How to Download Ads Manager

Ads Manager is available for download here on Ultrapack. After downloading the .zip file, install it under Plugins > Add New > Upload Plugin, select the file, and activate it while wpDiscuz is already running. Once activated, banner settings appear within the wpDiscuz menu in the admin panel.

For those who already use wpDiscuz as the central comment system, Ads Manager expands the section’s use by turning it into an advertising channel managed within the same panel. The combination of five fixed positions, random rotation, segmentation by role, and date scheduling covers the most common monetization scenarios without requiring manual template editing or inserting PHP code into theme files.
