    sorry if this is in the wrong forum, ive searched the DP boards and VBulletin.org boards for the last few hours with no joy

    what mod is the DP board using when you select the search feature from the navbar and it auto searches google first

    thats one awesome mod and i want to use it myself

    thanks in advance for any help!

    No sorry... all the stuff done here is kept in-house. :) To be honest it's very little coding on vBulletin side (other than a simple template change) and mostly coding on the Google API side.

    thanks for taking the time to reply
    sorry to hear its not one for the masses

    will check out the programmer forum and see if theres anyone with the skills to do the job

    thanks again! nice mod!


    cheeky question - have you noticed a dramatic increase in your adsense revenue from that one mod alone?

    Nah... the adsense revenue is *very* minimal from it. Maybe a few cents a day.

    thats surprising !

    ive been playing about with my adsense layouts to see which works best

    which placement do you find makes you the most for you in your forum placements? Im sure other DPers would find that interesting too if you dont mind sharing

    also, i know theres a lot of old reported stats on how much DP generates in adsense revenue but whats your monthly ballpark earnings (hope im not asking too much lol just interested)

    Not really sure what placement works the best... AdSense isn't letting you add or remove channels from ad units right now (been that way for a month or so now)... And not posting revenue, sorry. :)
