The adMob plugin has always triggered an adListener event when banner ads show (or not). Phases were added to separate loading and showing. It just so happens that “shown” is used to determine completion of the interstitial while it means you got a banner when doing banner ads.
Rob
The docs, tutorial, and forum post all imply it is for interstitials (which is what is most useful right now)
Just hide your banner ad before you show your interstitial ad. Then when your interstitial ad closes, reshow the banner ad. I do this and it all works perfectly.
[quote name=“spacewolf” post=“259038” timestamp=“1407225098”]Just hide your banner ad before you show your interstitial ad. Then when your interstitial ad closes, reshow the banner ad. I do this and it all works perfectly. [/quote] Or they can just fix it and make it work as they said it should.
Very interesting thread since I had the same issue with showing adMob interstitials and banners in the same app when initialising several ad providers (e.g. admob together with inneractive and vungle). I followed “jodiewilliams” advice above and it works perfectly this way. For some reasons, the tutorial here does not work for me at all.
Interestingly, if I only initialise adMob and no other ad provider, I can use both banner and interstitial ads. If I initialise additional ad providers, this fails. When printing the event.response to the console adMob says that the ad request was successful but could not be fulfilled because of a lack of inventory. Still, if I use the method as describe by “jodiewilliams” above, all works fine.
A bug in Corona?
I figured it out!!
The problem whit this tutorial (and also for most of us) is that when we show the ads we write a table name wrongly, the tutorial says that when showing the ads you should put the appID but the name of the table attribute is " appId". After that my code just works perfectly. Hope everyone can read this and fix the code. Also, Rob, please fix the tutorial.
Hi HyperBeard Games, I am not sure if I can follow you completely. Does this apply to both initialising and showing the ads? Could you please post an example? This would be greatly appreciated.
Sure, let me explain. When you
this is how you init:
ads.init( "admob", "ca-app-pub-XXXXXX/XXXXXXX")
it doesn’t matter if you initialize with the banners or the interstitial
now, this is how you show:
local interstitialID = "ca-app-pub-XXXXXXXXXXXX/XXXXXXXXXX" local bannerID = "ca-app-pub-XXXXXXXXXXXX/XXXXXXXXXX" if showInterstitials then ads.show("interstitial", {appId= interstitialID}) else ads.show( "banner", { x=0, y=0 , interval=10, appId = bannerID}) end
what is really important here is to remember that the table value appId is not spelled appID. I saw that most of the code pasted here and the tutorial have this error.
Good catch!
This has been fixed.
Rob
Thank you!
Great, works for me, too - thank you for pointing this out!

It’s going to be hard to answer your question for several reasons.
One your code is hard to read because there code is not formatted well. Please post your code inside of and tags (leaving out the space after the [)
Next, I’m not sure I understand what your problem really is? Are you getting errors? You need to provide a better description of what’s going on.
What version of Corona SDK are you running?
