ADS QUESTION NOOB

jeremy.carter29 · June 21, 2014, 4:41pm

Hello i need to test and use 3 to 5 different ads publisher such as

inmobi

admob

revmob and others in my game made in corona but i m confused there is only one build file so i want to ask should i insert code of 3 publisher in same build setting file or what ?

EXAMPLE :

I need players to see the INMOBI ads in main screen then changed the scene and then admob Ads came up and then changed the scene again and revmob scene came up

so after that they see all ads main menu will appear

How can i use 3 different publisher in same game tutorial will be much appreciated thanks

jeremy.carter29 · June 22, 2014, 3:13pm

I build it but ads are not showing in android

You probably should be using the new version of the AdMob plugin. If you’ve just started on this, then your AdMob portal is probably the V2 version. See: http://docs.coronalabs.com/plugin/ads-admob-v2/index.html

Google will stop serving the v1 service at the end of August.

Can you post your build.settings?

jeremy.carter29 · June 22, 2014, 4:47pm

settings = { orientation = { default = "portrait", supported = { "portrait" } }, iphone = { plist = { CFBundleIconFile = "Icon.png", CFBundleIconFiles = { "Icon.png", "Icon@2x.png", "Icon-60.png", "Icon-60@2x.png", "Icon-72.png", "Icon-72@2x.png", "Icon-76.png", "Icon-76@2x.png", "Icon-Small.png", "Icon-Small@2x.png", "Icon-Small-40.png", "Icon-Small-40@2x.png", "Icon-Small-50.png", "Icon-Small-50@2x.png", }, }, }, } settings = { plugins = { ["plugin.google.play.services"] = { publisherId = "com.coronalabs" }, }, }

this is my build setting

rob · June 22, 2014, 5:05pm

settings = { &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;orientation = &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;{ &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;default = "portrait", &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;supported = { "portrait" } &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;}, &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;iphone = &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;{ &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;plist = &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;{ &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;CFBundleIconFile = "Icon.png", &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;CFBundleIconFiles = &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;{ &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; "Icon.png", &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; "Icon@2x.png", &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; "Icon-60.png", &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; "Icon-60@2x.png", &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; "Icon-72.png", &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; "Icon-72@2x.png", &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; "Icon-76.png", &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; "Icon-76@2x.png", &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; "Icon-Small.png", &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; "Icon-Small@2x.png", &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; "Icon-Small-40.png", &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; "Icon-Small-40@2x.png", &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; "Icon-Small-50.png", &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; "Icon-Small-50@2x.png", &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;}, &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;}, &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;}, &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; plugins = &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; { &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; ["plugin.google.play.services"] = &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; { &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; publisherId = "com.coronalabs" &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; }, &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; },&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; } &nbsp;

You have two settings tables. The plugins belong in side the other settings table.

jeremy.carter29 · June 22, 2014, 5:09pm

I have one build.setting file i m talking about of SIMPLE POOL i m making same project like that

But i didnot understand what u mean by i have two setting tables ?

rob · June 22, 2014, 5:59pm

The code you posted above has two settings = {} tables. The second one overwrites the first one. Try using the one I posted.

jeremy.carter29 · June 22, 2014, 6:32pm

I have used same code previously and still same error build

settings =
{
plugins =
{
[“plugin.google.play.services”] =
{
publisherId = “com.coronalabs”
},
},
}

but what i see is

This version of the plugin uses the latest version of the AdMob SDK and only works with build 2014.2264 or later.

So is this the cause ? of build error ?

jeremy.carter29 · June 22, 2014, 7:05pm

if i m doing mistake kindly paste build setting file along with your code i m fed up

rob · June 22, 2014, 11:44pm

I did paste the working code in a couple of posts back.

jeremy.carter29 · June 23, 2014, 2:31pm

100 time tested same error coming i dont understand why you are keep saying that code is not correctly inserted ? i already inserted correctly actually the error is in BUILD system with latest RELEASE OF SDK CORONA which is either not supporting by ADMOB V2 or Maybe this is bug
