Show Thread Enhancements - Display ads in the reply box

First go to your Style Manager and open the skin of your choice.

Expand the Editor Templates and open editor_clientscript

Find

<!-- Editor Scripts -->

Below that add your adsense code like so. (do not copy this adsense ad, instead add your own adsense leaderboard that is 728 x 90) And don't forget to add center tags.

<center>
<script type="text/javascript"><!--
google_ad_client = "pub-*****************";
/* 728x90, created on a certain day */
google_ad_slot = "not saying";
google_ad_width = 728;
google_ad_height = 90;
//-->
</script>
<script type="text/javascript"
src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js">
</script>
</center>

Here is where your new ads will be found.

interesting placement
do you members not mind the ads?

Haven't had one complaint so far and they've been in the editor for about 8 months now

It used to be below the icon legend.... but how often do you find yourself scrolling down that far lol.

That's great, but your members might not share the same opinion as other forum owner's members,

This is an interesting placement, as Loco said. Nice tutorial,

Great idea ..

Tried some testing on our v4.04 and unfortunately, it seems to to cause the right border of the ad to "spill" over the border of the screen when attempting "New Thread"...

Size is correct?

Code is:

<center><script type="text/javascript"><!--
google_ad_client = "pub-xxxxxxx";
/* 728x90, created 1/4/10 */
google_ad_slot = "999999999";
google_ad_width = 728;
google_ad_height = 90;
//-->
</script>
<script type="text/javascript"
src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js">
</script></center>

Can you give me a screenshot or link? Are you using a style that isn't very wide?

Yes the size that I linked is correct, it's a copy from the screenshots I took.

I went with a smaller horizontal Adsense ad and that worked ... thanks ..

Still testing to see if it adds value to our forums or not ...

Appreciate your efforts ... :up:
