Interstitial iAd does not have an X button

Question

I use Swift to implement interstitial ads in my application. I managed to get him to show interstitial ads, but there is no “X” button to get rid of ads. Why is this?

Answer 1

I also can not find the answer why the built-in framework does not provide button closure, but in the end I use the following solution.

//iAD interstitial definition with custom placeHolderView and close button //you do not need to add anything to interface builder. All is done with code var interstitial:ADInterstitialAd! var placeHolderView:UIView! var closeButton:UIButton! //Full Implemantation of iAD interstitial and delegate methods func cycleInterstitial(){ // create a new interstitial. We set the delegate so that we can be notified interstitial = ADInterstitialAd() interstitial.delegate = self; } func presentInterlude(){ // If the interstitial managed to load, then we'll present it now. if (interstitial.loaded) { placeHolderView = UIView(frame: self.view.frame) self.view.addSubview(placeHolderView) closeButton = UIButton(frame: CGRect(x: 270, y: 25, width: 25, height: 25)) //add a cross shaped graphics into your project to use as close button closeButton.setBackgroundImage(UIImage(named: "cross"), forState: UIControlState.Normal) closeButton.addTarget(self, action: Selector("close"), forControlEvents: UIControlEvents.TouchDown) self.view.addSubview(closeButton) interstitial.presentInView(placeHolderView) } } // iAd Delegate Mehtods // When this method is invoked, the application should remove the view from the screen and tear it down. // The content will be unloaded shortly after this method is called and no new content will be loaded in that view. // This may occur either when the user dismisses the interstitial view via the dismiss button or // if the content in the view has expired. func interstitialAdDidUnload(interstitialAd: ADInterstitialAd!){ placeHolderView.removeFromSuperview() closeButton.removeFromSuperview() interstitial = nil cycleInterstitial() } func interstitialAdActionDidFinish(_interstitialAd: ADInterstitialAd!){ placeHolderView.removeFromSuperview() closeButton.removeFromSuperview() interstitial = nil println("called just before dismissing - action finished") } // This method will be invoked when an error has occurred attempting to get advertisement content. // The ADError enum lists the possible error codes. func interstitialAd(interstitialAd: ADInterstitialAd!, didFailWithError error: NSError!){ cycleInterstitial() } //Load iAd interstitial func dislayiAdInterstitial() { //iAd interstitial presentInterlude() } func close() { placeHolderView.removeFromSuperview() closeButton.removeFromSuperview() interstitial = nil } 

Answer 2

using interstitial = InterstitialAd () causes me the same problem as you.

However, if you include the following code in your AppDelegate application:

 UIViewController.prepareInterstitialAds() 

Then you can create an interstitial ad using this:

 viewController.requestInterstitialAdPresentation() 

I am not sure how to get callbacks.

iOS 9.2.1, Xcode 7.2.1, ARC enabled

Please read my post:

I still use the presentFromViewController: method.

Hope this helps! Greetings.
