Google adverts not showing on my theme?

[Bluefin221]

Really looking for some help with this, my theme is heavily customised however I cannot get the google adverts to show up, I checked against the default theme and all that was missing was the following.

{vb:raw ad_location.ad_navbar_below}
{vb:raw ad_location.global_below_navbar}

I have added it and still the adverts don't show, they do not show on the footer or indeed the navbar page which shows directly under the navbar part of the site.

I have included my navbar code to see if someone else can see where I am going wrong.

<style>
.navtabs li a.navtab {

Have you got any adblocker on your browser. If we can get a link to your site

[Seven Skins]

I can see ads on this (http://www.completegaming.net/)site ... if that is the site in question.

[ForceHSS]

See them as well on that site looks like he has some kind of adblocker on his browser

[Bluefin221]

No, the ads show as I have called them in an iframe, but I want them through the actual site as intended by vBulletin itself, because since I switched theme and added through iframe my revenue has more than halved.

[ozzy47]

If they show in a default style, and not the custom one, you need to contact the style dveloper and have them fix the problems with the coding of the style. :)

[ForceHSS]

They seem to be in the default location on your custom style for me if the link in post 3 is your site

Yeah as he stated:

But he wants them out of the iframe.

[ForceHSS]

I see Ozzy I thought he wanted them in the default location

[ozzy47]

Also if this is google ads, he will get banned from them.

AdSense code may not be altered, nor may the standard behavior, targeting or delivery of ads be manipulated in any way that is not explicitly permitted by Google. This includes but is not limited to the following: clicking Google ads may not result in a new browser window being launched, nor may Google ads be placed in an IFRAME.

Hence why I want to change. I want to get rid of the iframe, the theme developer cannot help as that is me, I customised this theme beyond recognition. But for the life of me I cannot get the ads to show by default the way vBulletin intends.

[ozzy47]

I would start by installing the theme you modified as it came from the developer, and see if the ads show in the style the way the original developer coded the style. If the do, then you know it is a issue with your changes, if they don't show, then it is a issue with the original style.

Cam someone tell me what is the proper code to actually get these showing on the navbar to make sure I'm doing it correctly and not imagining things, tried to fix this a few times but its not happening for me.
