As you know, RavenNuke started out life loosely based on phpNuke version7.6
Shortly after the first official release of RavenNuke, we decided to drop the Banners modules and instead, include the Advertising module that was released as part of phpNuke 7.7+ as it offered more functionality and more foward compatibility as most people were actually migrating from phpNuke 7.7+ to RavenNuke.

So in short - the banners module was replaced with the Advertising module Smile

If there is no 'modules/Advertising' directory then the files may not have been uploaded.
I have checked the repository from which the packages are created and the module is definitely in there and I also checked my own download just now.

Did you check to see if it is activated in the module admin? I don't believe it is visible until it is turned on and default install is turned off.

I have the same issue........
I recently installed v2.20 and the advertising module does not show up in the admin area under modules

Is there a permission that needs set or something in the db I need to turn on?

Shouldn't - it should auto-add to that modules list.

Post the structure of your modules table please.

And make sure all the files under modules/Advertising are there.

Everything appears to be in modules under advertising

Advertising/admin/
Advertising/images/
Advertising/languages/
Advertising/index.php

Have you clicked on "Modules" yet within the admin menu? If not, click that, and then reload admin.php in your browser.

Yeah, I did that, I have been running this site for several years now and am familiar with the set-up
Just having some issues since I upgraded.

If you would like, I can give you login details and you can take a look and see what the issue may be. I should add the banners are showing still from the previous version, however when you click the banner it takes you to a 404 page and I have no way to edit and add new ones.

It appears, from what I can tell with just your admin log-that your Advertising module is either missing or was corrupted during upload or the modules table is some how out of wack.
I would need ftp access to clarify the integrity of the module itself and/or cPanel access to check the table structure.
By the way, I think you may have accidentally lost the credits/copyright notices in your footer.

Ok.......

I will send it over to you.

About the copyright, a few years back when I first downloaded the site I made a donation and was given permission to remove it by raven.

I had the same prob but it was my Internet security that was blocking banners.gif
After a renaming of the banners.gif end put that name in \modules\Advertising\admin\links.php everything went well.

gbhughs12 - it has been a few years since I last saw this particular problem but the fix should be realitvely easy for you to do.
I'll detail the problem here in case it serves as a remnder to others.

If I'm right, you either have, or have had at some point installed GT-NextGen google tapping.
This particular modification required alteration of the core nuke tables, specifically it adds the field 'url' to the nuke_modules table.
As a consequence, this plays havoc with the modules administration area as the code tries to update a specific number of fields which does not match the number of fields in the table and thus, the module list update fails.

The fix is to remove the 'url' field from the nuke_modules table.
If you want to get your hands dirty, go right ahead. If not let me know and I'll take care of it Wink

Yes I remember having to do that vaguely a few years ago.......

So I removed the url field and viola there is the module......

Now my next question is, banners are still showing from the old module or system....
Do I need to edit something in the template to reflect the new advertising module?

Yes, change all the references like
Code:


include("banners.php");

TO

echo ads(0);

I don't have include("banners.php") in my header.html file.......
I have $showbanners

You have may have to do this instead with theme.php:

$showbanners = ads(0);

Do this instead of the include("banners.php");

Ok, gonna change this up a little.........

What if I wanted to add my openads javascript in this spot instead?

What would I need to do exactly to add javascript in my header.html file?

Here is the code:

Code:
<script language='JavaScript' type='text/javascript' 


src='http://www.myurl.com/offers/adx.js'></script>
<script language='JavaScript' type='text/javascript'>
<!--
   if (!document.phpAds_used) document.phpAds_used = ',';
   phpAds_random = new String (Math.random()); phpAds_random =

phpAds_random.substring(2,11);
   
   document.write ("<" + "script language='JavaScript' type='text/javascript' src='");
   document.write ("http://www.myurl.com/offers/adjs.php?n=" +

phpAds_random);
   document.write ("&amp;what=zone:1");
   document.write ("&amp;exclude=" + document.phpAds_used);
   if (document.referrer)
      document.write ("&amp;referer=" + escape(document.referrer));
   document.write ("'><" + "/script>");
//-->
</script><noscript><a

href='myurl.com'

target='_blank'><img

src='myurl.com'

border='0' alt=''></a></noscript>

Whereever $showbanners was, replace that with your Javascript to put the ads in that location

PostPosted: Tue Jun 10, 2008 10:33 pm Reply with quote

I tried that and the code would not show........
I should say the banners from openads would not show

I read someplace that it would need to be edited in via includes/javascript for it to work
but when I did that it just appeared at the top of the page which isn't where I want it to show.

So I tried to create $openads in the includes/javascript file and failed miserably.

I wish it would have worked just putting it in where $banners was, but then easy isn't always
the best way Smile
