Advertising does not belong in atom.module

Issue Summary

While it is good to have advertising functionality in feeds, controlling where the advertising comes from, YPN or others, belongs in other modules. I suggest collaborating with the maintainer of ad.module.

Comments

#1

Agreed. This has no place in this module. This belongs in an ad-type module that can alter the node object on rss building.

#2

Status:active» fixed

Ad stuff was removed in cvs revision 1.31 a while back.

#3

It's still in the DRUPAL-6--1 branch.

#4

True, but I think it would be poor taste to yank functionality in the middle of a core state - that's why I figured it would just be gone as part of the D7 upgrade.

#5

Meh, it's contrib, not core. :) If there's a better solution out there, why not remove it and add a drupal_set_message() that basically says "Hey sorry we removed this feature, but here's a way better module if you want this feature."

#6

Status:active» fixed

Removed from the DRUPAL-6--1 branch. Update message is provided if the feature was used directing people to ad.module (and sub-module ad_embed.module) or adsense_injector.module. Synced the HEAD update function with DRUPAL-6--1.
