Hi,
it’s a nice plugin and easy to install.
I’ve running some wp blogs with semiologic-pro 4.28.
I’ve the problem with this theme the ad isn’t displayed.
Including into post I only got this message but no ad. With any other theme it works pretty well.
Do anyone know something about this problem?
Thanks for your response.

@ baramister: Have you replaced the necessary lines of code in wp-includes/general-template.php?

@ ray: Are you looking in the wp-includes folder? What version of wordpress are you using?

“@ baramister: Have you replaced the necessary lines of code in wp-includes/general-template.php?

I also don’t see a file named wp-includes/general-template.php … using wp 2.010

What version is this written for?

The change was made in WordPress 2.1, so you’ll have to upgrade.

Integrate AuctionAds Into Your Posts With Plugin…

Ever since I started testing out AuctionAds on my car forums, I’ve been looking at ways to improve the performance of the program. My AuctionAds earnings have increased tremendously since I first started running them. Now, theres another wa…

How do you get this work with Semiologic 4.2? This is what I am using. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

If it doesn’t work with Semilogic, then I’m sorry, however support for Semilogic is not planned at this time.

When I made the adjustments to the code in the general-template.php file I my blog no longer appeared.

Why do you even need the plugin when you just need to insert the code into your page?

How do you use the plugin?

Make sure you edit the general-template.php file correctly. Instead of having to go to auctionads.com for the code when you make every post, this plugin lets you just add:
tags will mess up the related posts and turn them into auctionads. I opted to remove the related post part for the auctionads. Maybe it’s the theme, but it’s a great plugin nevertheless.

AuctionAds+Twitter+Adsense+Wordpress=toBid.info…

Cause AuctionAds allow using multiple AuctionAds units on a single page, so, plan to use AuctionAds as the main content for toBid.info
Use the keywords from search box and title to define the keyword that needed for the AuctionAds to get the fitting c…

@Ray & all

I know this is several months late, but figured I’d say something anyway.

You will get errors on your blog if you make the template changes but do not activate the plugin.

You will get different errors if you alter the code and activate the plugin but do not enter in all the AuctionAd options.

In order to have it run properly you MUST complete all steps.

hello…

Agree…

This was super easy to install, and works like a charm. Nice work!

Is it possible to use this with your eBay affiliate number somehow? I don’t see any obvious way to do that, unless that’s what ‘client’ means under the Options settings.

Impressive, cool and easy to install.
Thanks!

Good plugin. thanks..

Great plugin..

hey guys and gals,

Ok, I am still a newbie and probably will be for life. Here’s my question: is an auction ad an ad that people can bid on on your blog/site? What kind of traffic or PR would you need for people to start buying ad space on your blog?

Now a point about the original post…excellent instructions. I was way too confused with wp so I gave up on it and went to blogger. It was easier to manage the template configurations. Can someone please tell me the pros and cons of Blogger vs. WP ?
Thanks,
Chris

Make sure you edit the general-template.php file correctly.
