Ads not showing up in Joomla! 1.5

[OmegaWow]

Hi all. I registered a few hours ago and am eager to see how this service works. I have heard good things.

I am using the most recent Joomla! 1.5 install, and have everything configured properly (initially). I want to get the text ads up and running (ideally in a module) just to see how they look so I can have an idea of positioning.

I have inserted the ad script chunk into both the template and extension (as discussed in http://forums.x10hosting.com/tutorials/22222-how-insert-ads-joomla.html), but the ads will not show up when I view the site with either one.

My first though it that my ad ID not been processed since I am a new user. Any ideas? I don't want to violate any terms of the EULA.

Hmm, instead of using your name for the ID on the adcode try changing it to 'advanced' , this should auto select the advanced code and not use your name to look it up.

Ah, it seems to be working now. I didn't realize the script linked keywords to ads; I was looking for a text-based ad like Google Adsense. But words are being highlighted now. I think there was a slight hiccup in the ad system before, because now words were being highlighted. Thanks for your help, though! So far the experience has been awesome!
