I have a site that uses phpbb2 and would like Adsense served on it. I have currently hacked the code myself to get them displayed, but I assume that there is a neat way to get this done automatically. Any site owners got experience of this?
take off the hacked code before you lose your account, while waiting for an answer here. i can't help, im sorry.
If you search the modficiations database on the phpBB web site, you'll find a couple of ways to change your forums to display Adsense. The adsense revenue sharing mod seems to do something simliar to what happens on Digital Point, with regards to displaying Adsense and crediting users for starting threads.
OK... I have made my own mod as follows: In page_tail.php I examine the name of the body template file that has just been used. If this is index_body, viewforum_body or viewtopic_body then I include() the ad text. This means that ads appear at the foot of the main index page, the forum index page and the page displaying a thread. No other pages carry ads.
Matt, I run an phpbb board. Have been running it for a year now. I have made mods to overrall.header.php and overall_footer. Just added the code as is. No problems so far.
I run a an ad management mod to insert adsense after the first post. Can't remember where I found it, probably phpbbhacks.com.
