CraigMeade Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 I wanted to run ads from Amazon instead of Google but couldn't figure out how to run the Amazon widget on my site. There's no generic widget module. So I tried placing the Amazon widget code in the Google Adsense module where the Google ad code would normally go. It works 90% correctly. The only flaw is that it doesn't seem to update from Amazon 100% of the time. That is, if I change the ad format in my Amazon Associates account, it doesn't always update on my site. Even when I manually update the code. But all in all, using the Amazon code in the Google Adsense module works fine. I'm pleased with this almost fully successful work-around. But wondered if anybody had any tips on how I might adjust the module to get it updating properly. We really need a P'shop module that we can drop any third party widget into and run on the FO. I suspect a stripped down version of the Google Adsense module could do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CraigMeade Posted January 31, 2012 Author Share Posted January 31, 2012 Yes, using the Google Adsense module actually works perfectly fine, but your module is also ideal. Nice work with that one Phrasespot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CraigMeade Posted January 31, 2012 Author Share Posted January 31, 2012 I would mark this as SOLVED, but the forum software isn't giving me that option right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
