[Forum] How to add Google Adsense code to VB Mobile style?

[Fergal]

Are there any guides on how to add Google Adsense ads to the VB mobile style?

I've inserted the PHP code that I got from Adsense into;

Ad Location Templates > ad_archive_above_content1

But the ad is not displaying on the mobile version of my site. How do I fix that?

Thanks!

Edit, sorry forgot to add I got the error message below when I inserted the code:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_ENCAPSED_AND_WHITESPACE, expecting T_STRING or T_VARIABLE or T_NUM_STRING in/var/www/vhosts/[removed].com/httpdocs/includes/adminfunctions_template.php(5436) : eval()'d code on line 3

[Fergal]

Bump.

[Fergal]

Anyone.

[Trevor Hannant]

What exactly is the code you're trying to add?

[Fergal]

Thanks Trevor.

Truly sorry! My mistake, confused AdSense with analytics, I'm coming off very little sleep. I was wondering why the there was AdSense in you php code in the first post. Lol.

Maybe Trevor can delete the post?

There's a few issues here...

1) You can't put PHP in templates. You can put HTML or JavaScript in templates.
2) I've never seen Google supply you with PHP code. Every adsense ad I make they supply me with JavaScript code
3) The template ad_archive_above_content1 shows up only in your Forum Archive, which isn't part of the Mobile Style. There are only 2 ad location templates available in the mobile style.

What you need to do is get the javascript code from Google, it will look something like this:

<script type="text/javascript"><!--
google_ad_client = "ca-pub-99999999999999999999";
/* 120x600, BOP5's Ad */
google_ad_slot = "9999999999";
google_ad_width = 120;
google_ad_height = 600;
//-->
</script>
<script type="text/javascript"
src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js">
</script>

And then go to Admin CP -> Styles & Templates -> Style Manager -> Mobile Style -> Edit Templates -> Ad Location Templates.... choose one of the 2 and paste the code into it.

Hello there!



Google Mobile Content (Ads for mobile gives code exact in php format)





===========







==============



How do I add this under footer section of my mobile template?

[BirdOPrey5]

If the code is in .php format it can't be added to a template.



Please post some of the code if you can in a new post (not a comment) and use the [CODE] BB Code to show it.

[Fergal]

Joe, I've posted the code in post #5. Is it too much to ask that VB's mobile style would be compatible with Google Adsense mobile ad code?
