Advertising suggestions

[Maximvdw]

Suggestions concerning the advertisement section:

1) Incorrect slots for featured resources. The 'Featured resources' slots shows 3/4,
however there is a queue
2) The instructions make it seem like you can pay even when the ad is queued, however this is not the case

3) Status text is very hard to read on a white background

4) Add a way to advertisers to see the amount of ads in the queue

1) Incorrect slots for featured resources. The 'Featured resources' slots shows 3/4,
however there is a queue

There are 3/4 of the slots currently in use, but that is because the person first in the queue hasn't paid yet. Perhaps we could reword it to be better in the future and I should write up a better explanation of the system.

3) Status text is very hard to read on a white background

I'll get this fixed soon, just make it so that the status text never changes colour and just always have it black (or white on dark theme)

4) Add a way to advertisers to see the amount of ads in the queue

I do plan on adding and changing a few things in the ads manager in a future announcement so I will add this to the list.

Thanks, I'll move this to pending.

Thanks, I think 1) and 4) are related then

Yeah. I plan on removing AdSense from the site in the next update and expand the Ads Manager a bit more so it makes sense for me to invest the money into making the system better for users.

Just curious, in in the next update, will you add a bidding system?

another bug:
When you edit an existing ad (in my case featured resource) the category combobox says "Select ..." rather than the
one that was stored when you first created it
