My plan with this is to utilize Google Adsense in the header, forum, and 1 spot in a thread. I don't think I want to use Ad Sharing? Anyway...

1.) For the header/footer advertisement, do I simply go to vB Options > vB Ad Managment (Header and Footer) and then copy my Adsense code into the static box?

2.) Since Google "feeds" the advertisements based upon content, is there a need to copy any other code elsewhere?

3.) Is Google Analytics code different than the Adsense code and, if so, what does it do?

4.) Can I copy the exact same Adsense code into the same sections for my forum and thread settings in the forumbit and threadbit sections to get it to work properly?

5.) Do I have to complete the ?How to add your own custom adcode blocks in 3 minutes? instructions for static Google Adsense code or is this for something else?

Thanks very much for any help!!

1) yes right, I use random in the footer to alternate between text and image ads, I fint it alternate better that way text/images then adsense itself

2) you may use the tags <!-- google_ad_section_start --> <!-- google_ad_section_end --> provided by google to have ads with the higher relevance on words between these 2 tags, but on forums that's not simple to do that's why there is vbseo wich does this automatically

3) Yes its totally different, Ganalytics provides only stats from visitors on your website so you must add the correct code, in the footer or header must be enough

4) yep any code, didnt have any conflict with this

5) something else you dont need this
