SECTION 20 — AD BANNER MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

20.1 Overview

Teachers manage their own ad banners (course promotions, announcements, etc.) which are dynamically injected into their PDF outputs. Ad management is in Teacher Account Settings → Ad Banners.

20.2 Ad Banner Configuration

Each ad banner has the following fields:

20.3 Document Type Assignment

  • Each ad banner is assigned to one or more document types: Newsletter, Compilation, Magazine (any combination).
  • Assignment is per-banner, not per-document-instance.

20.4 Ad Scheduling Controls

Each ad banner has scheduling settings that determine when it appears:
Multiple schedule types can be combined for a single ad banner (e.g. always daily AND also on specific festive dates).

20.5 Injection Logic

  • During WeasyPrint PDF rendering, the backend:
    1. Checks which ad banners are active for the document’s Teacher, document type, and document date.
    2. Injects qualifying ads into the PDF at designated positions in the WeasyPrint template.
    3. Scheduling rules are evaluated server-side — not client-side.
