After all this over I also need help in adding my Google Adsense ad on my forum (on the top left, for example right to AstaHost logo). If anyone here has signed up for the Google Adsense service, can give me the code for making by banner ads transperent because I dont seem to get the right color combination for my Invision Power Board default skin.
Sorry
, I forgot to mention it before, how do I add my Google Adsense code after every post?
Help my appreciated.
Thank you.
I can instruct you about the Google Adsense part... Check out our board at
Antilost.Org. To get the Google Ads in the header beside the logo, you got to do this:
- Login into your IPB Admin CP
- Click the tab Look & Feel
- For the Skin Set you're using, select Edit Template HTML from the dropdown menu beside it.
- Next select All Global HTML
- In the resulting panel, select gloabl_board_header
- Near the top of the code-block, find this code:
CODE
</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src='jscripts/ipb_global.js'></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src='jscripts/ips_menu.js'></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src='{ipb.vars['img_url']}/folder_js_skin/ips_menu_html.js'></script>
<!--ipb.javascript.end-->
<div class="borderwrap">
<div id="logostrip"><a href='{ipb.script_url}'><!--ipb.logo.start--><img src='style_images/<#IMG_DIR#>/logo4.gif' style='vertical-align:top' alt='IPB' border='0' /><!--ipb.logo.end--></a></div>
- Right after that add your google code.. example:
CODE
<div id="googleADS" style="background: #DEF3FF; width: 100%;" align="center">
<script type="text/javascript"><!--
google_ad_client = "YOUR GOOGLE ADSENSE CLIENT ID";
google_ad_width = 728;
google_ad_height = 90;
google_ad_format = "728x90_as";
google_ad_type = "text";
google_ad_channel ="";
google_color_border = "DFF2FD";
google_color_bg = "DFF2FD";
google_color_link = "0000CC";
google_color_url = "008000";
google_color_text = "000000";
//--></script>
<script type="text/javascript"
src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js">
</script>
</div>
Replace the YOUR GOOGLE ADSENSE CLIENT ID with your own ID, but leave the rest alone - to get the exact colour match for the IPB Default Skin, like Astahost or IPB. It's been optimized for that in the 728 x 90 Leaderboard mode for Text-ONLY ADs.
NOTE: You
CANNOT insert Google Adsense Ads after every message in your threads, as Google doesn't permit publication of
more than 3 AD Units or related services in any given page. Which means, you cannot have more than 3 AD Units - in whichever format, or a combination of 3 AD Units
and/or Firefox toolbar download links a
and/or Google Search boxes - in any given page.
I can show you the method to embed a Google AD in every thread right after the
FIRST POST in the thread, as I've done with Antilost. You can follow the instructions in the ZIP I've attached here to get that effect.
