Finalising setup

You can create several ad sources within the same yield group. Once you are done creating them - you should see a final waterfall with your networks and newly created BidMachine yield partners.


If you want to change the prices of created ad sources - you should not only change the eCPM but also change bm_pf value in the parameters of it.
