Manage adverts
Adverts need your attention from time to time. AdRotate has several warning mechanisms to help you keep up with what needs doing. Additionally a number of checks are done regularly to help tell you what's going on with adverts.
Colored end dates for adverts
- Red - The advert is expired. Immediate action required!
- Orange - This advert is about to expire. You have less than 2 days to sort this out!
- Yellow - This advert expires in less than 7 days!
- Green - All seems well!
Dashboard notifications
When issues arise a dashboard notification will show. You can configure which notifications you may see in the AdRotate settings.
Read more about this feature on the Notifications manual.
Email notifications
[- ADROTATE PRO FEATURE -]
When something happens with your adverts, for example when they expire or when there are configuration errors, AdRotate will email you periodically to tell you about it.
Read more about what kind emails AdRotate Pro sends on the Notifications manual.
Bulk actions
Removing, renewing, reset stats, activate, deactivate. You do it with bulk actions. Select any number of adverts, select the action you want to perform from the bulk actions menu and click go.
Each overview of adverts has a tailored menu with relevant options.
Persistent error status
In some cases the notification system keeps on telling you about a problem that you may have already solved. This is likely because the advert status is cached and checked on a schedule. The message may show for a few minutes until the cache is refreshed again.
To immediately clear the notifications you can re-check each advert yourself by clicking the re-evaluate all ads button in AdRotate Settings > Maintenance.
Of-course if even after this the notification won't go away something might actually be wrong with your ads. Check the Manage Adverts dashboard to see which ones.
