[Pro|Selling] Email notification before an ad expires

Send an email notification to notify e.g. 5 day before an ad expires. That way we can go back to the client to see if they would like to renew and keep track of each individual ad that expires on a different date. Additionally show a warning in the ad health tab.

If adsense ad loads blank, display alternate ad

So sometimes adsense doesn't display an ad for whatever reason. It would be nice to have a way for Adv. Ads to detect this and then display an alternate ad (group?).

Add multiple images on the same ad (e.g. devices, specific dates, etc.)

For example, a desktop image and a mobile image. And also an image to show "to" and another to show "from" (especific dates for ads rotation). Although it is contemplated, you have to create any of these as individual ads and manage those options on the Group. Giving the option on the ad itselfs avoids the creation of mutiple ads for the same product/campaign.

[Pro] Automated split tests

Advanced Ads might automate the split-testing for me by monitoring clicks and then automatically "selecting" a winner to continue showing, like AdSense does.

Condition: parent and child categories

Hi, I would like to recommend the ability to set the condition "Parent categories" and "Child categories". In this way, those who have many parent and child categories, do not have to set many categories for each banner. For example, I have the parent category "Sport" which has about 40 child categories. So every time I publish a banner (of my customers) I have to set all the child categories. And I have two versions of the banners (desktop and mobile), so I have to do this twice each time.

[Selling] Pre-booked ad space

Allow option for potential advertisers to pay for pre-booked spaces. Then when spaces are booked out, a notification will tell other advertisers that the specific space on those specific dates are currently full. Could be shown on a booking calendar? Even if this is not done on the front end, if spaces could be named, and linked to calendar, it would allowed potential advertisers to see what spaces are available, and when. This would then open other possibilities for advertisers to be put on a "waiting list" for cancellations, or encouraged to fill other spaces, offering "us" the highest income chances.

Video Ads

Add video ads to the ad types list. Programmatic Video ads are one of the biggest sellers and continuing to grow. The ability to offer hosted or ad network video ads could add a lot of revenue that would otherwise be missed.

Insert Evenly Spaced Ads In Content Based on Content Length

The idea would be to allow a user to set an article length and define the number of ads that would be inserted into the content automatically. The ads would be evenly spaced and would be pulled from a predefined list of Ads, Placements, or Groups. Users could define multiple article lengths. For example: Under 600 Words: 3 Ads - Placements at 0% (START), 50%, 100% (END) 601-1000: 4 Ads - Placements at 0%, 33%, 66%, 100% 1000-1500: 5 Ads - Placements at 0%, 25%, 50%, 75%, 100% 1501+ Words: 6 Ads - Placements at 0, 20, 40, 60, 80, 100

[Pro | Selling ] Integrate selling with Woo-Commerce Subscriptions

WooCommerce Subscriptions is a paid add-on that allows subscription products to be auto-renewed at a certain time like many services that can be purchased on the Internet. This is perfect for my ad-selling use case where a monthly, quarterly or ad subscription auto-renews. Dev note: Advanced Ads would be happy to test this if any of our users would set it up on our test site.

Calendar in backend for admins

I have a lot of ad spaces across my website. Each ad space may have 1 ad, or maybe multiple ads. When clients book a specific space for a certain period of time for a future date, it's a lot of work keeping up with when a space is "fully booked". If there was a calendar that linked with created and scheduled ads, it could notify us on when a space is full and for what period of time.

I would like to have some kind of banner organization, that can be used for statistics purpose.

Like this: ADVERTISER | | CAMPAIGN1 CAMPAIGN2 | | | BN1 BN1 BN2 Of course, when we have that kind of organization, we need reporting on all three levels, for the advertiser, campaign and banners.

[Selling] Self Renew for Advertisers Coupled with Auto Reminders

Feature Idea: Advertisers can renew (and pay for) their own ads. When business is good we have fifty or more advertisers. Keeping track of who is expiring when, following up with reminders and chasing them to pay is time consuming. Would like to see reminders about their ad expiration could go out automatically, starting a month before the ad expires, with two or three reminders spaced out, and the advertiser could click a link to renew (and pay for) their ad at any time.

[Pro] Animations for Ad rotation

When using the in place Ad rotation an Ad rotates without any animation, it's there and the next one. Especially for larger Ads, in specific full screen Ads this is highly annoying, ugly to see and it does not look professional ('aggresive'). Adding an animation like Slide or Fade for this in place rotation will increase the look and feel of such an Ad.

Server image ads over CDN

We are running a CDN with image optimization to serve nextgen image formats/webp on our site and all of our ads served via AdvancedAds are still defaulting to the original images which are larger and a drain on page load.

[Pro] Skip Paragraph if too short

I wish there were more restrictive conditions in place similar to Words Between Ads and Minimum Content Length. We run an entertainment website with articles that have image captions (which appear in p ids), as well as one-liners announcing release dates and trailers, and sometimes our ads show up immediately after the captions or on top of a trailer embed. Words Between Ads and Minimum Content Length only goes so far. I propose a feature that would simply allow for paragraphs of a certain length to be completely ignored, i.e. not be counted as a paragraph.

[Geo Targeting] Location by browser place / GPS

Would it be possible to be located according to our browser place, obviously if the user accepts to be located? So far, some users are badly located by the IP adress because their position depends on their internet provider. So targeting by city and zip code does not work perfectly. If the user is on a mobile phone and has allowed location permission to the browser, then it will auto-detect the GPS location of the mobile phone (if location permission is already granted or ask for location permission for the first time) and then deliver ads based on that location

Element visible - The animation starts when specific HTML element becomes visible. Specify CSS selector for the element (#id or .class).

Minify the ad HTML/JavaScript before publication

In a search of optimizations to perform on my websites, I've noticed Ads containing JavaScript code are not minified by the typical optimization plugins, such as LiteSpeed, Autoptimize and others. The reason seems to be that these plugins fear interfering with JavaScript code, especially ads, that somehow depend on line and/or character position to perform well, something minification would remove. Since we users know beforehand the ads we add directly via Advanced Ads, I'd suggest that AA gives us the option to minify the ads before it's send down the WordPress pipeline. In my tests, when I manually minify the ads, I see no issues with the ads on the front page. But doing so manually is not recommended, as we may need to at times edit the ad and may simply forget to re-minify its code.

[Pro] WP GeoDirectory Integration

I bought WP Advanced Ads All Access to use on a Dentist directory & geolocation search. I wanted to show ads on archive pages, posts and the dentist's post type on the free listings. As it is configured now, I'll have to create rules for or edit each dentist that upgrades to a premium listing. It would be great if Advanced Ads recognized the different package levels. That way, one rule could be created to show ads on the free listings, but not on the paid listings.

Reload Ads without reloading the page (Ajax or similar)

Hi, I propose a trigger for an "Ads-Reload". In our special case, we ask the site visitor about their zip code. We have created a popup for this. When submitting the form, we attach part of the postcode to the URL. Based on the URL parameter or the URL conditions, it is decided which ads will be displayed. At the moment we have to reload the page. But we would like to be able to display the relevant ads without reloading the page.

Otherwise they might not remember which ad image or text to upload to which purchase, since they are just called #Item1, #Item2.

Version History for Placements

As a site relies more heavily on placements, the situation might arise that a significant portion of website content is being served through Advanced Ads placements. Meanwhile, the settings for placements can be very involved and be extremely important to the functioning of the website. Once a setting is changed or deleted, nobody knows what that setting is or was. A version history system would allow this product to be more resilient for use cases where Advanced Ads is driving large portions of websites, and be incredibly helpful for all users to boot.

[Pro] Track impressions and clicks for separate domains

Please add the possibility to track the domains (where the ads are loaded/placed) separately in the statistics when using the ad server placement. For now all impressions/clicks are displayed together in the statistics, but this is not very useful and it would be way better to be able to distinguish between the number of clicks/impressions which happened for a given ad unit for example on customer websites A, B, C, and so on, in order to have correct reports for each domain/customer. The actual workaround would be to create duplicates of each ad unit (which would all be identical, with exception of the title to keep track of the assigned domain), and place the corresponding ad unit on the assigned domain, but this is way too cumbersome and would heavily overcomplicate future edits to the ad units (and also remove most advantages of using an ad server).

WP All Import Integration

Advance ADs is a fantastic plugin with an amazing team behind it. I feel there is one very important element missing that would expand the capability of Advance ADs. WP All Import is a plugin that allows importing content into WordPress Posts, Pages, Custom Post Types, Taxonomies, and Fields. However and works with many different plugins and themes. However, for some reason Advance ADs is one of those rare plugins where WP All Import is unable to detect ad units for injecting dynamic data tags from feed Imports such as [@URL{1}] specifically where iframe ADs are used. Adding this integration would be a huge step forward for the Advanced ADs plugin because it would allow bulk importing many different AD types from affiliate network feeds such as banner ads as well. If you are a user of WP All Import than you have an understanding of this request and will hopefully upvote this feature. If you have never used WP All Import before I would like to suggest giving it a try to see how powerful the plugin is and the possibilities that would open up with Advance ADs and WP All Import integration and come back here to up vote this feature. TIA to all who can help make this possible.

Easy Ad Submission For BuddyBoss

BuddyBoss helps in building communities and you know, in communities, users generate almost all the contents. I think it will be better if users are able to post ads like any other post in BuddyBoss ( just like Facebook which allow post owners to boost posts). Paid ads blend into normal user generated contents in BuddyBoss but can only be differentiated with the "sponsored" marks in them. This will work better if an admin has a BuddyBoss social community and doesn't want to install Woocommerce for Selling ads addon.

CLS Problem: Before writing ad DIVs into the DOM, check if their conditions are met and the wrapper is needed at all.

If one is using a lot of conditional ads, e.g. render this ad if the post has a certain tag, then all the wrapper ad divs get rendered into the DOM, even if the condition is not met. Using CSS to give those DIVs a height value to reduce the CLS value is impossible now, since I would create huge amounts of white space for ads that won't render anyway, because their condition is not met. So in short: Please render ad wrapper DIVs ONLY if the condition is met - do the check before DOM is rendered.

[Sticky Ads] fix in-content ads for lower CLS when scrolling

In-content ads (content placements) can affect CLS scores, especially if the ads are responsive and can be one of several different heights. It would be great to reserve a certain height for the ad (say 400px) and if the ad is shorter than that (for example, 250px) it would stick to the top of the screen as the user scrolls, then slide down once they reach the end of the reserved height.
  • Example
  • We looked into doing this using the Fixed Widget Wordpress plugin Advanced Ads maintains, but the injected Content ads don't have a span/div after them we can set as the stop. Simple fix could be to add a named, clearing end span/div and use Fixed Widget to set that div as a stop. A fancy fix would be to add a setting to Content ad placements for the height to fix and a checkbox to tell the ad to stick within its div so we don't have to use the Fixed Widget plugin.

    SureMembers is a content restriction plugin that apply access groups to each WP user. I'd like to show specific ads depending onthe access group instead of having to use the WP user roles.

    Be able to categorize Ads like post categories work

    Make it possible to create categories the same way wordpress post categories work, For example: Top banners / Widget banners / Skyscrapers / Company name / etc.. This in order to be able to see how many ads we have per category and to be able to sort them. A category page where we can select a category and it opens all ads that have been assigned to that specific category with display as shown under "Ads" would be nice as well.

    [Pro] PopUnder placement

    This plugin will force a window to open in the background, without redirecting the user there.

    [Pro] Use Recaptcha to Detect Invalid Traffic

    Using RECAPTCHA can help reduce ads limit on account. It can also help to restrict ads serving to visitors with poor traffic

    Allow Ad label Text to have hyperlink embedded

    Would be very useful for SEO to have the ability to hyperlink the Ad Label text on ads. Would also increase Advertiser access for Advanced Ads Pro | Selling

    Setting/Selecting date as a calender

    Every ad I'm setting up is always from a date further up in the future. Like next Monday to the following Monday (as i sell ads per week). Id love to get a monthly calender when pressing the date box, so I just can select the date I want, rather than need to enter the number by hand every time. Also, if possible, a small box beside like 1 day, 1 week, 1 month, and by pressing that, the end date will automatically be selected from this starting date.

    [Pro] Add a feature to detect DNS-based Adblockers and show them alternative message

    [Pro] A lot of Android users use DNS-based Adblockers. Currently, Advanced Ads Pro with the Adblock module enabled doesn't detect such users. If you'd add such function, it would show alternative message to users even when they're viewing content from Facebook Browsers on via other apps. Btw. the Adblock module doesn't seem to work in Brave Browser. It would also be nice to make it compatible with this browser. (The AdBlock fallback works with the Brave browser, please, reach out to our support if you have any issues with that)

    [Popup Ads] Popup ad by click

    Sometimes I need to show an ad in a bigger size, so it would be nice to click it and it will be shown in a popup instead of a new browser window or tab. I think it would also be nice to popup a link to a website in an popup.

    Sorting ad groups by drag and drop

    It would be useful if the order of the ads in the ad groups in an ad slider could be determined by drag and drop. It is very inconvenient if you want to change the order and you have to manually adjust all the numbers of the ads in the group each time.

    What happens with Feature Requests?

    We take feature requests and voting very seriously. Once an item is among the top 5 to 10, we start looking into them and estimate if they are technically possible and match the purpose of Advanced Ads. Only very few items get removed after that.

    There is no deadline, but you can be sure that we are working in some way or another on the top items.

    Here are a few examples of implemented features that have been on this list.

    You can find here a list of features that we deprecated over time.
