    Correct you can only have the ads on the forum pages themselves.

    Any pages without content can't have Adsense ads. This includes CP, log-in pages, exit pages, entrance pages, etc.

    Someone posted a code here that you wrap around your Adsense codes to keep it from showing in non-content pages, but I don't have it at the moment, sorry.

    WOW... so when you first enter a forum you CANT have a google ad on that page...?

    How about on the Forums list page(prior to getting into the forum you may choose)??

    Well, if your forum entry page is just a page where you enter your log-in and password, then no, it doesn't qualify as a page with content. Content is everything with postings, thread listings, etc.

    FYI: here's that code I was talking about; just put your Adsense code into the area as specified:

    <if condition="THIS_SCRIPT == 'showthread' or THIS_SCRIPT == 'index' or THIS_SCRIPT == 'forumdisplay' or THIS_SCRIPT == 'search'">
    <!-- Google Adsense Code -->
    </if>
    Code (markup):
