Banners compatibility resolved
The client banner upload functions have been updated to more heavily rely on OpenX functions as to resolve backwards and forwards compatibility issues.
I have also removed the chmod on install. If you have OpenX plugin file permissions problems, make sure permissions are defined correctly in
/openx/lib/OX/Plugin/PluginManager.php on line 52 .

as long as you use the correct path in the init.php include at top of files.UPGRADE:

the backwards compatibility problem has been fixed and version upgraded.To fix script permission problems on a dedicated host requiring 777

Advertiser Not Being Added Correctly
Because of the recent upgrades OpenX has made, I have had to update the advertiser creation after payment function within RevMax.
This is the last three months meant if you bought RevMax one day it worked with the latest OpenX release in this version of 2.8. , or at least the prior version of 2.8.
This may have left purchasers with the wrong version of the payment scripts for the version of OpenX being used, and clients not being added to openx after payment was completed.
To eliminate this problem the download package now contains within the clients folder, all three versions of the payment scripts for each 3 different sub versions.
If using OpenX 2.8.1 – 2.8.2 use paypal.php, anotify.php, or wpnotify.php and make sure it is correct within RevMax settings.
If using OpenX 2.8.3 use paypal.2.8.3.php, anotify.2.8.3.php, or wpnotify.2.8.3.php and make sure it is correct within RevMax settings.
If using OpenX 2.8.4 use paypal.2.8.4.php, anotify.2.8.4.php, or wpnotify.2.8.4.php and make sure it is correct within RevMax settings.
I am looking to build in a backwards compatible model asap to eliminate this problem in the future.
I have added downloads to every one’s account, that has purchased, so you can download the latest package, from the download link in your purchase email.
If you have problems downloading or installing contact me.
Admin interface facelift
I have been working feverishly to get RevMax back up to date and all functions tested. While going through the code this week I have updated the admin interface for a cleaner look. Lots of little fixes.
I have also added back affid and agencyid to the payment tables for future affiliate tracking.
I have been looking for a upgrade solution all day, and nothing seems consistent. When running upgrade on a cpanel server, it doesn’t update the tables for me and sets newly uploaded file permissions at 777, wich is a no, no, for cpanel.
To do a full upgrade, first backup your tables if you have any info to save, and your openx config file for settings, then disable RevMax and uninstall, Reinstall the new package, then merge your data into the new tables.
You can preview it here.
Package available at download link.

Multiple auto zones added
I have aded the ability to create a ad package that will link the advertisers campaign to multiple publisher zones.
To use, enter in zone ids like so: 1,2,45,32 comma separated, in the auto zone id field.
All payment gateways updated to current version and functions. All campaign revenue reporting should be available in each.
Package available at the purchase email download link. If you have data you wish to save and are unclear on upgrading Contact me and I will be happy to do the upgrade for you at no fee to current RevMax 4 users.
Added companion positioning in ad packages
Lots of little fixes this week:
fixed subscription end date on subscription packages.
Fixed revenue reporting under campaign. Campaign now shows cpc cost if cpc campaign, click cost if adclick, and tenancy cost per day on subscriptions.
Fixed limit impressions, limit clicks on signup. Now when a campaign is purchased, the total ad views , clicks, days, are divided by the time set on ad package, so if selling ad views and subscription variables show 1 month, the amount of ad views is divided by 30 days, and set as the daily limit.
Added companion positioning in ad packages.
Download package available at purchase link. email me if you have problems.
