I am using a MPTableViewAdPlacer to implement native ads in iOS UITableView. When initialising the MPTableViewAdPlacer, it asks for a MPStaticNativeAdRendererSettings, which needs to implement a viewSizeHandler. However, this is before any ads are fetched, as the name suggested "Static" Native Ad. I am trying to implement one where the cell height can be calculated after getting the adData, such as the title, image...etc. I've been trying to find a way to implement a dynamic cell height but all the sample app, instructions provided by twitter only shows the static height implementation.
Code below:
-(void)setupAdPlacer {
MPNativeAdRequestTargeting *targeting = [MPNativeAdRequestTargeting targeting];
targeting.location = [[CLLocationManager alloc] init].location;
targeting.desiredAssets = [NSSet setWithObjects: kAdMainImageKey, kAdCTATextKey, kAdTextKey, kAdTitleKey, nil];
MPStaticNativeAdRendererSettings *settings = [[MPStaticNativeAdRendererSettings alloc] init];
settings.renderingViewClass = [REPostListViewMoPubAdCell class];
settings.viewSizeHandler = ^(CGFloat maximumWidth) {
return CGSizeMake(maximumWidth, 312.0);
// STATIC HEIGHT
};
MPNativeAdRendererConfiguration *config = [MPStaticNativeAdRenderer rendererConfigurationWithRendererSettings:settings];
self.adPlacer = [MPTableViewAdPlacer placerWithTableView:self.tableView viewController:self adPositioning:positioning rendererConfigurations:@[config]];
self.adPlacer.delegate = self;
[self.adPlacer loadAdsForAdUnitID:@"xxxxxxxxxxx" targeting:targeting];
}
After contacting Twitter tech support, I confirmed that currently iOS does not support dynamic cell height. The only way is to size your views according to the best practice as @Vatsal K pointed out in his comments above.
