To ensure Adobe Animate CC compatibility with Terminus, please complete the below steps for each HTML5 creative you want to upload
Step 1. Publish/Export Creative in HTML Canvas Format:
Step 2. Using a text editor such as Brackets or Atom, remove the following line of code if it's present:
var clickTag = "http://YOUR_URL_HERE.com/";
Step 3. Creative dimension must be declared using the below format in the <head> section:
<meta name="ad.size" content="width=W,height=H">
Example - <meta name="ad.size" content="width=728,height=90">
Step 4. Find the closing </body> tag and paste the following block of code right before it.
<script type="text/javascript">
function getParameterByName(name) {
name = name.replace(/[\[]/, "\\[").replace(/[\]]/, "\\]");
var regex = new RegExp("[\\?&]" + name + "=([^&#]*)"),
results = regex.exec(location.search);
return results === null ? "" :
decodeURIComponent(results[1].replace(/\+/g, " "));
}
var banner = document.getElementById('YOUR_CANVAS_ID_HERE');
banner.onclick=function(){
var clickTag = getParameterByName('clickTAG');
window.open(clickTag, "_blank");
};
</script>
Step 5. Replace YOUR_CANVAS_ID_HERE with the CANVAS ID= from your <canvas> tag directly below the opening <body> tag. This ID is typically "canvas"
Step 6. Zip the .html , .js and images folder together.
- DO NOT zip the files as a folder underneath a folder, the .html needs to be on the root level of the zip directory.
Step 7. Upload the .zip file to your Terminus tactic and set your landing page URL in the Terminus UI.
