The Placement Configurator Extension is a tool for creating advertising layouts within websites and their pages using the Kiosked PMP framework.
The extension is freely available to install in your browser:
While the extension is running (and enabled via the menu), existing Kiosked scripts are blocked so that users can concentrate on the configuration provided by the extension. Disabling this setting will revert back to any live script running on the site.
After installing the extension you will need to refresh the page that you wish to start configuring so that the extension can correctly attach to it.
You can create multiple configurations before enabling them.
- The
Addbutton creates a new placement that can be run on the current page - The
Enablebutton enables/disables the execution of the extension Savesaves the configuration - reserved for future use.
Each placement can be enabled or disabled using the checkbox on the left-side, and whole placements can be removed using the X on the right-side.
When a new placement is created, you can straight away configure the type (refer to the different placement types available) and size.
When a new placement is created, use the Select button to select the element on the page to attach the placement to. Kiosked placements are primarily attached to existing page structures.
Note that if you're creating an in-screen placement, the Select button will not be available as the placement attaches to the screen border.
After clicking the desired element, the configuration will be updated to match the CSS selector of the element you chose. This CSS selector will appear in the button instead of the Select text. You can click it again at any time to change it.
Beside the Select button lies a frequency control. Clicking this button provides an interface for configuring how often banners are shown on this selector.
Selectors will often provide more than 1 element, and Kiosked supports creating multiple banners using a single selector. Typically all elements under a selector may be chosen to create banners, but this behaviour can easily be changed here. There are several types available:
all- Create banners on all possible elementsfirst- Create banners on the first (or first n) elementslast- Create banners on the last (or last n) elementsevery- Create banners on every 2nd element, for example (step, offset and maximum can also be configured)
Other options are available, per placement, under the far-right settings button. Features such as the visibility of the disclaimer bar or the unit's scaling can be controlled here.
