Re-add desired features from older module versions

Created on 21 May 2025, 17 days ago

Problem/Motivation

The following features were listed on the old module page but are now missing from the 11.x release:

  • auto-generated ad blocks supporting a configurable number of ads
  • advertisements can have multiple owners
  • granular per-advertisement/per-owner permissions system
  • activation/expiration scheduling based on time, clicks or views
  • an ad_report plug-in for basic graphical reports (depends on the Google Charts API)
  • an ad_actions plug-in which can be used to schedule automatic email notifications (depends on the token module)
  • an ad_remote plug-in for hosting ads on remote (non-Drupal) websites
  • support for any number of configurable ad groups, utilizing Drupal's taxonomy (category) subsystem
  • display ads based on node ids (nids), or taxonomy terms (categories)
  • file-based caching for improved performance
  • support for external caching methods
