Ads displaying image for short time. [#2355477]

After creating, and publishing both a Campaign, and Ad. The image would display in the image preview in editor. Directly after saving it would show up on ad page. Once refreshed the image would not display. When opening the url for the image the file promotions where changed would not display directly. Changed the storage location to one I knew was public, the image folder of my theme (bad idea) when trying it made all the images on my site disappear(had to restore backup). Also disabled Clean URLs - No change. I don't know if it is with my hosting or with the Module. Any help you could give me would be nice. If you need any other info please let me know.

I have a workaround if anyone is having the same problem. It is not a fix, but if you use html in the txt you can ftp your add image to the site.

html code looks like this

<center><img src="Image URL" alt=""></center>

Every thing else works so maybe this will not be how I have to do it for long, but it works for now.

I had the same problem as described above.

Little Workaround for me: I checked "Clicks" within the Ad Campaign and gave it a high number. The campaign will be set inactive as soon the provided "Clicks" will be reached.

I though this would be a simple issue but after digging around the source code i could not figure out why this behavior occurs. Any help would be great.

Greets,

Chris

As I stated before: Tried using html in txt field no luck the image will display but the url does not work. The epic fail of this is making me reconsider using drupal at all. The site I am constructing is based on advertising. There needs to be a working solution for this problem as well as the "Notice: Undefined variable: plugins in simpleads_wysiwyg_plugin() (line 89 of /sites/all/modules/simpleads/includes/simpleads.filter.inc)" problem. Minnur the fact that you have not even responded to countless tries to get information shows that: "This in fact is not Under active development at all!"
Without a timely response to the problems stated above. The fact of the matter is I will have to find a cms that the developers will stand be hind there work.
