Geotargetting in Mambo

    Hi,

    I notice that there are several modules for showing country specific banner adverts to replace the standard banner module in Mambo. Does anyone here have any experience with any of them - or can recommend any of them?


    Cheers

    Chris

    I've put some geotargetting into a not-yet-launched Mambo site using geo-ip.dat and it was a breeze. We pulled it in the end but it *was* easy.

    for the ads we're using phpAdsNew and passing through the country the user is viewing content for (but that could as easily be the country the user is from) and letting phpAdsNew filter on that.

    If you have specific questions let me know. It's a subject I'm right into!

    Excellent, thanks. I'll look into phpadsnew.

    Oh, and thanks for the comment about the site. I'm going to do a new template when I've got time, and yes the template does look simple - just a case of sticking the right php function calls in the right places. I find the navigation of my own site abysmal at the moment!!!

    I'm just concetrating on getting the content in there for now. :)
