Forum advice :: How I placed Adsense on my forum.

[ken123]

How do I put adsense on the last post of the thread? Thanks.

I got the other two to work, but I'd really like to use the one for index.template.php so I can just have it on every page. This is my code, is there anything wrong with it?...

You can install the Ad Management mod to add it the end if posts as well as other places.

for this, are you trying to place this inside index.template.php? Is so, you will need to format it to integrate into the php file. If you can provide a copy of your index.template.php file and let me know where you would like to put it, I can do it for you.

I just want to add it to the top of every page. And yes, I am adding it to index.template.php

/* This template is, perhaps, the most important template in the theme. It
contains the main template layer that displays the header and footer of
the forum, namely with main_above and main_below. It also contains the
menu sub template, which appropriately displays the menu; the init sub
template, which is there to set the theme up; (init can be missing.) and
the linktree sub template, which sorts out the link tree.

The init sub template should load any data and set any hardcoded options.

The main_above sub template is what is shown above the main content, and
should contain anything that should be shown up there.

The main_below sub template, conversely, is shown after the main content.
It should probably contain the copyright statement and some other things.

The linktree sub template should display the link tree, using the data
in the $context['linktree'] variable.

The menu sub template should display all the relevant buttons the user
wants and or needs.

For more information on the templating system, please see the site at:

Thanks for the help but I figured it how to do it on my own.

[ellion]

hi, thanks for all the advice about displaying ads.

does any body here know of a way that i could supress adds on the non topic pages including board index?

i would like to be able to do this due to the high ad impressions on board index and low ctr. plus non topic pages generally show ads that are irrelavant which makes the forum look lame.

[ScottDB]

Would really like to use this in my themes. I'm kind of a newbie and would like to know where to add the adsense ID in the 3rd choice for adds after the first post.

Also I just tried adding this to Classic YaBB SE Theme. I copied the code and placed it after the first </table> inside a <table></table>. Not sure if this is what I was supposed to do
I can't get it to work. Can someone help a newbie out?

[snyperthugs]

I can not get adsense to show up after the first post. I have tried everything, I have no idea why its not working. I am using version 1.1.11 with Theme Ferry Tema. Any help is greatly apreciated

[upperclass09]

Kinda interesting info to share.

Adsense TOS says you can't put ads in pages that are exclusively asking input from the user, which means in vBulletin creating a thread page, replying or editing a post.

This code will put your ads between the navbar and forum/thread listing. Edit your "navbar" template, and after

 How Can I placed Adsense ads Inside First Post

Hello, i want to placed the ads inside the first post, not after the first post(this can be easily achived using the admod)

but how to make the ads appear inside the first post, i mean next to the content of first post

If you really wanna do it, look at display.template.php. Make a line of code like, if this is the first post, echo bla bla bla... Put it where the post should appear. May be at the moderator or ip line or above signature. That should work.

NB: By the way, dont ask me about the code as I am not a coder. This is just an idea if it helps.

ya i know that, but need a example and a bit more help to do it

After some reference, I clean up the code a bit with ad only in the first post. Change float:left; width:270px; and adsense id to your need.
Find:

Code Select Expand

echo '
<div class="inner" id="msg_', $message['id'], '"', '>', $message['body'], '</div>
</div>';
Replace:

Code Select Expand

echo '
<div class="inner" id="msg_', $message['id'], '"', '>';
if ($message['id'] == $context['first_message'])
echo '
<div style="float:left; width:270px;">
<script target="_blank" type="text/javascript"><!--
google_ad_client = "pub-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx";
/* All 250x250 */
google_ad_slot = "8967115259";
google_ad_width = 250;
google_ad_height = 250;
//-->
</script>
<script type="text/javascript"
src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js?target=_blank">
</script></div>';
echo '
', $message['body'], '</div>
</div>';
