 * Just upgraded to WP 2.9 and 3.4.9 of AM. Then after adding some new ads, I get
   the following warning in place of where the ad is supposed to be:
 * > Warning: in_array(): Wrong datatype for second argument in …/wp-content/plugins/
   > advertising-manager/lib/OX/Ad.php on line 140
 * Thank you!

 * I tried to cast the second argument in that line as follows:
 * > if (!in_array($post->post_author, **(array)**$authors))
 * That removed the warning but the ad isn’t showing up now.

 * I had the same message. But I could make it work like this: I had to change the
   setting “By author” to one single author. When I set it to “all authors”, the
   error would show. But when I set it to one single author, it worked.

 * I am having the same issue but I only got one author, so it will always default
   to “All Authors”.

 * I’ve updated it, which removes the error. I am, however, still unable to see 
   the ad. I’ve double confirmed my Adsense details, but even when pressing “Preview
   ad”, just a blank page shows.
