Advance Editing

If you wanna edit when ads are shown or/and when the "BUY PRO" dialog should be shown, then follow this.

** Example & Info :

- About Ads

Shows ads in between min and max value randomly when user clicks on Apply Homescreen Wallpaper button only.

Example : Min = 2, Max = 4 : User will see an ad randomly between 2 to 4 when he/she tires to apply Homescreen Wallpaper. In easy words, either the ad popup will be shown the second time or 3rd, or maybe 4th time after "Apply" button is clicked.

This method is used so that the user/s doesn't get too annoyed with too many ads, &/or also have no static pattern which will prevent them from playing tricks.

Recommended value is 2 & 4 for ads.

- About "BUY PRO" ALert Dialog

This alert dialog is shown after an ad has been closed by the user, but just like the ads, even this dialog is written to randomly show between min/max value so that it doesn't mess the UX.

Example : Min = 2, Max = 4 : User will see a dialog after he/she has closed either the second ad, third, or maybe the fourth one.

Recommended value is 2 & 5 for this alert dialog.

To edit,

• Inside dashboard_configurations.xml

  • Scroll down to line number 140

        <!-- Min Number -->
    <string name="ad_min_count">2</string>
    <!-- Max Number -->
    <string name="ad_max_count">4</string>

    <!-- Min Number -->
    <string name="ad_closemin_count">2</string>
    <!-- Max Number -->
    <string name="ad_closemax_count">5</string>

Change "Min Number" & "Max Number" with your own numbers.
