OpenAds post for Ad in feed footer

It has been a long, long time since I’ve actually seen OpenAds, the free, open source ad server OpenAds actually work (for me, anyways). Joseph had it functional about a year ago when we were still using its predecessor, phpAdsNew.

The bg server has probably seen no less than 4 installs of OpenAds since it took over. I won’t speak for my friend, Joe, but I know I have personally been extremely agitated in my attempts in the past to make it do what it is supposed to do. And that is to take nothing away from the software nor the community supporting it. More than likely, we were unable to get it to work because of all the other experimental stuff we do on our own server box. That’s cool, right? No reason to rail against the system, if we are maligning our portion of it.

As you’ll see on the site now, the banners at the bottom of the pages are currently being served out via our OpenAds install. With this post, I’m attempting to inject a banner into the footer of our RSS feeds (and according to whatever campaign we are employing within that “zone”.)

Will keep you informed!
