OpenX

[Hostlayer]

I've been looking around the OpenX and VBulletin forums but haven't been able to find much on this.

Anyone have experience integrating OpenX with VBulletin?

I have tried the code in the integration post that they have but it just resulted in errors. Anyone mind sharing some code?

That's what I tried, it's from 2005 and doesn't seem to work anymore

Well WTF is running on the latest VB as far as I know, and seems to be running openx fine. Maybe Kalina can shed some light on the issue for you. I'll have a quick nosey round google now and see if I can dig anything up.

I had to figure this out on my own, and it's not something that can easily be explained, I suppose I could be hired to set it up for you, if you want.

[Hostlayer]

No thats alright, got it figured out now.

Hi,

If you can provide some feedback on that vBulletin tutorial I can have it updated to be more accurate from the vBulletin side. I'll also review it from the OpenX side and make sure it is still accurate for us.
It was written by a user for phpAdsNew (OpenX 2.0). We are now at 2.4 and even have 2.5-beta

What I noticed though is that the tutorial is using Local Mode invocation tags. This can be more complex than other tags because it requires using PHP and your website and OpenX must be on the same server and domain.
Using Javascript and iFrame invocation tags can be much simpler as you simply need to paste the HTML with no PHP'ing involved.

Glad to see you got it working but hopefully we can help make it easier for other new-comers

Thanks,
