The integration with Pay Plugin is perfect!!!
But if I understand correctly, this advertisemet plugin is mostly for company users - because they have a company website url they can write into the advert.
In the beginning I was thinking there will be something like: advert type - html /or image /or "my listing" (It would be cool, - I could make few banners at the same top of index page, above premium, it would be 'gold positions' also in search sidebar, categories..... - users could promote their listings in such way and this plugin would become really good tool.
I had idea -
I created in demo page banner with an image advert, but as url I copied a listing url..
It works, but.. when I deleted listing advert linked to 404 page.
And for user, specially, if he uses mobile, copying url would be big
I had problems in demo site:
I was going as user in "my account"
There are section in the left side "promotions", then I was going to "Banners" section. There are such text:
"If you are looking forward to have your advertisement on our site, anywhere you see button "Advertise here!" you can submit own banner. After admin approval and budget payment your advert will be visible on our site."
I was searching and searching - I cant find that button.
In admin backoffice in the pay plugin banner section I found " When enabled, "Advertise here!" button is automatically hooked to each banner created by Banner Ads Plugin. "
I enabled it, but nothing. Then I was going back to backoffice -> Pay Plugin -> Banner, that button in banner section was inactive. I pressed back to ON, then pressed UPDATE (pressed F5, after page reloading still on ON, but in front - nothing - there is no such button. I can see advert, but not button.
OK, I was going back to the Backoffice -> searched for Pay Plugin -> Banners - that is set to OFF.
So, if you press ON and UPDATE, it seems everything is ok, but if you go, for example, to other Backoffice sections and then return back to Pay plugin ->Banners that button will be OFF.
I was angry in that moment - about hour wasted.
For other this forum readers my opinion:
This plugin is perfect for your own banners and html and adsense.
If you think, you will monetize and earn from users - I think no.
And integration with pay plugin is perfect, but for most users useless. Also idea pay per click and views is perfect!
but no one will
with urls (especially if mobile), there will be a lot of problems "what a f*** is "html"" ? etc.
ok, companies maybe will use this feature, they will use when your site will become big, with a lot of users..
Im sorry for such a long post.
