No support by the author.

This is the first hack I am releasing on this site, and who knows maybe lots more to come.

What this hack does

It places adsense in the archives into the very best positions for revenue performance.

Instructions

Easy peasy....

1. Import the product
2. Go into Plugin Manager and edit the 3 plugins - line 1 of each allows you to set your google pub-id
3. Thats it, you're done.

Demo

To see this in action visit :

http://www.webforumz.com/lo-fi/f-16.html (archive forum page)
http://www.webforumz.com/lo-fi/t-1627.html (archive thread page)

Enjoy!

PS. If you earn loads more than you can handle, then you can always donate!

Installed. One slight cosmetic problem I see is in forum view. Between 5 and 6 the ad is placed, but number 6 is blank, or is 6 the ad?

6 is the ad....

There was no way to insert the ad at that position without making it an <li> element like the rest.

It stands to reason in almost anyones mind, that the more ads you show, the less chance they will click on a high paying ad.
Not true all the time. I have a site that gets targeted with CPM ads. These either show an image or just one text ad that takes up the whole ad block. So the best way to maximize revenue in my case is to have the maximum amount of ads. That way, when G is showing the targeted banners, there are enough ad bocks left over to show contextual too.

In a case like mine, not having the max amount of ads would cost you about 30% in revenue.

The bottom line's the bottom line

So basically you want a footer ad too... is that right?

bugs:
Ads are not displayed on archive when viewing a category (without any threads) which has several sub-forums.

6th thread on archive is not visible not sure why ?

There are many validation errors as well.
1 Error on Index Page

53 Errors on forum view

Your forums archive threads are validating fine, but throws error on ours.

I have already covered this.... IT IS displayed. The ad itself is number 6, and the real number 6 is now number 7.

What other plugins do you have that operate on the archive?

Same here, validation errors when this plugin is active, none when it is inactive. I have no other mods/plugins installed for the archive.
