Okay, so I've installed the Ad module, as well as Eck and Features modules, but I don't see anything anywhere in the Admin related to the Ad module.

I have no idea what to do next, how to create adverts, campaigns etc.

The text on the Ad homepage says to have a look in the Documentation folder in the installed module's folder. There's nothing there. The read text file contains some vague instructions to do something in broken English, and I can't find any tutorials online.

I'm completely stuck, so can anyone help me get started, please?

You can follow the below steps to resolve the issue:

1. Install Ad module and All Required module.
2. Go to Taxonomy => Add vocabulary To Advertisement size.
3. Go to Content => Add content in Create Ad Example.
4. All Content set in Published Option.
5. Add new view => Set in Block => Add Fields And Save Block.
6. Structure => Block And Set Position to show your ad in Home Page.

Feel free to add query/concern regarding the same.

Many thanks, unfortunately I am unable to do the following:

2. Go to Taxonomy => Add vocabulary To Advertisement size.
There is no Vocabulary called 'Advertisement size'. Should I create one, and if i do what terms do I list in there?

3. Go to Content => Add content in Create Ad Example.
There is no 'Ad example' content listed in the 'Add content' page, so cannot be created.

4. All Content set in Published Option.
Sorry, this instruction is not clear, but assume if the above two options do not work then this point doesn't matter.

Please advise, thank you.

Hi, I had the same problem. I noticed that there was installed another module with Ad, it's Ad Example. I enabled Ad Example and now it's working right.
I think Ad Example must be mandatory not optional if it's so important for this module

@offthehookdesign, Please check the screenshots with order I have attached to clear your queries.

All settings and content in advertise module. Check your permission also, sometime ad is not shown because permission is not set.
