Category Separation Rule for Ad Placements

You can enable category separation rules in MagBuilder to prevent the placement of an advertisement. Category separation prevents a user from placing ads too close to an ad with the same category.

  • You can enable category separation under Settings > System Configurations > Operations - Production.

  • The system will use the value in the category separation table. To set up page separation based on category, go to Settings > Contacts > Company Categories. When editing or adding a category, you can enter a page separation value for that category. If the value is set to 0, there will be no restriction on placing your advertisement.

  • The system will also limit the placement of editorials based on category. The system will not restrict placement if the separation is set to 0.

  • When adding a new ad line item to a contract, you can choose to override the category separation to 4, 8, or 16.

  • When you go to place an ad, the system will show you the available places for you to place the advertisement.

  • If you try and place an ad too close to another ad, you will get a warning.
