Luminate Ads are not displaying on my posts,Given below my discussion thread with Luminate Team. My Question Hi Luminate team, I am quite new to Luminate,recently i published my blog with Luminate,my blog is primarily targeted to ATG Commerce developers to solve their day to day issues during development and few general topics,currently i am getting a traffic of around 100-200 daily pageviews,but my revenue is shown as 0$,My Current reports says i have 181 image views and i am not seeing the luminate icon or any other ads coming on my images,i can see only the luminate icon when i put my image and publish my post for sometiem,but after that it disappears,is there anything i am missing or its the usual behaviour and will take some time to get the images start working,or is it region specific ? highly appreciate your response. Response from Luminate team I am seeing the icons and adds here: http://atgtipsandtweaks. blogspot.com/2012/06/atg- coupon...

This is the continuation of the post  configuring pricelist . Before starting your development with Promotion please note the point, Promotion rules are cached for efficiency,as a developer who edit rules frequently,you should not turn off the caching mechanism.To do so,set the maximumCacheSize and maximumCacheEntries properties  of the atg/commerce/pricing/PMDLcache component to 0. Now go to ACC Pricing go to Promotion,Create a new promotion of type 'Item Discount - Percent Off' Now create a PMDL Rule,this is to specify the condition of the discount. Now set few properties according to your requirements.My values just for  reference. Automatically apply to all Orders - Global Promotion,make it true or false appropriately.Value - >false. Discount Percentage - give an integer value as your percentage of Discount for that item.Value ->  5 . Give to a customer more than once - Number of times per user Promotion can be given.Val...

Price Lists are created for sites when a contract lists specific pricing that is not promotional pricing or conditional pricing. In ACC open the tab Pricing and then click on Price Lists. You will need to check first to insure that a price list hasn’t already been created for your site. If no folder exists, create new price list folder by first selecting the folder you want your new price list to be placed into and then clicking on the icon at the top right of the screen to create the folder. When you have the folder selected click on the new folder you have created and then click on New Price List.Type in the Name. Base price field is optional. Select the End date and set it as a future date.Click OK. Now you can set/modify the price for the items you need. Search for the product: items of type Product whose Name contains (ignore case) name item you want to change. Enter a new price for the item.SAVE.Click OK. Now you will have to test your site to insure that the Pr...

I hope you know how to place two ads side by side,its pretty simple. Add two div tags,with float property of each set to right,left and margin pixel as 1px, see the screen shots below .W ell this works if there is no content below the ads. If we plan to place ads side by side above your content,and  if there is enough space between the two ads, content might overlap,it will automatically fit in between the ads. you can do some tweaks for this .I ncrease the margin pixel size of your container which holds the ads which will  eventually reduce the extra space between  ads. I modified the margin pixel size of the second container .See the modifications below. <div style='float:left; Margin: 1px;'> Your Ad Code </div> <div style='float:left; Margin: 40px;'> Your Ad Code </div> Now my ads are happily displaying side by side without any overlapping content !!!.  Also see the posts Blog option to delete images Lumi...

How to enable the scenario buttons in ACC ? Normally Scenarios are not enabled by default in ATG,You need to do a small tweak here to start working with Scenarios,Scenario Templates. There are basically two places you need to do change before working with scenarios  Database changes Use any client tool(toad or sqlplus or heidisql for this)to connect your database,find the table  dss_server_id and modify the value like below. Note - Your server_id is the computer name,to find it,go to MyComputer->Properties->Computer name,and the port is the drp_prt, to find it go to atg component administration view navigate to /atg/dynamo/server/DrpServer -> port,ideally it should be 8850,unless specified other wise. Local Config Changes Create a file scenarioManager.xml inside the folder C:\ATG\ATGXXX\home\localconfig\atg\scenario Add the entry like below and restart your server. G...
