Ads only for Guests

[Darkrad]

Hello, in my forum I want to make ads (Google Adsense) shown only to guests, I don't want members (or a certain usergroup) to see ads, how can I do that?

[.m.]

simple method is to use template conditionals plugin & add required advt codes with related condition

<if $mybb->user['uid'] == 0 then>
// advt codes
</if>

or if you want your ads to show on your header you can add your ads at
ACP >>Templates & Style>>Templates>>Header Templates>>header_welcomeblock_guest

Why is it 0?  Isn't guest id is 1?

[Mastersly]

your right, change it to 1

[.m.]

guests user group is 1 ; user id for guest is 0

if you want to use usergroup in the condition then code can be like below

<if $mybb->user['usergroup'] == 1 then>
// advt codes
</if>

@.m how can we use that code to add more than 1 group

[.m.]

^ can be like this (note: x, y, z are usergroup numbers)

<if in_array($mybb->user['usergroup'], array('x', 'y', 'z')) then>
// advt codes
</if>
