Hide Ads for People Who Donated

I want to be able to remove ads for certain users that have donated to the sites I own (they run XOOPS).

Is there a way to do that or a hack?

Thanks in advance

I'm pretty new to xoops, but here is an approach.

Assign all your "subscribers" to be part of some group.

Then, in the either the php or the template (if the ad rotator is in a template) you check if they are in the group or not and if not, don't print the html to cause the ads.

Pretty simple idea, but provided you can get the specific code you'd need, it should work well.

There may be a simpler solution too. I wouldn't know though.

That would be the best way, and - if I'm right - Xdonate will move people into a different group when a payments made?

(I think it does anyway!)

How do I write a code to put in my Theme.html file so that if they are part of a group, dont do XOOPS Banner.

<{php}>
if (!(Group == 'donaters')) {
<{$xoops_banner}>
}
<{/php}>

So how would I check which group they are part of.

Instead of using the banner ads in XOOPS we created a new block. Then anyone that donated to the site we had xdonations enter them into a group called Donators. Finally we set permissions in the groups not to allow access to the new block (ads) that we created.

Hope this helps

how to realise this without making use of the module xdonations, but some (smarty?)-code within the template of the theme.html ?
Is the code provided above working/correct?

Grtz., Shine

I don't believe xdonations does this - I just checked mine & found no such functionality.

However, I believe the following thread may be of some use to you:

Thanks GUYS!
Rock On!

I modified the code a bit and it worked like a charm.
