The "bretteleben.de Google Ad Manager Plugin" and the "bretteleben.de Google Ad Manager Module", both for Joomla 1.5, allow you to use the Google Ad Manager with Joomla. The plugin has to be installed and activated, it does the real work. Besides, it allows you to publish Ads, delivered by the Google Ad Manager within content items. The module allows to display Ads, delivered by the Google Ad Manager in module-positions.

Both, the plugin and the module come with full support for Google Ad Manager page-level attributes that influence ad selection, AdSense parameters passed to the current page and AdSense parameters passed to the current slot.

New in Version 1.1.0:
- support for multiple Publisher-IDs

Google Ad Manager offers the possibility to use multiple Publisher-IDs on a page and doing so show Ads from different Publishers that make use of Google Ad Manager. If you use Google Ad Manager to organize and display Google AdSense, Ads from Affiliate Networks and direct sold Ads, this feature will not be of interest for you.
It is of importance e.g. if you don´t use Google Ad Manager yourself but want to show Ads on your pages, you get from different People (or companies) that make use of Google Ad Manager.
I don´t want to let unmentioned, that this feature is described as a workaround with the potential to create problems by Google (in the Google Ad Manager support forum).
As it is my goal to reproduce to complete functionality Google Ad Manager offers with this extension, I add the feature anyway.
How to use it, is described in the HowTo´s.

New in Version 1.0.0 (2009-01-15):
- adopt the - updated by Google - initial Script-Tags which now pass W3C-Validation
- remove the surrounding DIV-Tag (class "begam") because Google uses Identities for its AdSlots
