Package Info

This plugin is meant to simplify the embedding of TLA Ad Code into EE templates. You no longer need to paste a bunch of raw code into your templates and enable PHP parsing, instead you can just drop in a single EE-tag. Additionally you no longer need to manually create the XML-file on the server, the plugin-tag will do this for you as well. This is especially useful if you sell links for different entries displayed in a multi-entry-template.Tested with version 2.3.1 of Expression Engine

Version 2.2.5
