Hi

This is another one of my adsense modifications. I hope you like it.


What it does:

This places an adsense linkunit under the last thread on forumdisplay.

Install:

in Forumdisplay template find:



</if>
$threadbits
and add below:



</tbody>
</table>
<table class="tborder" id="threadslist" align="center" border="0" cellpadding="6" cellspacing="1" width="100%">
<tr>
<td class="thead" align="center" <if condition="$show['inlinemod']">colspan="7"<else /> colspan="6"</if>>
<div>
<!-- Adsense linkunit under last thread of forumdisplay start -->
<script type="text/javascript"><!--
google_ad_client = "YOUR PUB ID HERE";
google_alternate_color = "405888";
google_ad_width = 728;
google_ad_height = 15;
google_ad_format = "728x15_0ads_al_s";
google_color_border = "405888";
google_color_bg = "405888";
google_color_link = "FFFFFF";
google_color_text = "FFFFFF";
google_color_url = "FFFFFF";
//-->
</script>
<script type="text/javascript"
src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js">
</script>
<!-- Adsense linkunit under last thread of forumdisplay end -->
</div>
</td>
</tr>
You just need to customize the adsense code marked with:

<!-- Adsense linkunit under last thread of forumdisplay start -->

replace "YOUR PUB ID HERE" with your pub-ID
and change the colors to fit your forum colors

I have this installed and added a condition to not show in private forums, per googles TOS. As a suggestion, might want to include with your next release.

What in googles TOS states, that you are not allowed to show ads in private sections?

It does say that it is not recommended to display adsense behind a login page (Private forums would be considered behind a login page) because relevant ads may not show. So, I apologize for the misunderstanding.

I have no problems with relevant ads showing up in my 'staff' forums.

If Adsense can't determine the content of a thread because of spider restrictions (like in staff forums) adsense serves ads fitting the theme and keywords of your forum in general.

So the ads should be somewhat relevant.

Is it possible to make links with transparent background? I have a thead class with gradient background..

The adsense ad will not be transparent.
I usually pick the middle color of the gradient and make it the bg color of the adsense ad.

This is probably a blatantly obvious question, but where is the Forumdisplay template?

In your admin controll panel, in styles and templates -> your style << >>

StarBuG, could you write how to have this adsense unit under the last message in showthread?
