1. The required libraries installation.

Load the archive with plugin to the site. Use the "Extensions" - "Installation" section available at YOUR_HOST/administrator/index.php?option=com_installer.

Specify the path to the archive in the "Install from the URL-address" margin. Or select the file on the computer and then click "Install".

The system installs a new "sape.ru" component.

2. "Sape.ru" component setup.

Use the "Components" - "sape-ru" section for module setup available at YOUR_HOST/administrator/index.php?option=com_saperu.

All settings are based on specification of the sape.ru user ID in the "_SAPE_USER" margin and selection of the monetizing options:

  • Simple links
  • Contextual links
  • Articles
  • Teasers
  • RTB

For the normal teasers operation select the file's name indicating images. It is specified in sape.ru settings (site's settings - teasers - the file's name indicating images).

The file will be generated by the module independently while selecting its name. Installation of the debug mode flag will activate the debug information output during output of the blocks. For more details see - http://help.sape.ru/sape/faq/270

3. The modules placement

For module placement containing the output of the respective components of monetization, use the " Extensions" - "Modules" section available at DOMEN/administrator/index.php?option=com_modules.

Click "Create" to add the module or select an already existing component's module "sape-ru". There are 4 types of blocks that are supplied with sape-ru:

  • Sape.ru Articles is the output of the articles preview;
  • Sape.ru Links is the links output;
  • Sape.ru RTB is the RTB blocks output;
  • Sape.ru teasers is the teaser blocks output.

Attention! Each module has its placement parameters: position, publication dates, state and etc. To get more information about modules managing see the joomla documentation (https://docs.joomla.org/Module)
