any tips as for which core files I need to modify for google adsense.

You don't need to edit code. FireBoard has a several module position allready include.
Create a module position on your joomla admin

Joomla admin > Site > Template Manager >Module Positions

Create :
fb_1
fb_2
fb_bottom
fb_top
fb_msg_1 (After first post)
fb_msg_2 (After second post)

You can assign any module on those position.

for google adsense module check joomla extention directory or create new html module, put your google code in text area.

Thanks

I have joomla 1.5, I got a reply here, saying I wont be able to use the method u had just mentioned. I was hoping to then modify some files.

cheers

Using Fireboard 1.0.4 and Joomla 1.5.3
I am trying to enable Adsense inside Fireboard.
Adsense clearly works when I publish it to Joomla position like user1 but it doesn't work when I publish it to fb_msg_1 position for use inside fireboard

In components/com_fireboard/template/default/message.php, there is the following lines
<?php
if ($mmm == 1)
{
?>
<div class = "fb_msg_1">
<?php
mosLoadModules('fb_msg_1', -2);
?>
</div>
<?php
}
?>
<?php
}
?>

This generates "<jdoc:include type="modules" name="fb_msg_1" style="xhtml"/> " in html output.
In Joomla 1.5.3, it should be using <jdoc:include type="modules" name="fb_msg_1" style="raw" /> instead of mosLoadModules('fb_msg_1', -2) so I modified the line "<?php mosLoadModules('fb_msg_1', -2);?>" to "<jdoc:include type="modules" name="fb_msg_1" style="xhtml"/>" but the line "<jdoc:include type="modules" name="fb_msg_1" style="xhtml"/>" fails to be parsed.

Why is fireboard producing the raw file instead of a parsed version? Is there somewhere further up in the code where it should be parsed?

I would also like to know that.

The solution is to modify the template in com_fireboard/template/default/message.php
You need to change these lines:

Code:

<?php if (mosCountModules('fb_msg_1')) { ?>     <div class = "fb_msg_1">         <?php         mosLoadModules('fb_msg_1', -2);         ?>     </div> <?php } ?>

To this

Code:

<?php         if($mmm == 1) { ?>             <div class = "fb_msg_1">                 <!--<?php                 //mosLoadModules('fb_msg_1', -2);                 //?>-->             </div>             //START GOOGLE ADSENSE CODE                   <script type="text/javascript"><!--                 google_ad_client = "<google publisher id>";                 /* google_ads */                 google_ad_slot = "<adsense id>";                 google_ad_width = 468;                 google_ad_height = 60;                 //-->             </script>             <script type="text/javascript"                 src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js">             </script>             //END GOOGLE ADSENSE CODE     <?php } ?>

You'll need to replace the Google Adsense code with whatever is produced by Google adsense.

Hope this helps

Thanks, I finally made it!

Any ideea how to make it work with J1.5.X ?

Thanks

Well, I'm using 1.5.4 and this code is working for me

This hack works for me on Joomla 1.5.3 and Fireboard 1.0.4
