Can you add ads to posts only on blogger?

    I am with CJ and would like the ads to show up on the individual post pages only if possible. I just realized today that my links section where I have my banners do not show up on these pages, and that is where most my traffic enters. I want an ad on each post, but it will clutter my homepage if i just ad the code to the post. Is this possible with blogger? Is it possible with WP? I am seriously thinking about just switching over now.

    I have played around with it, and I'm sure there is probably a way to do it, but it is over my head. So, I guess I will just start using text links in my posts.

    If I remember right, to put ads into the posts, you have to edit the template and stick them somewhere in the <ItemPage> section within the main content section. Where I had mine, it would show when I viewed an individual post, but would be at the bottom right before the comments section.

    Also, not sure if I'm understanding exactly what your page is like 100%, but you mention that the links aren't shown on the posts. In the template, you can make another section, again using <ItemPage>, but within the #sidebar section. If you currently have your CJ ads in the #sidebar section, they might be under <MainOrArchivePage> right now. Just copy it, paste it a little further, and change <MainOrArchivePage> and </MainOrArchivePage> to <ItemPage> and </ItemPage>.

    Again, no guarantees, and most of this is from memory and looking at what's left of my Blogger blog (I switched to Wordpress), but I hope this helps.

    Right <ItemPage> conditional tag is what you need.
    <ItemPage>
    The Ad
    </ItemPage>
    will show ads only on post pages.
