mobile ads problem

[vedus]

i am try to figure out what i do wrong here and the ads NO working at all
the error i catch is "could not create ad"
both in android phone and the ipad.
here is the code

Code: Select all

local tDetails
 MobileAdRegister "my-registered-code"
on opencard 
  #Advertising  
  if the environment = "mobile" then
    // See the dictionary for more metadata entries
    put "10" into tDetails["refresh"] // The advert refresh interval in seconds
    put 16 into tDetails["age"] // The age of the target audience
    put "female" into tDetails["gender"] // The expected gender of the target audience   
    mobileAdCreate "myAd1","banner",(0,0),tDetails
    put the result into rslt --< Check the error
    if rslt is not empty then
      answer error rslt
      
      //mobileAdSetTopVisible ("myAd1", true) //  Sets the visible of the ad "myAd1" 
      mobileAddSetVisible "myAd1",true
    end if
  end if

Hi vedus,

nbot sure, never worked with ads on mobile yet, but the handler "MobileAdRegister"
should not be listed separately, then is is not being executed!
Put it into a "pre-/openstack" handler or something and try again.

Code: Select all

on preopenstack 
   MobileAdRegister "my-registered-code"
   ##...
end preopenstack

Also set the "mobileAddSetVisible" ONLY in case of success!
You currently do this when it fails

Code: Select all

local tDetails
on opencard 
  #Advertising 

  # I always avoid long IF END IFs if possible ;-) 
  if the environment <> "mobile" then
     exit opencard
  end if

  ## See the dictionary for more metadata entries
  put "10" into tDetails["refresh"] // The advert refresh interval in seconds
  put 16 into tDetails["age"] // The age of the target audience
  put "female" into tDetails["gender"] // The expected gender of the target audience   
  mobileAdCreate "myAd1","banner",(0,0),tDetails
  put the result into rslt --< Check the error

  ## ERROR! Don't continue!
  if rslt <> empty then
      answer error rslt
     EXIT TO TOP
  end if
      
  ## SUCCESS!
  ## NOW you can set the visible etc...
  ##mobileAdSetTopVisible ("myAd1", true) //  Sets the visible of the ad "myAd1" 
  mobileAddSetVisible "myAd1",true
end opencard

Best

thx klaus,like always you have right
question..
i have a top bar and i want the ads to be bellow the top bar but....
because the app is for multi-resolution i can't make it to work.
the height of the bar is 90px so when i put.

Code: Select all

set the topleft of "banner" to the bottomleft of grp "topbar"  # Is no working >the same if i change the "myAd1" with "banner"

if i put

Code: Select all

mobileAdSetTopLeft "myAd1", (0,the bottomleft of grp "topbar") # still no working > the same if i change the "myAd1" with "banner"

anyone have a solution of this?

Maybe doing this right from the start:
...
mobileAdCreate "myAd1","banner",(0,90),tDetails
...
?
