Front End Functionality
The best way to describe how the plugin works is to show live example. Look at the top of “Live Preview” website. Do you see hyper-linked string inside of color (yellow) rectangle? This is Simple String. Your visitors/advertisers can publish their own ad string there.
Now click at the small link “Publish your link here for 0.95 USD” at the bottom right corner of the box. You will be redirected to page for advertisers. On this page you can fill up simple form and click “Continue” button. If everything is OK, the system asks you to confirm provided information and redirects to PayPal, Payza/AlertPay or InterKassa to complete the payment. After that your ad string will be included into rotation.
In case of several strings, every time plugin select one of them randomly. During the day all ad strings are displayed approximately the same number of times. Your ad string will be shown as many times as you purchased. Of course, if somebody cheats and clicks “refresh” button many times the plugin doesn’t count them as separate shows. At the end you get statistics about your ad string by e-mail.
Installation
- Install and activate the plugin. Once activated, it creates menu “Simple String” in left side column in the admin area.
