Creating Ads

You can create a new ad by navigating to smart-ad-manager/ads/create page and then providing a valid name and HTML body of the Ad.

Placing Ads

In order to place the ads and track clicks you must place the following JS in your header (typically this would go in your blade layout file)

<script src="{{ asset('vendor/smart-ads/js/smart-banner.min.js') }}"></script>

There are two ways in which you can place ads / banners in your application

(Manual Placement)

To manually place an ad you can copy the blade component code from the view ad page and place it at desired location in your blade file. For example an ad with the slug of your-example-ad can be placed with the following code.

<x-smart-ad-component slug="your-example-ad"/>

(Auto Placement)

You can choose to auto place at the ads at the desired locations on the website by providing the CSS selector where you are looking to place the ad and choosing the position (Before selector, After selector, inside selector etc. to place the ad)

Tracking Clicks

Tracking clicks is enabled by default and in order for it to work you must include a global meta csrf token in your blade template file, inside the head element of your HTML.

<meta name="csrf-token" content="{{ csrf_token() }}">
