More options for fallback behaviour

Open JasonBarnabe opened this issue 5 years ago • 2 comments

As a publisher, I'm fine with the general concept of showing fallback ads for CodeFund's benefit, but looking at my stats I can see some properties on some days showing 60% fallback ads. This is significant traffic that I'm not directly benefiting from, so I would like more options on how it is handled.

What I would like is the option to have CodeFund inject HTML of my choosing as a fallback. I could then use this to insert different ad code. To keep some benefit to CodeFund, perhaps I could set a percentage to do CodeFund's fallback, with the rest doing my provided HTML.

@JasonBarnabe I agree 100%. This is something that our competitors offer which we really love. The workaround right now is to use our callback script (see here) to render code on your end when there are no paid ads to show.

We will add this to our Q2 agenda.

@coderberry Using the callback script works for what I want to do and is actually less of a workaround than my initial idea (I was just going to put script in the fallback HTML anyway). So I would not use a fallback HTML feature if it were developed.
