How to stop yourself clicking your ads on Invision forums

Right so you own your invision forum and have got your ads on there right? But you don't want to click them yourself by mistake cause thats just bad!

So use this code to block your admin group from seeing them!

First you need to find your user group id, so log into your ACP and click on the "Management" tab. The click on "Manage User Groups" from the menu on the left. Right now you have your list of member groups, if you get the link location of the group you want to block...

This is your user group id (In Bold)

Now go to where you have your google ads code and wrap it in:

<if="ipb.member['mgroup'] != 4">

<script type="text/javascript"><!--
google_ad_client = "";
google_ad_width = 728;
google_ad_height = 90;
google_ad_format = "728x90_as";
google_ad_type = "text_image";
google_ad_channel ="3863925167";
google_color_border = "222222";
google_color_bg = "FFFFFF";
google_color_link = "262997";
google_color_url = "008000";
google_color_text = "000000";
//--></script>
<script type="text/javascript"
  src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js">
</script>

</if>

Code (markup):

As you can see you replace the number in the if statement with your group.

There you go, just spent a little time finding that out so i thought i would save other people the bother.

Sorry if this in the wrong place.

 

its a little weird ... but thanks anyway

 

Its good cause you can block your whole Admin group from clicking on them, plus its just good cause you don't get to see them on your forum

 

Ok, this explains how to block the ad unit from admins. What would one need to do to block the ad unit from all members and show it to just guests?

 

Just place the ad code like this:

<if="ipb.member['mgroup'] != 2">

Banner code goes here...
