Icy Phoenix

Ads & Sponsors Guide
You will find this feature in Icy Phoenix 1.2.18.45 Beta 1 and future versions.

No doubt you have noticed the new Ads & Sponsors feature in the latest version of Icy Phoenix. You've also probably noticed the new ads [Ads] block in the CMS. These two are not to be confused as they are two separate entities. This guide will help to describe how you can work with the Ads & Sponsors feature.

1. First, head to your CMS menu and click the Ads & Sponsors link under Settings on the left.
   
   From this menu, you'll see the following positions to place your ads:
   
   
   • Global Top
     
   • Global Bottom
     
   • Global Header
     
   • Global Footer
     
   • Forum Index Element
     
   • Forum Index Top
     
   • Forum Index Bottom
     
   • View Forum Element
     
   • View Forum Top
     
   • View Forum Bottom
     
   • View Topic Element
     
   • View Topic Top
     
   • View Topic Bottom
     
   • Nav Menu Top
     
   • Nav Menu Bottom
   
   
   Without describing each position separately, use the legend below to help you understand where each will go:
   
   
   Legend:
   
   Global - Global refers to site-wide. Add an ad to a global position and it shows on every page of Icy Phoenix.
   Forum - Forum refers to ads being positioned on the forum index.
   View Forum - View Forum refers to ads being positioned on viewforum.php. (topics list)
   View Topic - View Topic refers to ads being positioned on viewtopic.php (actual posts)
   Nav Menu - Nav Menu refers to ads being positioned on top or bottom of the top navigation bar.
   
   
   
2. Enable the positions you plan to create Ad "blocks" for by ticking the radio buttons and then click ADD AD at the bottom. Don't forget which positions you enabled!
   
   
3. You are able to use HTML or BBCode in the text field. If you do not participate in any AD activities, you could use this to display simple text. If you use Google AdSense, AdBrite, etc., you could enter the AD code in this text field to display your provider's AD.
   
   Notice that you can also set special permissions for each AD unit you display:
   
   
   • ALL
     
   • All but administrators
     
   • Guests and registered members (Not moderators and administrators)
     
   • Guests only
   
   
   Administrators will love not seeing their own ads because in some cases, administrators viewing their own ads can be a very negative thing to the ad providers. This also clears everything out so you can get a better idea what is on your site.

And now, the final result of an ad on your page (Global Bottom on my Icy Phoenix):

We believe there was a small problem with Google Adsense not displaying ads correctly with the latest IP beta. This should be fixed in the next beta release!

There is no menu CMS

Looking for the Ads & Sponsors link?

You can find it in the header of your main CMS menu or on the left in the CMS.

there to set the pop up mod like on this page.

I'm sorry, what was that Spydie?

i mean this full page pop up that turns up after x min conected to IP homepage

These specific ADS on IP.com are going to be removed very soon. :)

I'm waiting to reach the minimum amount for the check and I'll remove all ads on this site... since I don't ever reach 100$ per year with the current ones...

Be patient a bit more... I should have removed all for registered users.

This is great
