google_ads not appearing - skin issue maybe?
« on: August 20, 2012, 02:34:16 PM »
I suspect I have a good idea of the answer for this, but I have no idea where to really start with a solution or if there are any materials out there to help me, but...

After (I think successfully - any way to check this?) installing the google_ads plugin from MyRoundcube I am not seeing any adverts anywhere... Now, I'm making an assumption that it's based on the fact that my current skin (Larry) does not have space for ads. I've been trying to locate a place for me to install the space myself but after looking through many files the closest I could come was to the HTML files in the skins/larry/templates directory.

If I meddle about with this and insert some PHP (as the example blank.php file indicates I need to do) then I would obviously have to rename the files and break some links - I'm not even entirely convinced these files actually drive what I'm after anyway...

Is there any documentation that anybody knows of that might help me here? I really have no idea where to start with this now... From what I've read it should just be as simple as doing what I've already done. Am I missing something?

Thanks in advance,

Antony

I'm probably not going to be able to help to much on this one but I know that the plugin supports Larry. Is there anything in the RoundCube error log?

I had a previous issue showing in the error log, but upgrading to PHP 5.3 sorted those. Since then there's nothing in the error log. I'm not 100% convinced I've installed it properly to be honest... I spent a lot of time messing with plugin_manager but had some issues and didn't want users having such control. So I opted to install just the google_ads element. I basically took the source from the Google code project and created a copy of each and uploaded that while changing the config to make it active.

Was there an easier way that is better do you think?

I'm not an expert on the plugin_manager but I think you can limit control to specific users. I'm going to guess the problem is that you took just the google_ads plugin from the Google Code repository, I think it has some other requirements and since the Google Code versions are the development versions there maybe some problems there.

Thank you.

I removed the plugin and tried using the plugin manager and I'm getting lots of errors in my error log and again, I still can't seem to enable ads in the client. Something is very wrong with how I've set it up but I've followed the set-up video, I've followed all the documentation I can find and yet still I'm having the same problems.

I'm looking through the code provided in plugin manager though and I cannot really find much about google_ads - how does it know what settings to use? I can't find that anywhere...

Sorry to be such a pain.

Sorry - I forgot to mention that the error logs state that there are files missing. The files seem to be names of plugins but they're not included in the download...

This activity was from logging in, going to Settings, clicking Manage Plugins and then ticking the box to update plugins.
