I made this template mod for my medical Forum and I decided to share this with you.
This is a very efficient placement for an adsense link unit, maybe the most efficient one for a vBulletin forum

What this hack does:
This modification displays the adsense Link Unit below the forum navigation so that it looks like a second row of navigation options.

See screenshots

I have this code running for nearly a year now on my forum and google said it was ok. But to make sure you should contact google and ask them if it complies with their ToS
NO WARRANTIES

How to install:

In template navbar search:
Code:
<!-- / nav buttons bar -->
and add ABOVE:
Code:
<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="100%" align="center" style="border-top-width:0px">
<tr align="center">
   <td class="vbmenu_control">
    <!-- Adsense Link Unit Code 725x15 - 5 Ads -->
    <script type="text/javascript"><!--
    google_ad_client = "YOUR PUB ID HERE";
    google_ad_width = 728;
    google_ad_height = 15;
    google_ad_format = "728x15_0ads_al_s";
    google_color_border = "738FBF";
    google_color_bg = "738FBF";
    google_color_link = "ffffff";
    google_color_text = "000000";
    google_color_url = "000000";
    //-->
    </script>
    <script type="text/javascript"
      src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js">
    </script>
    <!-- Adsense Link Unit Code 725x15 - 5 Ads -->
   </td>
  </tr>
    </table>
You now just need to customize the adsense code marked with:
<!-- Adsense Link Unit Code 725x15 - 5 Ads -->

replace "YOUR PUB ID HERE" with your pub-ID
and fit the colors of adsense to your color scheme

Demo: www.elternfragen.net

I hope you like it.

For another good adsense placement check out my mod:

Adsense as second post. 2 Sizes - Big for guests, small for members

Please click install if you use this mod.


I also would like some feedback about how it is working out for you


Changelog:
v1.00 - 2007/07/22: NO CHANGES, just removed my Pub-ID from the hack!

The code does work, if it didn't on your site then you did something wrong

That is the basic of html templates and adsense.

However other placements won't be that effective as this one

Nice Mod

Is there a way to help the adsense better reflect the content of the site.
One of my sites the eyesbehind.com is about conspiracies and that kind of content but the adsense is showing content for eye products and things like that.

Thanks :erm:

Nevermind I was impatient, I am now reflecting Aliens and all that good stuff.
Thanx
