Ad Opportunities
Banner advertisement to maximize your ad revenue from visiting users. The plugin allow registered users to select & add the advertisement banners and/or advertisement script like Google Ads, Video embed etc. Site admin can manage, change, and remove from wp-admin easily.
The WooCommerce Plugin should be installed if you want users to purchase the banner space from front side.
Site admin can manage banner spaces to be display on front end via plugin settings page from wp-admin. We have added maximum possibility of display advertisement via the plugin and easily show/hide by plugin settings.
Display banners for each individual pages (eg: home page, each category & tags pages, ads, blog post and content detail pages ).
If you have 100 pages on your site so you have possibility to display ads is 100 multiply by the banners spaces you have selected.
Just like if you have selected above & below header banner, above & below footer banners & above and below sidebar banners so total is 6 banners.
So now you have total banner spaces to buy for users is 100 multiply by 6 (100 x 6) equal to 600 banners you can display for you complete site.
Of cause the banner position value(price) will be common for all 100 pages like if you have create a product for $10 and selected for above & below header, for whole ads detail pages while any buyer going to buy the ads banner space he will charged $10 only.
Like wise if you want different banner space price for above & below footer, you should create new product and manage settings from plugin settings to charge the price as per you decided.
Initially the plugin have common price selection and settings options.
Like currently there is only one option to display default banner on above header space for whole site. Same way all other options are same so price value for all pages for particular banner space will be common for whole site.
So if the plugin is on demand, that time we will plan to add different settings options for home pages, listing pages and detail pages. So the site owner can change the banner space price for home page, listing pages and detail pages.

New Release
Comments (39)
Hi Vipul,
I already read your demo/documentations. For clarifications and confirmation.
(1) Is it fully compatible with classipress 4+?
(2) If wooclassify is installed, is it compatible with wooclassify?
(3) Does it include the front-end page (or) message displaying which specific banner will expire when/what time?
(4) If the visitors switch on another language at the front-end, will the banner visibility change? (i.e. will they see the same banner ad?)
(5) Can the admin set a DIFFERENT price for each banner from the back-end?
Thank you for your time.
Hi Vipul,
Thank you for your reply. Regarding the (3) point, there is a misunderstanding… I was referring to the front-end page (or) message that is displayed to “all the POTENTIAL ad banner buyers” (NOT referring to the buyers/users who already purchased the banner ad). That way, if someone (potential buyer) wants to buy the banner ad, he/she can know when the specific banner ad will expire and when to buy…..Thank you.
“(3) Does it include the front-end page (or) message displaying which specific banner will expire when/what time? ”
==> Actually the Customer/user from front end can see the banner order, submission and expiry date, and manage banner from dashboard…… with order details like payment details and all…. You can see screen image for more detail about that…
Hi,
(1) If a banner at a specific place already has the ad purchased and posted by someone,
can another person post the banner ad at the same place?
(2) An ad should have the expiration date displayed to all the visitors of the website. In that way, the visitors/users who want to purchase the ad can know when they can post an ad…..Single Ad listing at classipress shows the expiration date of the ad….So Ad opportunites plugin should have the same kind of ad expiration display feature…
Hi zingyixiu,
1)Yes user can purchase more than one banner for one place.
2) The expiry date will display as per purchase by banner owner and admin only not to all. Because ads display individual page not like banner.
Thanks
Hi,
Not understanding clearly.
Were you saying that more than one ad can be displayed AT the SAME BANNER PLACE and AT THE SAME TIME by different buyers of the banner ads? For example, if one banner ad buyer posts an Ad at one banner place, can a different buyer post a different ad AT THE SAME BANNER PLACE at the SAME TIME?
If so, how many ads can be displayed at ONE BANNER PLACE?
Thanks.
Hi zingyixiu, Yes you can add more than one banner for one place. Actually there is not limit of how many banners to display but you should add 3-4 banners at one place to display properly. Otherwise may be design not display better.
Thanks
Hi, thank you for your kind reply.
If there are 3-4 or 5 banner buyers placing their ads at the same time, it is going to cause the problem for the site. If that is the case, do you have a system in place that does not allow the purchase of the banners by the ad buyers if the number of ads for a specific banner place reaches a limit set by the admin?
together with the message system that says “you cannot purchase this banner ad at this moment as there are already ads at this banner ad place”….
Better, if, at the backend, the admin can set the maximum number of banner ads that are allowed to display at one place.
Hi there,
Actually no one can directly buy the banner until they have the purchase link. So if admin send purchase link then only user can buy the banner that is the main & important way to control the banners purchasing system.
Thanks
Hi,
Thank you for your info.
1) How does the admin send the purchase link?
2) Can the admin and the buyer know which banner ad place is linked with with which purchase link?
3) Can the admin post those banner links for purchase as in wooclassify?
Hi zingyixiu,
Manage banners from wp-admin as per below image :: https://marketplace.appthemes.com/files/2015/02/screen_11.jpg
1) wp-admin >> Ads (left menu) >> Ad Opportunities Banners List
2) To send purchase link see default settings from wp-admin > Ads (left menu) >> Ad Opportunities Settings
— Even on every places while there is url and you set your url like below it will help you to display link directly :: http://www.wpwebs.com/demo/designerpress-classipress/?buy_this_ad=1
You just add “?buy_this_ad=1” for each link like home page. category pages. search page while for single Ads pages see settings/shortcode >> Purchase Banner Advertisement List Page >> http://www.wpwebs.com/demo/designerpress-classipress/purchase-banner-advertisement-list-page-ad-opportunities-plugin/
Thanks
Hi,
Classipress (4+) has the default banner place to create Header Ad (468×60) and Content Ad (336×280).
(1) How are your banners different from those default classipress banners?
(2) Will your banners replace and hide the default classipress banners in the places where those default banners are?
Thank you,
