I usually always code my Adsense code into my site, but I'm getting tired of recoding it every time I change my theme. Do any of you have any good suggestions on Adsense plugins that work? I tried All in One Adsense and YPN and it doesn't seem to work. Where the ads are suppose to be, I'm getting white blocks. I have version 2.7 Thanks
Try wp-simple-adsense-insertion http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wordpress-plugin-for-simple-google-adsense-insertion/
adsense code will take 10 minitues or so to start showing ads if you put new ads. And I use slayers ad integration plugin, http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/slayers-ad-integration/ It is easy to add ads, to blog. It has 3 options, infront of post, middle of post and after the post to place the ads. can also place inside the theme also.
Here are few best adsense plugins" aDSENse deluxe ADMAN Adsense manager. But i will say placing ad code in template is best practice rather than using plugin.
You should use adman, it's an easy plugin to insert adsense code and no complicated settings... http://wp.uberdose.com/2006/11/05/adman/
The reason I ask is I haven't found a good one that puts the ads in the right sidebar, might be a problem with my theme tho.
did you check author advertising? http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/author-advertising-plugin/ This plugin will help you put ads in the sidebar using widgets. It also allows us to share the adsense revenue with the authors(if you need).
Adsense plugins will insert the code into the posts only. If you want to put adsense in the template you need to do it manually!
I think using a plugin is the best way... One of the reason; If your ctr is high and it looks like you're been click bomb, example 8000 clicks in 10000 views, it's 80%, and Google will sure ban you! So you might want to "disable" all you ads for that site when it even reach 10% of ctr... You know... Just in case...
I had the same problem, til I discovered the fix. I was running firefox with the adblock plus plugin. Doh! Blocks google and YPN ads too... No, I'm not blonde. But sometimes I think I should be! :/
Thanks everyone for the info, I decided to just code it in to my template again. It seemed like my best option.
I think you'll find that all the plugins are very buggy. If they haven't been for all the people posting above it's because they haven't used them in a manner of areas throughout their blog. I have tried every plugin mentined above and at best some of them work some of the time. Not ideal. We had to add a float right tag , a DIV tag, to get any of them to work properly and consistently...I tried about 10 plugins and all of the ones mentioned above and they were all flawed ...so I suggest all the posters keep an eye on their sites. You can be easily fooled into thinking they are working unless you try doing several different operations with them...and in several browsers also.
