

    I may be wrong, but I think he's inquiring about a modification that allows him to simply paste the code in the modification's settings (like RedTyger's vB ad management mod) as opposed to having to manually place the ad codes within the templates and whatnot.

    Nick, that's right. I'm looking for something built in where it makes things a bit easier for me to manage.

    I've found this for topics: Invision Power Services -> Download Manager -> Hooks and Plugins -> [cdx] Google Adsense ads in Topics v1.2

    And this for sidebars: Invision Power Services -> Download Manager -> Hooks and Plugins -> [cdx] Google Adsense in Sidebar

    But, I'm looking for a total solution. I think that I found one, but I have to research it a bit more and wait until the Gallery portion of the ad management is completed. This way, I can manage ads in the Boards, Blogs and Gallery products in one solution.

    Yeah, I found those mods as well. But, I also would like to find something that is easy as well, as the topic of my forum is Advertisement Forum lol. Just wondering if you have found anything other than those. I've added custom sidebar but I can't get it to work rigght.

    On a side note, this page ranks 3rd on Google for "free ad management mod ipb" without the quotes.
