I used this kind of template mod on previous vBulletin 3.8, but it didn't work any longer with version 4.xx so I made a new one.
What it does
On forum home, it displays one or more adsense codes like forum. It behaves like one or more fake forums (see attached images).
You can display it/them anyhere using the "display order" in forum manager.
How to
1 - Go to admincp and create one or two new forums:
Give them any name you want
In the description, put your adsense code (it should be a 468x60px adsense block for a correct display), then these settings are important:
2 - Two templates must be edited:
forumhome_forumbit_level1_post template is the forum category list
In both template:
Find:
And replace with:
X, Y are the newly created forum IDs
The result is shown in the first attached image below.
More...
To catch visitors' attention, you may wish to display a different forum icon next to these adsense codes (see second attached image). To achieve this, you must edit the same templates.
Find:
And replace with:
X and Y are your new forum
The URL must be your forum URL.
You can use the icon you want. This one is only an example (see second attached image)
