Installation:like any other elgg plugin, unzip the file file and place it under the 'mod' directory.
This plugin over-writes /views/default/page/layouts/one_sidebar.php/ and displays the ad-content wherever elgg_view('page/elements/sidebar', $vars) is called.

Thanks shouvik for the Plugin...it works perfectly on version 1.8.0.1. Recommended. Are you thinking for a footer advertising plugin also.
Didn't work for me when i used amazon widgets. text works fne thoough. maybe i should use divs?
@dip: Get a view on my adsense plugin. For footer, header and sidebar. You can replace the code whatever u want in the code files, so that you can replace google adsense code with your own.
@stumpy: Are you using any TinyMCE or anysuch thing for the textbox? If so try to overcome that and paste your html code.
Can't wait to try it!! Great job!
i deactivated timy mce and thried it again, still no joy. what i'm trying to use is amazon widgets, they come in iframes. is that the issue maybe?
Aha ... iframe. Actually, HTMLawed strips the code.
Thank you very much for the appreciation, people!
@dip: The same procedure has to be repeated. Will do it soon.
ahhh ok, i will deactivate HTMLLawed, set the adverts plugin up and then reactivate HTMLawed and see if that works but i can't see it.
Thanks for the pluging, it's appreciated; i will recomend anyway as i'm sure it works.

stumpy
sorry to double post. Just so if anybody wants to use amazon widgets (iframes) if you deactivate HTMLawed before you enter and save your ad-code, it works...
thanks again for the pluging

stumpy
Thanks for posting the amazon problem, i have the same problem putting amazon code in blogs and and glad to know why! I am downloading this plug in now!
@Shouvik Mukherjee: really wonderful . u helped us to make some money too thanks a lot friend.
I also welcome the idea of Purus. Thank u purus.
@dinesh: Glad to hear that! A 'recommendation' also comes as a note of thank you. ;)
What format of code do I use to add my own banner and url to place my own add on the side area ? Newbie so jsut need some help with the format of code to put here. Got Amazon.co.uk working but would like to add more basic banners etc. thx
Any kind of easily available advert code should work actually, Andy. :)
How easy would it be to have the code and advert placed in the footer. Thanks
As easy as getting 213 recommendations, one per download. ^_^
Thanks top man
You Devs work so hard and what a great plug in this is. I do have one question, not sure if it can even be answered. I got the social dashbord elite, which puts a user profile on the activity page. The ad plugin wiped it out. Ideally, I would like to have both. Im not a dev, and sure appreciate all the hard work you guys do. Just wondered if there is a way, and if ad could be moved up or down? Thank you in advance.
Mikailah: This happens because both the plugins override the same file.
I haven't used the plugin you are refering to. But, maybe the following procedure could fix this up for you.
Put the social dashboard plugin below this one.
Put the following code where you'd want the adverts to appear.
This MIGHT fix it.
Thank you Shouvik, I gave it a try, but so far couldnt make the two work together. Im not a programmer, so maybe I didnt put it in the right place. Amazon widgets work great, just have to adjust the widget to fit the size of sidebar in the theme I am using-easy theme. Just lose th euser profile on side though.
It is a great plug in. Thanks. And thank you for your help.
Shouvik this is amazing! thank you so much!
one question though, when i paste my Adbrite code, it see it as..code. and not a add.
how do i fix this?
