[Revive v4.1.4. | Banner 'Advanced' Tab | Save Problem]

Hi !

Trying to save the following in Revive-Adserver v4.1.4 > default manager > inventory > banners > banner > advanced (Tab) > "Always append the following
HTML code to this banner" :

<style type="text/css">
@media only screen and (min-width: 1px) and (max-width: 414px) {.show-ad-copy {display:block;}}
@media only screen and (min-width: 415px) and (max-width: 5000px) {.show-ad-copy {display:none;}}
</style>
<div class="show-ad-copy" style="margin: 3px 0px 0px 0px;">This is the ad copy to show on small screen only</div>

Above works fine in Revive-v3.2.0, but doesn't work in Revive-Adserver v4.1.4.

If you :

1) Try to 'save' you get a 'Error 403' message & no save.

2) If you remove the left brackets "(" & the right brackets ")" in 'style' it will save but obviously no use.

3) If you goto 'www/admin/banner-advanced.php L113' & change 'class='code' to anything else it saves but does not show on target website.

L113 | echo "<textarea class='code' name='append' rows='6' cols='55' style='width: 100%;'
tabindex='".($tabindex++)."'>".htmlspecialchars($banner['append'])."</textarea>";

Somewhere validation for class 'code' must have been changed - urgent help needed please to fix after upgrade, thank you.

[Site - Variable | Invocation Code]

Hi Erik,

 

Thanks for reply, have read suggested article but still unsure of exact syntax to use = no ads showing.

 

Original Header (Generated) :

 

<script type='text/javascript'><!--// <![CDATA[

    var OA_source = 'source';

// ]]> --></script><script type='text/javascript' src='http:  //  www.example.com/www/delivery/spcjs.php?id=1&amp;target=_blank'></script>

 

New Header (Altered by me) - Script ref. added to template 'index.php' in 'Head' section :

 

<script type='text/javascript'><!--// <![CDATA[

    var type = '02';

// ]]> --></script><script type='text/javascript' src='http:  //  www.example.com/www/delivery/spcjs.php?id=1&amp;target=_blank'></script>

 

Ad Script - Joomla 2.5.24 - Coded processed via 'Custom Flexi Code' Module @ required module position :

 

<script type='text/javascript'><!--// <![CDATA[

    OA_show(1);

// ]]> --></script>

 

Obviously there is something wrong with my syntax. I have only changed the second line in 'Header '

from the generated  '  var OA_source = 'source';  '  to  '  var type = '02';  '

 

Could you please advise exact syntax to use & where. Also, is there anything else I need to do to get this to work ? Create 'Target Channel' ?

Hi Revive Adserver!

 

Fab product !! - Had earlier version, now have 3.1.0 working well & delivering ads perfectly !!

 

Could someone now please advise regarding Revive fine tuning :

 

I have advertisers in 15 different industry groups ('type') - with each group coded '01' to '15'.

 

I don't want competitors adverts showing up on Client Websites - In essence what I'm try to achieve in Revive is "If the Client is 'type=02' then don't show Banners from other 'type=02' Clients".

 

To achieve this I have :

 

1) Created / Added a 'Delivery Option' for each 'Banner'.

 

2) The 'Delivery Limitation' used is 'Site - Variable' set to 'is different from' - 'Name' = 'type' & 'Value' = '01' to '15' (Where 'Value' = Clients industry 'type' code).

 

All good - But what next ?

 

In Revive I went to a 'Website' & Clicked 'Invocation Code' & among the options offered was 'Source' - 

 

Is 'Source' the place where you put the 'type=02' (Or whatever) identifier for that Website ?

 

Anyway, generated the following as sample :

 

'website code' - head

 

<!-- Generated by Revive Adserver v3.1.0 -->

<script type='text/javascript'><!--// <![CDATA[

    var OA_source = 'type=02';

// ]]> --></script><script type='text/javascript' src='http :// www.example.com/ras/www/delivery/spcjs.php?id=1'></script>

 

'Website code' - body

 

<script type='text/javascript'><!--// <![CDATA[

    /* [id1] local-default-728x90 */

    OA_show(1);

// ]]> --></script>

 

(I always delete the 'noscript' part - causes problems)

 

Is this correct ?

 

I am assuming in the above example the script on the 'Website' calls all Banners in zone 'id=1', then Revive looks at the 'Delivery Options' for each Banner in that zone before delivery & sends that 'Banner' to the 'Website' if that 'Banners Delivery Option' settings are met ? 

 

Am I doing the right thing ? Please advise !!

 

Cheers Paul Zero.
