Hi All I am trying to use adsense deluxe so that I can have an ad unit appear within the first blog post at the top of the page on every page. Where would I place the code within the template? http://winthemarket.com/internet-marketing-guide Does that make any sense? I know I'm confused.
Looks like you've figured it out. The AdSense Deluxe plugin is used to put AdSense in WordPress content (posts and pages) where Javascripts don't run. To put AdSense at the top of every page you need to insert the AdSense code directly into the either the header, post, or page template.
If you want to make the ad appear in the first post, then you will need to add the adsense deluxe code inside the post, when you write the post. Go to its HTML version and insert the code in the post. You should see it in the post when you publish it.
