How to change the ad position

[Solved]

Foliovision › Forums › FV Player › How to … › How to change the ad position

  • Andrew S. 11 years, 10 months ago

    Hi,

    your plugin now supports ad, that’s good news.

    1. it does not place the ad at the bottom of the video, but instead a few pixels up, is that because of the watermark?
    2. I can change the link color of the link text for the things in the <p> brackets but not the text in the h2 from your example
    3. how do u change the color of the box the ad text is in?

    what would be perfect is
    1. a black box that is placed at the bottom of the movie
    2. white click text for both the h2 and p links

    what does the new mobile video box checkbox do by the way?

    Thanks!

    Hello Andrew,

    1. Placement of the ad can be controlled by CSS. If you position it too low, you will have to make sure it shows behind the control bar. A CSS code like this takes care of both the bottom placement and positioning behind the control bar (assuming your main content wrapper is #content, like in 95% of WP templates):

    #content .wpfp_custom_ad { bottom: 0; z-index: 1; }

    2. Using similar CSS you can change color of any of the H2 or similar elements inside of it. Following should change all the text to red in most templates:

    #content .wpfp_custom_ad { bottom: 0; z-index: 1; color: red; }

    You might need to include a more specific CSS selector for headings.

    3. Color of the ad box and popup box can also be changed using CSS, but I noticed we used inline CSS style attribute for it (it uses the same color as control bar). We will have to move that styling into the header to allow you to use CSS to overrule our color.

    This fix will be included in next version.

    We will discuss this in our team, perhaps we should include color settings for all of these ad colors, for people who don’t know CSS that well or want easier setup. The problem is that there will always be some detail which won’t be in our settings, it’s not easy to add it all, so we are looking for the best set of settings.

    4. Mobile video checkbox lets you add a mobile version of your video. We are still figuring out the ideal detection of the mobile devices though. Normally this is done using user agent strings, but we would like to make sure users with retina (or similar) displays or users or high speed mobile internet get the quality version.

    Thanks,
    Martin

    Hello Andrew,

    version 2.1.27 includes ad styling presets. Both have white background, color of links and text can be set using the existing color options.

    First one puts the ad into the normal location – bit above the control bar, aligned to center. The second preset makes it stick to the bottom of the video – that’s basically your preset.

    You can also do your ad CSS additions there. It’s all in Settings -> FV WordPress Flowplayer -> Ads -> Show styling options

    Thanks,
    Martin
