This is a good plugin that looks clean and easy to use. But unfortunately, there’s no way to add an advertisement label on top or below banners/ads.
While it’s not a requirement by Google Adsense, it’s recommended to help avoid issues arising from accidental clicks by allowing the reader to know that the section they’re looking at is an advertisement.
]]>can we show different banners in different categories
]]>Hello,
How do you add an advertisement label? For example, when visiting a website with Google Ads, there is usually a label either on the top or bottom of the AD reading “Advertisement.” Labels are a must for publishers of popular AD services such as Adsense, Medianet, Bing, etc
]]>This tool is very powerful. However, it lacks an anti-spam feature. An anti-spam feature will enable people protect their advertising accounts such as Google Ads or any other advertising service providers.
An anti-spam feature works by banning IPs for people that are out to spam ads on a website. For example, a condition can be set such that when someone clicks on ads more than twice, the ads are hidden for a set period of time.
Alternatively, the ads can be hidden and swapped with something else like a banner advertising the social media platform for the website. Once the IP ban period is over ban, the ads can be restored to that IP.
There are other plugins offering such a feature but they are not robust like CM AD changer. Is such a feature in the works? I have tried to write to your team but no response nearly a month later.
]]>Hello,
I’m testing out the free version to ascertain the effectiveness of using this CM ADS on my website. So far so good and I’m so much impressed.
However, the WEIGHT function is not working. When I try to adjust it by a partial figure and save; on checking back, CM ADS automatically adjusts it to 100.
For example, I set a weight of 20 and save. But on checking back the settings I find CM ADS has set it at 100.
Is that a known bug or the feature is limited on the free version?
]]>Hi, It would be nice to be able having shortcodes inside the banner ads. We have some dynamic parts of the banners, that are displayed using shortcodes, but when added to the ‘Campaign HTML Ads’ editor – they just don’t work.
Please advice.
]]>Two things. First, when I set the weight of a banner, and save it, it always goes back to 100. Second, can someone explain how to use weight? It’s not explained anywhere in the user docs.

Please tell me I do not have to go to all my pages & change this code?

Campaign url is not valid. Valid urls should begin with https:// or https://
Where do I edit this?
]]>I created a campaign and I copy the shortcode and insert in my custom css on various pages and get this error: expected rbracket at line 1, col 16

Thanks in advance for the help.

I’ve fixed this by changing line 202-> 207 of cm-ad-changer-server-pro07aug2014/classes/ac_client.php from:
jQuery(".' . 'acc_banner_link' . $demonstration_id . '").bind("mousedown",function(){

]]>Hello,
I just started utilizing your ad server. When I upload a banner, it changes the size on my website. You can see it at the bottom of my home page: https://www.1390klgn.com/
It’s a banner for a Jeweler that says “where Utah gets engage”. When I look at the image info it says, 300px × 250px (scaled to 1,135px × 946px)
What is causing it to scale to a larger size?
Thanks,
Ryan
I installed the plugin. Setup a campaign. Wanted to test it but realized that I do not know what the shortcode is. All through your docs and even you instructions you mention “a shortcode”. I would have expected it to be explained in your install instructions.. but nope! IT IS JUST A BIG SECRET! (:
]]>I create an ad campaign and upload an image, but the widget only displays
<img src=”283162922.jpg”> where the campaign is to be displayed. The actual ad is stored at:
https://americanpostcardcollector.com/wp-content/uploads/ac_uploads/283162922200×200.jpg
For now, i’ve inputted the URL without using ad changer, but that won’t work after we launch!
]]>I installed the CM Ad Changer prior to WP 4 upgrade and was working fine with three campaigns. I tried adding another banner to existing campaign today and it will give me the prompt to select file from my computer, but after selecting the ok button, nothing happens. I dont know if this is a glitch with the new WP 4 or something Im missing. BTW I did confirm that GD is enabled on my server and its running PHP 5.3
Thanks.
