Greetings,
We're trying to configure a test banner on a website, but not only can we not get the banner to show, but the way the Invocation Code options are presented in the system is confusing, so I'd appreciate some guidance/pointers.
This is what I've done.
1. The Advertiser is configured.
2. A Campaign for the advertiser is configured.
Campaign type: Remnant
CPM, Impressions 10,000, Rate/price .5
Linked Zones: testsite.com (shows under Linked Zones).
3. Banners is configured with a single banner.
Linked Zones tab: nothing is displayed, so nothing to select/change.
Rest is left as default, the banner displays ok in all the tabs.
4. Websites configured with testsite.com.
Invocation Code* (see question below)
5. Zones is configured with testsite.com.
Zone type: Banner, Button or Rectangle
Linked banners: nothing is displayed, so nothing to select/change.
Invocation code** (see question below)
So, as mentioned, no banners are displayed, either because I'm not understanding the distinction between the Invocation Code* in #4 above and the Invocation Code** in #5 above.
Which Invocation Code is supposed to be used to get the banner to display?
I've tried both without success. The Invocation Code* for #4 is something like this:
<!-- Generated by Revive Adserver v3.2.0 -->
<!-- embed in HEAD tag -->
<script type='text/javascript' src='http://adserver.testsite.com/www/delivery/spcjs.php?id=3'></script>
...
<!-- embed in BODY somewhere -->
<script type='text/javascript'><!--// <![CDATA[
/* [id3] testsite.com\/ - Default */
OA_show(3);
// ]]> --></script><noscript><a target='_blank' href='http://adserver.testsite.com/www/delivery/ck.php?n=c677ab7'><img border='0' alt='' src='http://adserver.testsite.com/www/delivery/avw.php?zoneid=3&n=c677ab7' /></a></noscript>
The Invocation Code** for #5 is something like this:
<!--/*
*
* Revive Adserver Asynchronous JS Tag
* - Generated with Revive Adserver v3.2.0
*
*/-->
<ins data-revive-zoneid="3" data-revive-id="427ee60dbecdf81e8f5fa510e4e8a5d7"></ins>
<script async src="//adserver.testsite.com/www/delivery/asyncjs.php"></script>
Neither work.
I also have the following crontab:
1 * * * * /bin/php /www/sites/adserver/adserver.testsite.com/scripts/maintenance/maintenance.php adserver.testsite.com
What I did see mentioned in the docs is that the zone must be linked to the banner, else the banner won't be displayed, but I'm unable to link the two. Is this perhaps the reason? Even though I've been able to link the zone to the campaign as mentioned in #2 above?
What am I missing/doing incorrectly? I'd appreciate any pointers. Let me know if any further detail is required.
Thanks
